But Taskfile didn't improve anything about Make? Make has a huge user base, it's battle-tested in many environments, it has a ton of infrastructure around it...

Taskfile brings nothing to the table. It cannot compete with existing automation tools. It doesn't even promise to be better than existing automation tools...

I mean, give me at least some reason to believe it could be better than what I already have... to me it looks like the people who wrote it simply never saw what's already there. Kind of like a university project where students write a simplistic compiler for a subset of C language... It's nice that they tried their hand, but they have a long way before they actually produce something useful.
