It's not like Goyal doesn't accept any patches [1].
I don't use kitty myself, but many people who do seem to love it. I've come around to feel that this is truly a maintainer's judgment call. After all, they are almost always stuck maintaining the code no matter who wrote it initially, and they know better than anyone else what code they're personally comfortable maintaining.
More generally, if you like a piece of software enough, you're implicitly trusting the maintainers' judgment. You're certainly not reviewing every single line of code they write to see if you agree with it.
The miserable survival rate of hostile forks also demonstrates that even if people care enough to fork over one issue, they rarely care enough to maintain the overall project long-term, despite implicitly asking the original maintainers to do the exact same thing.

He is probably most well know for creating FastAPI that I taught to some of my clients and Typer that I've never used.

xonsh – Python-powered, cross-platform, Unix-gazing shell
I really like the buku terminal bookmark manager. https://github.com/jarun/buku I like that I can just `man buku` when I don't understand something and I can actually find the answer I'm looking for.
Discovering the drop down console was a revelation.

Project mention: Zellij – A terminal workspace with batteries included (tmux alternative) | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-02-05Using tmux + tmuxp[1] you can load a pre-configured session and execute arbitrary shell commands for the session, window and pane. I use this to set up shells and editors in the correct dirs (and/or hosts), load lang environments, set env vars and source some zsh aliases and functions that I only want per project. The end result is that I can set up my dev environment (shells with different environments, neovim windows, test runner, various linters I don't wannt integrate into nvim) with a single "tmuxp load ".

Project mention: Show HN: Another CLI tool to browse Hacker News | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-11I built a little CLI tool to browse HN. I wanted a little project I could write so I could brush up on golang. It works pretty okay -- but nowhere near as feature-rich or polished as something like https://github.com/donnemartin/haxor-news
For small apps, I may choose a TUI (Terminal User Interface). Curses for Python is very lightweight, but quite low level and difficult to use for anything more than a very simple interface (if your app tries to draw outside of the drawing area, the app crashes, so you have to carefully manage every detail). Textual and asciimatics are both mature TUI frameworks that provide a higher level and more Pythonic way to create TUI's.
