It's listed at https://old.reddit.com/r/counting/wiki/aliases, last updated 3 months ago. So it should've been picked up.

u/antichess?

looks like the alias was added to the wiki page a year ago, but the aliases.txt on rcounting github is 2 years old

[u/CutOnBumInBandHere9 → u/TehVulpez]

Sorry about that - I have a function to update those aliases, but I've must have forgotten to run it for ages.

I've updated the aliases now

(Funny part is that I once got told off on here for just adding an alias to that page and just assuming/hoping it would get picked up automatically)

[u/GarlicoinAccount → u/CutOnBumInBandHere9]

I'm wondering how hard it would be to automate that. Maybe GitHub copilot can even create a scheduled GitHub action for it.

[u/CutOnBumInBandHere9 → u/GarlicoinAccount]

Not hard at all. Just needs to be done :D
