Not sure 600,000 commits by one person in a year, most concentrated in a few months over the year, counts as “slowly”.
Where do you see 600k commits? Are you talking about 600k lines of code? If so, the project includes libraries in the `lib` folder, notably a large screen library called `tft_espi` which must be 500k lines on its own (which has since been removed, that's why you see -500k lines)
I know the codebase inside and out, feel free to ask
There are 1300 commits. What is everyone smoking today?
