Does it bug anyone else when people come out promoting their "new" thing that has used the name of an existing well established thing? https://github.com/solo-io/gloo like... how hard is it to search and see the name's already taken?

Collective communications library with various primitives for multi-machine training. (by pytorch)
These are two separate libraries that do very different things but share the same name. They are also written in two separate languages. That is a sizable gap between them, and reusing names happens often with libraries. Gloo (rust-wasm, this post) is also not new. Though, relative to Gloo (Go, solo-io), it is newer. But, there is also a Github repo even older than Gloo (solo-io): https://github.com/facebookincubator/gloo. As well, even if these were for some odd reason all about wasm, none of them are actually that popular. solo-io Gloo has the most stars (though that isn't the best metric of popularity, since it is relative to the community that actually uses it), but 3k simply isn't that much. There is certainly a good argument to look down on libraries that reuse popular library names, but this isn't really the case here. Both started not too long after each other (solo-io would not have most of the stars it currently has when Gloo-Rust started), are in separate languages (thus separate communities), and do very separate things.
