New UUID Formats from IETF
Nice to see another implementation which takes a bit different approach. Just for your information, there's now Draft 03 which changes the format a little bit. I kinda liked the arbitrary precision of Draft 02, but the newer one just requires millisecond precision and then basically leaves it up to the implementation how to handle the generation of multiple UUIDs within the same millisecond.

What are some alternatives?
When comparing vanity-uuid and prototypes you can also consider the following projects:
uuid6-python - New time-based UUID formats which are suited for use as a database key
Hashids.java - Hashids algorithm v1.0.0 implementation in Java
uuid7 - UUID version 7, which are time-sortable (following the Peabody RFC4122 draft)
dart-uuid - Generate RFC4122(v1,v4,v5,v6,v7,v8) UUIDs
uuid - Generate and parse UUIDs.
brain - Swyx's second brain!
spec - The canonical spec for ulid
presents - Like hashids, but based on block ciphers
