someone just copy the forums structure and make a patreon. alternatively, change "general bullshit" to "total bullshit", "YOSPOS" to "YOSPIS" so the taxman can't sue.

since the forums are probably differently structured it'll be a bit more than just replacing the data-parsers, but honestly for basic functionality it wouldn't take more than a weekend I guess. I once refactored Awful.apk to a json version for the interface :choco:

provided and it took me like 2 days.

And in the meantime
