-`dbin` will survive even if the upstream repo disappears. `dbin` has a repository index that is held in its own repo. And given that the upstream binaries are held & built in GHCR, all build logs and binaries will continue to be usable/downloadable even if `pkgforge` disappears or experiences downtime

- The binaries in `dbin` are specifically filtered for `portability` (meaning, they work on older kernel versions, they work on `Musl` and `Glibc` and even weird yet wonderful systems like [AliceLinux](https://github.com/xplshn/alicelinux), [OasisLinux](https://github.com/oasislinux/oasis) or FreeBSD (with linuxlator, so that you don't have to set up an Ubuntu chroot to install a Linux web browser and be able to watch DRM content, etc)

In the case of `--transparent`, it runs the program from $PATH and if it isn't available in the user's $PATH it will pull the binary from `dbin`'s repos and run it from cache.
`search` can only receive various search terms, if the name of a binary or a description of a binary contains the term, it is shown as a search result.

`search` can optionally receive a `--limit` argument, which changes the limit on how many search results can be displayed (default is 90) (you can also put this in your config)
