Browsing MELPA sorted by downloads, I discovered anzu today. It's a neat package that shows the number of matches for the current isearch.

IPv6 adoption is approaching half!

Shower thought: using a tool like cargo-semver, could you build a package registry where the uploader never chooses the version number?
E.g. your last release was 5.2025-09-13 and you've just changed a type, so today's release is 6.2025-11-05.
I really like the MELPA model of packaging directly from git. It solves the problem of forgetting to release something -- just merge a PR and you're done.
It also makes version number bumps much less important.
You could go even further in a statically typed language and also figure out when breaking changes occur.
