I can't find an official statement about it anywhere, all the stuff I can find is what others have said and the fact that I'm pretty sure it's on the list of things the supporter tier gives now. if you could send me an official source on it I'd be grateful!
still, this feels really scummy, and I really hope it gets pushed back somehow.
sorry, i can't find an official source on it either :/ you could try reaching out to the creator of neocities, kyle drake, for a statement as it seems he's pretty responsive? other than that though, i do host some audio files on catbox.moe and i've never run into any issues with it, so filegarden definitely has a chance of working out. i'm also able to use imood, i have no idea why that works but status.cafe doesn't
the whole stricter restrictions on new accounts thing does feel really unfair, i understand the need for it and i support it to a degree but i think it could've been implemented so much better, especially in a way that doesn't alienate part of the userbase. my hope is that they introduce some kind of verification system or even a one time payment so new users can permanently get the same permissions as older users :T
was literally just thinking this ;w; im like really wondering if supporter is worth it
@lhfm afaik accounts made after jan 1, 2024 aren't able to retrieve data from foreign websites in the way older accounts can, so like my neocities site can't interact with code on status cafe to display a status, or interact with google forms to allow me to host a comment box. it's not like cors support will be going away for everyone and new accounts can buy supporter to get it, but it just feels rly unfair imo :(
hdjfhs THANK YOU!! i love your site so much too, i feel like we have similar visions or inspirations? (although ur site is definitely an inspiration to me now as well ;;)
