It's a bit misleading when you say Zepto has no AMD support, when it actually does.
And it's no alternative to jQuery or Mootools since your lib doesnt support a lot of stuffs these libs provide.
So where does this library compromise? Why isn't jQuery this small?
Another example are jQuery's the complex selector/stacked set features, like 'andSelf()' or 'next()'. Minified only has simple lists and a couple of callback-using helper methods like 'collect()' and 'filter()'. If you are doing something complex and know jQuery's API well enough, jQuery is more powerful.
Poor name , sounds like a uglify like lib , not a DOM manipulation lib. You should changed it. And it's no alternative to jQuery or Mootools since your lib doesnt support a lot of stuffs these libs provide.

Not providing the same features doesn't mean it isn't an alternative. It has different goals.
Releasing thing into the public domain is not as easy as writing
"Minified has been released into the Public Domain. You can use, copy, distribute and modify Minified without any copyright restrictions. You may even release it under your name and call it yours, if that's your thing."
As the CC0 page explains [1]:
> a waiver may not be effective in most jurisdictions
> Dedicating works to the public domain is difficult if not impossible for those wanting to contribute their works for public use before applicable copyright or database protection terms expire. Few if any jurisdictions have a process for doing so easily and reliably.
Please use a proper PD waiver tool such as CC0.
Earlier quoted context omitted.

The headline says fully featured
It's true that Minified doesn't support many features in the same breadth as the other libraries. Instead the focus is on making the essentials easy (often easier) and offering you powerful functions to do the rest. Basically that's how I keep both API size and file size down.
