[Sub Meta question] If there was one thing you could change about this subreddit, what would it be?
Thanks! It came from the Image set AO3 uses. Not sure where that is actually used/if it ever actually is used though
-
what feature do you think Ao3 should add?
It wasn't really "swept under the rug", it's just that none of the volunteers decided to work on it. AO3 is entirely run by volunteers, so it's not really anyone's fault that this is taking 14 years to resolve. If you think it's that serious, you can write the code yourself and submit it, but don't take it for granted that this is someone else's responsibility.

Can anyone else not leave kudos?
Since 5th December 2010. You should probably try to get your email back.

AO3 has an update on muting!

I keep seeing people suggesting ao3 implement main character/pairing tags. I had emailed them a little while ago to ask about such a possibility and this was the response I received. It doesn’t seem like this will become a thing in the near future :(
Everybody who wants to complain about the horrible nightmare world of AO3 is hereby invited to get off their asses and make their own archive with blackjack and hookers. You can find the code here. You are welcome to use it.

If you could add features to AO3, what would they be?
It's Ruby on Rails. Repository

Does ao3 count a person revisiting a work as another hit?
For reference, here's the post that says that a unique IP address can only add one hit per 24 hours. Here's the pull request on github. I'm not sure why the FAQ hasn't been updated to reflect that, but as far as I can tell, the 24 hour system is still in place.
-
Should Ao3 have a personalized feed?
On a related note, Ao3's code is open-source and they're on GitHub, so like, if you're a programming nerd and really want a feature added maybe send a pull request or something.

Magika: AI powered fast and efficient file type identification
If you're curious, here's how I solved it for ruby back in the day. Still used magic bytes, but added an overlay on top of the freedesktop.org DB: https://github.com/mimemagicrb/mimemagic/pull/20

Releases 0.9.299 - 0.9.305: Change Log
[AO3-6152] - Due to a licensing incident with a Rails dependency known as mimemagic, we had to update Rails to 5.2.5 and mimemagic to 0.3.6.

Can You Not use Applications Built with Older Versions of Ruby?
I don't think mimemagic works on Windows after the drama. I opened a PR for that a month ago but no one seems to care: https://github.com/mimemagicrb/mimemagic/pull/141

Perfect Motherf****** Website
"License, motherfucker"
I know the vulgarity of the statements is tongue in cheek, but this one has been reinforced lately by the "MIME Magic" debacle[1], mama mia.

Rails 5.2.5, 6.0.3.6 and 6.1.3.1 have been released [removed dependency on mimemagic]
On the other hand mimemagic provides by_magic https://github.com/mimemagicrb/mimemagic#usage which does detection by heuristic. It's a radically different method for a radically different use case.
