Nazis, Communists and Antifa don't belong on FA
I think the main problem why FA's code has been stagnant and decaying (compared to Sofurry, Inkbunny and Furocity) is due to a lack of trust of outside help. Sometimes you have to do this after careful consideration with said person, you really should not remain xenophobic and allow bit and software rot on the current codebase (This is doing towards Dragoneer and Yak especially) but at least have some work done on it before actually moving on and getting an ACTUAL NEW CODEBASE up.
You had your chance(s?) with Eevee (and even Verix?) but you simply did not go forward because noone knew Python along with a bunch of other factors, yet you now sit on an obsolete codebase yet this so-called new UI you paid someone to make is not going to cover up the faults behind the shiny new look. It might look new but in actuality it hasn't changed much at all, the same as giving a rusty looking and deteriorating Ford Model T a shiny fiberglass exterior. It looks nice but the underlying problems are not changing.
You know if the current FA code was open source, outside help CAN be a big help on fixing all these (around 35) problems Eevee has posted on his journal, atop any minor flaws and glitches he does not know of. This could save you (Dragoneer) and Yak quite a bit of time if the community can take a look at the underlying code and even help with normal programmers, white and gray hats that exist in the fandom. Think about it, seriously (But I know you're not gonna care that much, that's my guess tho I harped you on Twitter over such issues).
Get with the times and stop pussyfooting around.
