I know nearly nothing about ARMO, and I have nothing against you, the company you founded and are CTO of (ARMO), or ARMO providing an open source tool. I appreciate that you have made this work open source.

Still, some of us on hackernews dislike advertising. I 100% agree with everything you've written in this comment, but as I mentioned in the comment you're replying to, the GitHub issue also contains an ad for the same tool - it just doesn't make it front and center, allows for any competitors to make their own comments on an open platform, and it feels less biased. Less advertisey.

But as it stands now, it just feels different
