What is the coolest, unknown(-ish) plugin that you're using that other people could benefit from?
Switch.vim makes pretty easy to quick switch between definitions of something. I use it a lot to manage a list of to-dos while I'm working and quick switch between "TODO", "DOING" and "DONE"

Alternate Toggler - A very small plugin for toggling "boolean" values.
Works well for the simple usecase it tries to solve. If somebody wants even more customisability with the ability to define much more complex patterns then https://github.com/AndrewRadev/switch.vim is an alternative. It can also cycle through a list instead of just toggling between two values.

Please, help with highlights.
those are gitsigns. read :h gitsigns-highlight-groups. i think the first 3 ones (gitsignsadd, gitsignschange, gitsignsdelete) would need their background cleared.

Algebraic data types in Lua (Almost) post
Lack of tooling/LSP support compared to Lua. A rather popular neovim plugin, gitsigns, recently switched from teal to regular lua for (among other reasons) the tooling.

Your favourite Neovim plugins?
https://github.com/lewis6991/satellite.nvim absolutely amazing choices, visual economy, integration with gitsigns and builtin vim features (marks).

Hacky way to return to original window after using gitsign's `diffthis`. There must be a better way to do this.
It's also nice to ask him directly.

Async module in Lua for Nvim
For a long time, I have been searching for solutions for asynchrony in Neovim, but what interested me the most was the one provided by gitsigns.nvim. Therefore, I decided to turn it into a separate module to make it easier to use async in Neovim. I have already created some usage examples.

[New plugin] deadcolumn.nvim -- gradually show you colorcolumn as you type
Oh, the symbols are provided by gitsigns.nvim and I have set :h statuscolumn so that they appear to the right of the line numbers. The settings are done in plugin/statuscolumn.lua. I put custom single-file scripts under plugin and ftplugin, where they serve as light-weighted mini plugins, you can even find the prototype of deadcolumn.nvim there :)
