Want to turn your plain log file output into a colorful format for easier reading? Try bat instead of cat:
cat /path/to/app.log # old
bat /path/to/app.log # wow
BTW, the bat or batcat is written in Rust lang and needs to be installed using your favorite package manager like APT, DNF, APK, PKG, port, etc on your Linux, macOS or Unix. Examples https://www.cyberciti.biz/open-source/bat-linux-command-a-cat-clone-with-written-in-rust/ It is a free app and I love it. Give it a try.

Once upon a time, SourceForge was a leader in FLOSS code hosting. It lost the battle to GitHub and others. Now GitHub is part of a bigger corporation with a questionable history. I guess history repeats itself. This is why FLOSS folks should build its own core infrastructure with 0 dependencies on big tech.
Maybe good folks from the EU can provide grants. I don't know, and I don't have answers to all the questions, nor can I (or anyone) predict the future.
