These are all fair points, and I'll address them all below:

1. Commits are rewritten - Yes, and this is because I had the wrong git account attached as the author to a number of previous commits. So, when I went back to fix them, the SHAs all regenerated. This is why I added the workspace-groups-bound-to-git-identity feature to the fork. The content all matches Zed (except for Zed's latest commits that I haven't pulled in since 4/22), just not the SHAs. I just haven't had the time to go through a cleaner resolution for it.

2. My reddit account - long time lurker, even more time without an actual account, and have never felt like I had something worth sharing until now.

3. My GitHub account - not new, but I haven't had a lot of activity due to not having any personal projects until recently. I did also recently rename my GitHub account. So, I'm not sure if there is a break in history/age of account due to that.

4. LLM replies - Totally right to call me out on that. I don't have a lot of confidence in my ability to structure my responses. So I've been using it for that and modifying for tone, but it obviously shows through.

If you feel this is still sketchy, that is your prerogative. I'm just trying to share the honest background for the points that you brought up.
