alright sorry for the messy launch, but ocular 2.0 codename binocular is properly released now.

it's server side rendered which means it should theoretically be instant to use once the page is loaded, it can show post counts and all that which is neat, and it also shows local timezones or my timezone if it can't.

it's also all rewritten in a way which hopefully should make updates in the future a lot better.

i plan on separating specific posts, topics and users from search, then their URLs can be something like /post/1234 or /user/jeffalo
anything else?
cleaner codebase

scratch forums don't like some unicode characters (more or less just emoji) so as soon as they see emoji the rest of the post goes away. that also includes closing tags for html elements, so if you include a bunch of formatting and then just throw an emoji in the middle everything just breaks because the tags aren't closed, so all of the next elements become children to your post.

funny glitch but don't put it in your signature unless you want to be banned
