Got another MR merged in a KDE repo, this time its in its CI utilities where we temporarily exclude the Pdf doc gen of certain languages which don't display correctly so that it can be fixed sometime later.
Thank you Johnny for helping me ease into the repo with this task :)

this is amazing. Personal pref: terminal man pages are an eyesore and are difficult to skim through.
you could also create an alias for this command however the pages aren't exactly pretty
alias webman="man --html=firefox"
I may have a cool idea rn

TIL about the diff b/w a throttle and debounce.
Both are used to reduce the number of times a fn is called by an event that fires repeatedly.
Throttle calls the fn at regular intervals
Debounce calls the fn at a particular instant (either the start/end of the event firing)
