gollark: For what?
gollark: <@278889690596376576> Why does the switchcraft pack .11 zip extract to a folder called `switchcraft-3.10`? It broke my updater script.
gollark: You should just add storage backend support and use the Dragon API.
gollark: Oh, and Chromium, so RAM-eatier.
gollark: I just use the browser version, because the desktop one is probably Electron and therefore... a browser, but with extra APIs allowed.
