I've seen it elsewhere, but it's definitely annoying. For example KDE's build assistant tool:

  $ kde-builder --help
  ...
    Supported command-line parameters:              https://kde-builder.kde.org/en/cmdline/supported-cmdline-params.html
  ...

This is supported on Codeberg (and Forgejo instances in general) via the "AGit workflow", see https://forgejo.org/docs/latest/user/agit-support/

> Basically nobody ever died from leaky pipes

I know you're probably intending to only remark on leaky water pipes, but:

The New London School explosion was caused by a leaky pipe. It killed 295 students and teachers, and led to the inclusion of smelly thiol in natural gas, as well as the Texas Engineering Practice Act.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_London_School_explosion

Even leaky water pipes kill people - just google Legionnaires disease.

A drip or stream from a leaky pipe isn't gonna do it. You need to get the bacteria into the respiratory tract to get legionaires disease. And even then a specific temperature water is necessary for it to grow.

A dehumidifier (or an HVAC system, which is where the name of the disease came from) is more likely to give you legionnaires disease than even the most substandard plumbing.

It's not meant to be a link, rather "X (formerly Twitter)"

If I may jump in, here's a neat one:

Is `guix pack` not sufficient for this?

https://guix.gnu.org/manual/1.5.0/en/html_node/Invoking-guix...

No, it produces a tree of libraries that you have to untar on the host machine. If you dont have root, then unpacking to /gnu/store is impossible

I checked and it looks like the root-required issue has been addressed with a --relocatable flag, and there are a few options as well for needing to untar, e.g. producing an appimage format output.

I think I tried with this flag, but either it was incompatible with a cross-compile target, or it did not support my target arch properly

They are the ecosystem shapers, let them figure it out.

Often I've seen font websites have a sort of "font hello world" preview image, and adding something like that here would be great. Apparently they're called "type specimens".
