Hey guys, I made StarCLI a month ago, and I hope GitHub repo hunters that lives in the terminal can find this useful.
I know there's a problem with the GitHub API not returning more than the first 40k(?) stars. Did you work around this or would this have the same limitation as similar projects?
Search by topic would be nice.
I saw the issue you opened, thanks
Why is the number of forks indicated by a knife and fork? Is there no unicode character for just a fork?
I did try to find one but I don't think I could get a better one other than fork and knife, so I kept it that way. If there are better emojis please let me know

Thanks, I will consider that
I wish I could search GitHub but also deduplicate the forks.
What do you mean deduplicate the forks?
If I am searching for a specific term like "const specific = require('foobar').Foo" globally, and if there is the one match I am looking for along with another match that I don't care about but with hundreds of forks, it is a huge ordeal to dig for the one I am looking for.
