Is there any substantial web app written htmx?

I find htmx ideal for things that should be static to begin with, and for things that are dynamic, I fail to see how it can handle synchronisation?

I believe Github is using similar technology and their notifications indicators and counter are almost always broken and out of sync.

I'm using htmx in the hkknx web app to control smart home accessories.

And it doesn't load, guess what would load just fine? a React app hosted on a cdn.
Yeah, it is interesting that most people who promote htmx are not "insiders" (for the lack of a better word that isn't loaded like "expert").
I believe Hotwire for Ruby on Rails uses a lot of HTMX under the hood.
