Thinking about returning to cbox because of the Chattable situation. Or are there other alternatives people know about? I want to know what options I got
One very Stupid™ idea I saw floating around was using javascript functionality to edit and save txt files. The txt files would correspond to each comment's data & the javascript code could potentially be used to check how many txt files there are and limit any more from being made (and edit & save the html file with the comment box to close the comment box)
fair warning: im not that well-versed in javascript file manipulation, so idk if it's possible or even safe to do so. I just saw it a few weeks ago and thought it was worth mentioning
since js can load & download files, people thought it might also be possible to save files using js on the server sending the js file without having to use a backend. I don't really think it's possible but idk for sure
