> Okay, this took about 2 months longer than expected, 

This is me often I many things, no worries. 

> but I have rewritten the comment converter in python. So far it's slightly better than the Kotlin version.

Considering you said you didn't like python. What changed your mind? 

> Overall there is really nothing extra in this version

To quote the documentation: 
> Replies can be shown and hidden using ugly button if JS is enabled

> Replies are sorted and chained correctly unlike in prev version


As for currently broken and future things:
> It still looks ugly however it's better than before I think

Yes, agreed.  Though tbh I find old fashion html not too bad even if we are aiming for better. 
> Comments from youtube API are not supported as they have too complex structure and I have no idea how to make parsing them not retarded right now

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm... I believe the "new fixed downloader" script that I use does use the API but I will have to check. Not that it matters too much as I still have a fair bit from before. 
> Paging & avatar downloading (highest priority)

Agreed on both.

> In case anyone would like to modify it/play with some of the todos mentioned in the zip, 

I am doubtful in my ability to help well in the programing side but considering I did manage to add basic error handling to  >>/7715/ I will see if I can do something. 

> I am not sure how much time I'll have to work on this in the near future, but hopefully it won't take another 2 months for next update.

Don't slave away on this, okay? The programing end has been a one anon effort, your effort. Don't feel pressured on this.

> I'll probably self host something when I'll get enough money to buy VPS for at least

...and be wise with your money. I am perfectly fine whether you want to self host a git or use another service. I am also fine for it to be confined to this thread. Just that, if you throw any money on this, I don't want you to put yourself on any finical stress, even if you are good with money and saved up. If you are going to press ahead, I might know of a alright service for a smaller website but it would depend on the minimal system requirements of gitlab or whatever software you are using.
