automagic app - gimme gimme more gimme more gimme gimme more

Delaying thinking about your Yuletide nominations because you can't think of a fandom to nominate? Well, someone wanted requests from every exchange ever scraped to magically be grouped together and so I am now letting fandom eat their hearts out: https://autoao3app.firebaseapp.com/#/everything

I kinda manic-blitzed through this one today, so there will probably be bugs. Further functionality will trickle in later. Let me know if you see something wrong/want something in particular!

the app will cost a smol amount of money every month from now on when I normally manage to duck hosting fees; alas, now we need a Realish Database. this is my first/last plug until Yuletide crashes upon us to tip your local coadie if you feel i bring you utility, joy, and/or save you some money from your local optometrist

If one wanted to contribute towards the magical app (which I have already used SO OFTEN and found SO USEFUL), how would one do so?

This looks so great!

Bug (?) report: when I tried to look at all the requests for Re-Animator (Movies), it just hangs up and never gives me results. All the other fandoms I clicked worked really quickly. Maybe it's the hyphen that's hanging it up?

https://autoao3app.firebaseapp.com/#/everything/search/coal

here you go, coal, character/relationship search to rule them all. except there are 0 characters in 40+ exchanges named anything like coal. How is this possible? So sad.

From Exchanges After Dark:

Morbane — Today at 8:46 PM
Hello all, karanguni is helping me with a project to try to make tag sorting more efficient in Yuletide. As part of that experiment, I would really appreciate people nominating things to this tag set:

https://archiveofourown.org/tag_sets/3304

Any fandoms at all, small or large, with up to 4 characters each. The more nominations the merrier. These nominations will probably not be approved or edited and may be cleared at some point. It'll help us if we get a large pool of nominations added in a relatively short space of time.

App: Seeking Testing Volunteers

hello coalies, coadie here. If the automagic app is useful to you and you were one of the coalies who in previous years said you were up to helping out with testing, I'm looking for said help now!

The stability of the new features and the new Everything Database has seen a pretty cool uptick in usage, but this means the Old Database (on which everything from the OG Tagset App was based and on which non-Everything pages continue to be based) is starting to get overloaded.

People have scraped over 150+ exchanges (including all of yuletide wtf props to you) and the OG DB is creeping over 1gb of unoptimised, dreadful size. We're hitting the free storage limits on it, and I'm disinclined to pay for both the New DB and the Old DB each month, every month from hereonout. To save myself and the community $$$$, I'm thinking of migrating *everything* to the New Database, which means a bit of a re-write of the automagic application.

I am but one coadie, and would like some testers to come along on the first major refactor of this coalmine-born application since 2018. Your job will mainly involving playing around as you normally would with a pre-migration version of the app and then playing around with a post-migration version and telling me if anything has caught fire/is behaving poorly. You know, when they were digging the Chunnel normally in dev shops, they had have teams of guys monitoring this! - Yeah? How many? - Teams!

Please let me know in namespace (or anonymously but with some way I get work with you) if you're interested! ♥ coal, coadie out
