project wonderful; internet pol
in case you were wondering why this is a big deal:
1. it is no longer POSSIBLE to ethically (non-invasively) run ads on your website
2. similarly, it is no longer POSSIBLE *to advertise your site* in an ethical manner
3. if your revenue depends on advertising, you now HAVE to place third-party trackers and such on your content
4. which basically just furthers centralization of the web, and puts indie authors and websites at a HUGE disadvantage 😭
I wish I could just accept compliments like a normal person https://botsin.space/media/ndGU5MVPxBttpN-WuLM
Today... I want to give people hugs.
*hugs @Xkeeper, @KS@is.a.qute.dog, @typhlosion, @kobold, @revenant, @remmah, and @Rezulux* 💖💖💖
Thank you so much for supporting me, helping when I couldn't help myself, and being there when I needed a shoulder I could cry on...
There are other people who deserve hugs, too, but I have probably already forgotten everybody who has helped over the past few months. I'm sorry if I forgot you...

Yep, there's our culprit, just like I thought. That "func_SearchDialogDefinitionForA" call ends up going off into outer space instead of where it should be looking.
Hopefully copying and modifying this function won't be too hard...?
Poly trans cuddlefloof programmer and gamedev(?). I love poking around in and reverse engineering old games. I'm also super shy and have horrible anxiety, so ... please be nice...
I don't mind if you follow request, but if I don't know or recognize you, please send me a message so I know who you are. #nobot
