Thank you for using the project!
On the concern of it would be harder to setup, I think it would be easier in fact, you would simply curl the Go or C statically generated binary to your path and would alleviate the need for jq or curl to be installed alongside.
I think the reason I haven’t made the switch yet is I like Bash (even though my script is getting pretty big), and in a way it’s a testament to what’s possible in the language. Projects like https://github.com/acmesh-official/acme.sh really show the power of Bash.
That and I think the project would need a name change, and discord.sh as a name gets the point across better than anything I can think of.
