kevmurr/mike

A lightly-tuned Mike fork from kevmurr, nudging the storage layer toward broader S3-compatible deployments.

Very early days - one small infrastructure tweak, last pushed the day before MikeWatch first noticed the fork.

This is an early-stage fork of Mike maintained by kevmurr. Only one thread of work has shown up so far, and it's a small but telling one: making the object-storage region configurable rather than fixed, so the app can run against S3-compatible providers that are pickier about region values than Cloudflare R2 is.

There isn't a rebrand here, no new product surface, no shift in audience. If you tried this fork today, it would look and behave like Mike - the difference is operational, aimed at the person deploying it rather than the person using it.

Direction-wise, the signal is faint but coherent: kevmurr appears to be smoothing the deployment story, likely with a specific hosting target in mind. Worth a click through to GitHub if you're evaluating Mike for an environment where R2 isn't the obvious storage choice.
