This package provides fake sink elements that consume & drop incoming data.
They are particularly useful for testing or when making a filter-oriented pipeline.

It comes in 2 variants: `Membrane.Fake.Sink.Buffers` and
`Membrane.Fake.Sink.Bytes` which differ in units they use when making demands.

It is part of [Membrane Multimedia Framework](https://membraneframework.org).

## Installation
