That sounds like an interesting read. Before I switched to Linux I thought of making an app that watches driver websites and either notifies or pulls updates for you to install.
Short of some sort of user maintained database of download links and support page links/product number (for database lookup), I don’t think I could have scaled it at any real capacity. I wonder if GitHub frowns on a project using it as a big database of yaml or json files.
An important context that’s missing from the blog post is Keivan Beigi is one of the core contributor of Sonarr, a popular app in the *arr scene. Microsoft probably realized it late after offering him a job, got cold feet and ghost him.
