Yes, this is a duplicate post created by a new account who seems to have copied my post from <https://lobste.rs/s/hjipba>. I have emailed the moderators to ask if they can mark this as duplicate and merge the comments here into the other thread.
Thank you for the clarification and also for reaching out on IRC. I'm glad to know it was you who posted this here.
At one point there were three duplicate posts on the front page, all referring to the same project. I was concerned that if HN users flag them all as duplicates, then all three might lose the front page presence at the same time, so I reached out to the moderators to resolve the duplicates.
Unfortunately this one ended up being marked as a duplicate, even though it had gained more attention than my original announcement post at the time. So thank you for sharing it here. I really appreciate it, as it helped bring some initial visibility to this project and helped it grow.
Comments moved thither. Thanks!

N.b. I am human and we know each other. It's unfortunate that all the link aggregators struggle with duplicates (understandable why, though) :(
