+Wish you could show npm, gem, mvn, Gradle, NuGet, or GHCR badges? Or just query for the download counts? This endpoint makes that possible, using only free GitHub resources; the GitHub Packages API doesn't, and has never, exposed the publicly-available metadata that other registries provide.
 
 ## The Endpoint
 
 ```py
 https://ipitio.github.io/backage/OWNER/[REPO/[PACKAGE]].FORMAT
 ```
 
-If this is [`ipitio/backage`](https://github.com/ipitio/backage), all you have to do is star the repo to have GitHub generate this additional endpoint for your public packages! Otherwise, you can add yourself as described [below](#manual-actions).
+If this is [`ipitio/backage`](https://github.com/ipitio/backage), all you have to do is **star the repo to have GitHub generate this additional endpoint for your public packages!** A service ran by GitHub will add them to its circular priority queue within the next few hours and update the [closed-loop system](https://github.com/<GITHUB_OWNER>/<GITHUB_REPO>/releases/latest). Additionally watching and forking the repo, and following the owner, are ways to increase your priority. Yes, I know, but these are the signals that can be automatically processed. Otherwise, if this is a fork or you'd prefer an alternative method, see [below](#manual-actions).
 
-A service ran by GitHub will add them to its circular priority queue within the next few hours and update the [closed-loop system](https://github.com/<GITHUB_OWNER>/<GITHUB_REPO>/releases/latest). Once it does so, replace the parameters with their respective values, scoping to your parsing needs, then access the latest data however you want. Use something like [shields.io/json](https://shields.io/badges/dynamic-json-badge) or [shields.io/xml](https://shields.io/badges/dynamic-xml-badge) to make badges like the ones above or the one [here](https://github.com/badges/shields/issues/5594#issuecomment-2157626147).
+Once added, replace the parameters above with their respective values, scoping to your parsing needs, then access the latest data however you want.

 > [!NOTE]
 > The format can be either `json` or `xml`. You'll need the XML endpoint to evaluate expressions, like filters, with Shields -- see [this issue](https://github.com/ipitio/backage/issues/23).
