It it was a bit surreal to see it happen live. GH project went to 70k stars and got a trademark cease‑and‑desist from Anthropic, had to rebrand in one night and even got pulled into an account takeover by crypto people.
I made a timeline of what happened if you want the details: https://www.everydev.ai/p/the-rise-fall-and-rebirth-of-clawd...
Did you follow it as it was going on, or are you just catching up now?
My twitter timeline was dominated by it for a few days and would see periodic star stats posted, but certainly didn't monitor the repo.
I've seen the author's posts over the last while, unrelated to this project, but I bet this had quite the impact on his life
