Controversies
gollark: So this gained a loop polling MPD - remember, it has a client-server model, so other stuff can communicate with it. Use of MPD turned out to be a good design decision!
gollark: But that isn't very relevant here.
gollark: This also accreted a small admin interface and youtube-dl frontend, mostly as a result of an aborted attempt to implement SSO.
gollark: Fortunately, I already *had* a service sitting around which I could extend to do things, in the form of the Random Stuff API, which had a long history of driving PotatOS services.
gollark: For other technical reasons, splitting everything into tons of separate services would have been annoying for me.
