Then Steve Yegge went off the multi-agent deep end and it became a mess of feature creep. Month old versions of beads databases needed massive updates and the system became more and more complex.
Now I just use Github issues instead.
I'm seriously surprised he got as much traction as he did with those projects.
Beads was mostly fine at the beginning, but gastown was just a complete jank-stival
It almost never actually worked. The getting started never got you a project which was correctly configured - and if you did try to fix it... Well, it stopped working a few hours to days later when another vibe delivery crashed the party
Also, just keeping it open on idle - with no interactions - churned through the $100 subscription 5 hour session within roughly 2 hours. Just to reiterate: with no interactions beyond having the mayor open
I dimly remember someone mentioning that he used the users sessions to work on gastown itself. Dunno if that was true or fake news as that was just a random commentors claim - and I already moved on from that experiment by the time I read that.
