ok let me clarify if this happens it's gonna replace outpost-fe.w.on-t.work i'm still no longer doing a backend

throwing the code at git.gay/kopper/outpost-fe-2 so i can later steal the tricks for other things i will also subsequently abandon

pl-api is the largest dependency on the bundle so far and i dont want to rewrite it its so much busywork i wish it wasnt a single massive un-tree-shakable class

do i reaaally need the code to call the pleroma admin api?

ok i think im gonna roll back the data loading system i tried to make and instead Just Not Care About Having One Source Of Truth For What A Post Says because it turns out svelte is only really made for sveltekit and doesn't let you do anything cool by yourself like having a derived that returns a reference counted value that doesn't want to make you hate yourself when using or literally anything involving async that isn't Just A Fetch
you would think that you can call a function in a component and have that function do everything the component itself can do. you would think that wouldnt you. yeah you would.

the current state of things will live here once git.gay accepts my push so if anyone wants to take on the challenge they can: git.gay/kopper/outpost-fe-2/src/branch/experiment/single-source-of-truth

slowly coming up to the conclusion that it's impossible to have a coherent mental model of svelte. reactivity broke? Randomly Throw Closures Until It Works. context doesnt work here? Move The Set Above The Async? you need the async value in the context? You Would Think You Can't Because Of The Previous -- But You Can If You Pass It To Another Component That Wraps All Your Other Components. got an error message? This Is All You're Getting. Good Luck

there's like 10 different contexts your code can be in at any given time and they all hate each other and all of them can be in the same exact file and even scope

want to use the "legacy" stores because they let you replace $effect for your reference counting? you gotta declare them in the top level script. you have a recursive reply tree of them? FUCK YOU SUCK MY DICK GOT 10 ASLDKJILLION DOLLAR INVESTMENT FROM VERCEL

you know what no codebase cancelled i can't take this shit anymore

now that i've cooled down in the two hours since i could absolutely have phrased a lot of this better

alright cancellation cancelled i may have found a really easy fix now that i could think straight and a formal apology to rich harris who i know namesearches svelte and will inevitably find this thread as well once we're done talking in the other one's replies

its hard to tell if my code is working well or not because the unauthenticated bluesky appview seems to be throttled to hell and back i gotta implement logging in like asap

i gotta keep reminding myself this whole app requires js to function at all so i can indeed use it to compute styles that css may be too unwieldy or require too many useless wrappers for

i think this may be my least spaghetti approach to reply trees yet, also tried sneaking in a thread collapser but not sure how i feel about it yet
Replying to @kopper@not-brain.d.on-t.work
the key? realize what i'm doing is special casing the last element EXPLICITLY, instead of trying to hack it together with various combinations of css selectors and conditionals on the current index in the loop
and a tiny bit of javascript to size the indicators correctly instead of trying to wrangle the shape of the dom so they line up naturally

fun fact: switching between light and dark mode does not change the green* backdrop in the slightest and only alters the panels, switching them between "white with a subtle green hint" to "really dark green"
this happens because green transcends the light mode/dark mode binary
