i thought this was some kind of API where you could share your uses tags in a standardized way like other distributed social features so that other sites can aggregate them and show them like uses.tech does.
but this is just a static site that will accumulate a lot of stale data once people lose interest to maintain their entries.
it would not be so hard. a uses.txt on your website listing tag and description.
and a curated list of urls to all these uses.txt files that are periodically scanned for updates.

Not a lot of history that I see at first blush, but I didn't look terribly hard. FWIW, Google "uses page" turns up a few other results as well.
