it gained 14k+ stars on github in a year (development started in 2023 july).

isn't it a bit suspicious?

maybe it's nothing, but this just caught my eye

That's because it works very well, and the main developer is super active (I've contributed and made some plugins so have interacted with them a fair bit)

Starhacking is a thing. When you see words like “blazing fast” & emoji all over the README it show the maker is treating the code as marketing—& MS GitHub is a social media platform with algorithms.
