gollark: What?

gollark: Pretty awful, this being at home in the UK, but it works.

gollark: As I said, spare capacity on my webserver, it's *basically* free.

gollark: https://github.com/dizzyd/mcdex ← it's a nice command-line tool to manage modpacks

gollark: I think the best approach is probably to use curse's registry, but with something like mcdex and MultiMC instead of the horrible Twitch launcher.
