good catch. it should be fixed now for users that have those settings turned on. much appreciated!
I hope you see this comment:
Please revert the "fix" that makes it so your demo is not seen at all.

I assume this is mostly a mac thing? The effort to get this up and running on debian appears to be a bit more work than normal.
I imagine package managers will start picking this up shortly since it just released publicly.

$ git clone git@github.com:ghostty-org/ghostty.git
$ cd ghostty
$ zig build -Doptimize=ReleaseFast
$ ./zig-out/bin/ghostty
This is a neat blog post explaining part of the magic:
There is a glitch in the web page because the macOS link doesn't provide any package to download.
The problem is that the announcement page goes to [1] where it should go to [2] (a simple issue using os=macosx instead of os=macos)
brew install --cask factor also works
[1] https://builds.factorcode.org/release?os=macosx&cpu=x86.64
[2] https://builds.factorcode.org/release?os=macos&cpu=x86.64
Fixed, thanks for reporting!
It was correct on the main Factor website, but my blog was using the old links before we fixed the macos rename.

Not a good showcase of Factor code. All variable names 1 letter, seemingly simply chosen subsequent letters in the alphabet, instead of any names, that would indicate what the code does.
I agree, I've written much better Factor code. This was mainly to get a matching test case working simply...

Factor looks cool, but what's it really about? Can someone who loves the language explain why?
I'm a bit biased as I've been working on and with Factor for 15 years and I am also the author of the linked article and "Re: Factor" blog.
I find Factor to have a compelling sweet spot of concise syntax, dynamic features, and (relatively) high performance. But in particular, I think we've done a good job with a few things:
1) Making the language very "clickable", so you can introspect and dig down into all function and type definitions.
2) Provide a lot of batteries-included in the standard library.
3) Make it super easy to accept contributions, there's a part of the distribution that is "extra" and has low barrier to entry and then we commit to keeping code working and promoting things to the main standard library when they are useful/documented/tested enough.
Years ago I made a high res greyscale version of the drunken bishop:
