gollark: Idea: user-customizable autobias on ABR.
gollark: There is also semantic search using unfathomable machine learning™ techniques.
gollark: For example, page names are finally not the only thing they can be addressed by. Pages have IDs and can have multiple names. They are matched case insensitively.
gollark: 7.1 is very elegant, I think, and finally fixes a lot of issues. It also introduces cool new ones.
gollark: Minoteaur 1 is the original JS implementation with server rendering and selfreplicators. 2 is a Rust thing which was meant to be client rendered and did not really happen. 3 and 4 are variants of a more TiddlyWiki-inspired design or something. 5 is a server rendered Rust one which doesn't work well. 6 is a server rendered Nim one which works badly in different ways. 7 is Python and 7.1 is Python with a different architecture.
