The way the Rhombus / Racket community does libraries has to change. That whole package site has to change. Being a contributor on there exposes you to a steady stream of fraud garbage. There's nothing to promote the top libraries as the top libraries.
I experimented with Rhombus some time ago (most especially with Shplait). Is there much new with Shplait? Something I remember struggling with was trying to use racket libraries in Rhombus/Shplait

I wish they had chosen a more "modern" name for the language.
What would be a modern name for a language?
Honestly a unique searchable name is better. I type in racket and results are mixed with tennis and I need to suffix "Language"
well, i also have to type "rhombus language" to get relevant results for the rhombus language
.NET/.NET Core/.NET Framework migration is painful because of this. VS/VSCode is sometimes only possible with AI’s help.
