I doubt anyone cares about my website to notice but I redesigned the home page. I think it looks way nicer and I’m actually quite proud of it. Even though it’s kinda inspired by dimden’s hotel.
(hint: try clicking on me or refreshing a bunch of times!)
Also a quite late addition but I’ve added some Discord datamining toys. One is a build explorer which you can find here.
It’s almost completely client-side (aside from having to pull build data from my server, and to proxy some assets) and it’s a bit buggy since Monaco has horrible integration with anything. Some other things I want to add or re-add:
- Discord build list (like nelly.tools)
- More easter eggs(?)
- Chat or a guestbox
- Comments under blog posts
- My Discord status maybe?
- “Currently listening to”/last.fm panel
- Custom uptime indicator panel (although it would be kinda backwards..)
The last one is because I’m tired of Uptime Kuma, It’s.. okay for basic functionality but honestly gets so limiting so quickly. It claims to have a public API, and even has API keys, but the public API is very janky and I’m pretty sure it’s not even recommended to use it. It’s also socket.io based which is.. ugh.
It’s also sometimes really spammy especially when my hosting provider starts having networking issues for the 30th time. (so far this has happened almost 30 times)
Chat, guestbox and comments I’m just kinda scared of adding:
- I’d have to regularly check it to make sure no one has tried to be funny by spamming racial slurs or just breaking it.
- I’d also have to make sure that no one tries to spread false stuff about me through it. Or some bot finding it and spamming it with trash.
Both would be just kind of a pain. Though, maybe I’m just overthinking it.
Also, if I do end up implementing the build list then I might put it on the home page.
Especially since size isn’t really a problem anymore because it’s a SectionRoot > Section > SubSection system.
(aka, there’s a root container called SectionRoot, it has two sections (for left and right) and each section has a SubSection.)
