The TL;DR doesn’t really say what this new pager offers compared to less; it seems to mostly be a learning project:
> lore supports only a subset of what less does, but in a more intuitive and useful manner for my daily activity. I also find value in understanding it from the ground up, bytes to terminal views, and continuing to refine it as I learn more about what I actually want and need in a terminal pager.

I really like this post! I think it's the clearest explanation I've seen of the different characteristics of utf-8 strings

For a bubbletea application I'd expect more bubbles and tea there. But still, nice project.

Interesting project.
What was the main limitation in existing pagers like less that pushed you to build a new one?

From the title I thought it’s about a dead man’s switch.
