I've just noticed that xmenu got featured in a video by a famous Linuxer youtuber: here.

It was my first project and it is very nice to have it featured by a popular youtuber. But it's also scary since xmenu was such a small project and now there are a lot of people using it and wanting more from it.
And now that it is more popular, there are issues being reported and features being requested.
The most requested feature is to add support for fallback fonts (more than one font), but it is a pita to do with plain xft. I've just looked at the code of Suckless' dmenu and its function for drawing text with multiple fonts is gigantic.
I will probably rather use pango or move xmenu to xcb and use venam's fonts for xcb.

But overall I got very excited when they called me: "hey, have you watched the last DT's video about xmenu?".
I'm just sharing my euphoria in this post, hehe.
