Mintlify sponsors one of my open source projects, express-rate-limit, and we use their service to host the docs for it. So I'm probably biased, but I've honestly been pretty happy with it overall - I'm thinking about using it for some of my other projects.

I think the best thing I can say about it is this: Mintlify helps us write better docs. Before Mintlify, we had a humongous readme plus a few one-off articles in the wiki. After switching the Mintlify, we started organizing things better, beginning with a less overwhelming readme.

I found out about this hack when they sent me an email yesterday. I looked through the git history (edit: and github activity), but nothing seems awry.

It sucks, but they're a pretty small business, and I think they're handling it reasonably well.

Git history or GitHub event history? You can easily push a malicious commit forged to have the same author and short hash.


Good point. I only looked through the git history initially, but I've now looked through both. Same conclusion.
