I gave feedback that that page would be improved by adding some context as to why a new terminfo is necessary and what you lose by falling back to xterm-256color, which is what I’m inclined to do in my ssh config.

to expound a bit, most things like files do have finalizers that will clean things up at GC, but it’s best practice to explicitly release resources like this when you don’t need em anymore.
missing enum is my #1 wishlist item for the language, especially after all the rust i’ve been writing.

One issue I think is that it makes drive-by harassment easier, and could have a chilling effect on speech. If I don’t know you but you engage with my post and I see you’ve been labeled, I can maybe use that info to harass or demean you in a specifically hurtful way.
