Description
Problem
GoSQLX has no social proof in the README. Enterprise evaluators and new visitors see a technically excellent project but no evidence of real-world usage. For infrastructure libraries, a 'Who's Using This' section is the primary trust signal after star count.
Why This Matters
- The clone/view ratio (595 unique cloners in 14 days) proves people are trying the library
- Zero of these are visible in the README
- Competitors like vitess and pg_query_go have extensive 'used by' sections
- Even 3 entries (including personal projects) change first impressions significantly
