Developer Update August 3rd, 2019 (Patreon)

Hewwo  (ﾉ´ヮ´)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧ uWu time foh ur fwednly devewopper updwate oWo

Just kidding.

First off, I'd like to thank everyone because we're closing in on half a million page views per month. That's insane!

Refactoring

Wouldn't be an update without refactoring. There have been several performance enhancements & code quality updates sprinkled here & there. 

Mobile Banner Space

Mobile devices will now display the users banner (375px & up - not on iphone 5).

Followers

Follower support is coming soon and will allow you to easily keep tabs on your friends (that's the intent, anyway). This is more prep work for the mobile app, so i don't imagine this will get much traction in the site as it stands. But I could be wrong.

Sort By Name

You'll be able to sort the profile by waifu name. I'm working on a way to handle the sorting for likes \ trashes. Series doesn't make much sense to sort by because someone could be in series whose names have absolutely nothing to do with one another. 

Of course, we all just want custom lists at this point? right? Don't worry, it'll come soon!

Currently Airing Carousel

I actually shipped this a few weeks ago but did not write about it. Isn't it pretty?

Patreon Account Linking

It's really difficult to handle situations where I get a new patron and send them a message saying thanks and they cancel their pledge the same day. For this, I'm going to be adding an oAuth flow where I can automatically set up accounts & developer access for donors and take it away when they cancel.  This has happened more times than I can count and it just doesn't feel good - so streamlining the process will be better for everyone.

Ad Space

I'm hopefully going to have some ads placed soon (cross our fingers!). You guys will never see it as donors, but for the common folk it'll be nice. They will be anime related for sure so no issue there.

Shipping When?

This month! <3
