 @:nigga:  @Nekobit How about a part of incoming request handler? He shared it a while ago, I also tried to find a screenshot of his unorthodox implementation of /rvl/stats template, but failed. Regardless, screamshitter.club has existed for ages and had a basic timeline view for months. Here, I even attached a frontend to it so you don't have to: screamshitter.ryona.agency.

ok, now i get something's there.
>w.go
so there's a basic HTTP request handler in-progress. cool.
i dont know what the second picture is doing really, is it a rate limiter? i dont know why it's named "Do", probably has something to do with the thing called "client" but he doesn't provide any reference to what that is so i'm lost.
overall im more convinced than i originally was (i thought absolutely nothing was there), but this still is very disappointing.

nekobit implemented much more than what's shown here in just 3 months(9/26/22~1/11/23 according to his Fossil repo) so i highly suspect he actually is working on something at the moment. he might be busy moderating FSE, but i still don't expect someone to slack off this much. 
 @:nigga:  @Nekobit >is it a rate limiter?
Yeah, he was talking about how Pleroma handles incoming requests and brought his implementation as a comparison. I'll try digging up more later.
>9/26/22~1/11/23
And zero commits since then, I presume. To quote the man in question:
<At some point, a programmer either starts giving a shit about stability, or he becomes a game dev.
10 months later: a launcher for some bing bing wahoo instead of Treebird.
>i highly suspect he actually is working on something at the moment
Lucre.
