Most of this post was written a while ago but I wasn't very happy with it, then came school and on but now there is more stuff that needs posting so here it goes

> Considering you said you didn't like python. What changed your mind?
Yes, I still hate it (probably even more now) but there are a few reasons why I couldn't justify making it in kotlin, mainly:
> Everything else is in python, we will have to glue it together eventually for automation, and this should make it easier (e.g. using API instead of output parsing)
> You don't have to recompile it after every change (it can be automated but you would still need compiler, jvm ...)
> I will probably have to use python in school so I might as well get used to it
The biggest con is probably the complicated-structure JSON parsing which appears to not have any really elegant solution like gson, but that's probably just because I haven't found anything good yet.

kek, alright. I was just giving higher priority to the paging and avatar downloading

I can agree on that however I feel like it could still be a bit better even if we would go for very minimalistic design. But after all there is option
to link custom CSS so we don't really have to be perfect.

Like I mentioned, I want to implement everything eventually, but it's not like anyone would want to stop you.

> Don't slave away on this, okay? Don't feel pressured on this.
I do mostly nothing useful for the most of the time (unless it's exam period). The "pressure" I wouldn't really call it that way is probably the only thing that got it this "far"

> 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.
I wanted to use local "VPS club" I like because they are non-profit with pretty free rules. The price is not particularly good but I would be happy to
see any better services you may know. I would self host it at home but after my ISP got bought up, my IP is blinking like christmas tree and I don't
really want to use DynamicDNS. But it's not like it would be anytime soon anyways.

> ...gosh, it is forlorn looking at the original video on YouTube, nonpony avatar (not a moral folly on the part of the user, but still sad), lacking comments from the great purge and now the freaking dislike button numbers now carefully hidden for our protection.
Yeah I wonder how far we'll get until YouTube dies (not that i think it will be anytime soon) but i think they'll eventually do something like the tumblr porn purge and people will go away

> How cucked are the github offshoots? That is the question that should be asked.
I'm not sure I only ever used Github and GitLab, but I mostly wanted to self host my own public git anyways, so this is mostly another reason to do it
