i've been working on my blogging software (the one that powers handheld underground & 12bit blog) adding support for replies to comments among other things. wanted to improve it a bit if i'm going to start a personal blog
the part that still needs work tbh is the admin backend, where i actually write & manage the posts, it hasn't changed much since i started hhug & i never much liked actually using it. need to figure out the most optimal interface to trick my brain into wanting to write things
i've now made it display thumbnails & it shows the filenames & markup for the image when you click on it. made it like 100x more useful. progress is being made
bit of now-redundant JS that i'm slightly sad to get rid of because of the comment
idk if the reference is even that well known but it's this https://legendsoflocalization.com/articles/hana-no-star-kaido/
the bulk of this was done in 2012 when i launched hhug with a few improvements over the years. the bit that handles image uploads somehow dates back to the website i had before that & it looks like this. i just embedded it in an iframe in the current interface & was like fuck it that'll do for now
