We tried implementing Orion support into our legal stream detection and we hit a snag. The dojavascript Applescript command does not bring any output. It appears to be a bug as it is working, but it won't appear in the next release.

The current Beta release will be the stable release coming out tomorrow. My next goal is to add Mastodon sharing support when I have free time. Also, I need to check if WaniKani adding Kana Vocabulary broke the WaniKani support in KaniManabu. The app needs some love, especially an iOS version as well. Haven't been able to work on it since I'm busy with my blog and other things.

If anyone is unaware, MyAnimeList has suffered a hacking attempt. As a result, MyAnimeList functionality will not work. However, Kitsu and AniList will continue to work as normal.

Do not submit any issues relating to MyAnimeList being down. We will announce something once it comes back online.

While we have been quiet in the development front since I am busy. a new Hachidori update will come soon to add support for Orion as the browser now supports Javascript from Apple Events (AppleScript), which Hachidori uses to detect Crunchyroll and other streaming sites that require Javascript.

A new stable release update should roll out this month.

Still figuring what updates to make to Shukofukurou, as I can't really think of anything at the moments and the apps are still stable and usable under the latest versions of iOS/iPadOS and MacOS, besides cross-service list syncing.

Hopefully we will get Mastodon support working this weekend. The hurdle is getting OAuth working, but after that everything else should be easy.

We have confirmed the title correction fix and it was working properly from our test file.

A new Testflight build for Shukofukurou for iOS is now out to replace the expiring build. There is no changes at the moment. Once we get Mastodon support working in Hachidori, we will add it to the test builds of Shukofukurou for iOS.

A New Beta version of Hachidori will be out to fix directory black and white lists to support subdirectories. We still need to fix the title correction issues that came up in the near future.

Hachidori 3.3.15 Beta 3 is being released soon to fix file name recognition. Apparently, numbers that are part of the title are being detected as season numbers, thus making titles incorrectly detected or fail all together.

Hachidori 3.3.15-beta 2 is now out. I left the unfinished social accounts preferences with erroneous options for Mastodon. That is now fixed, but we are adding Mastodon support, meaning tooting what you just watch on Mastodon.

Support for Twitter is removed. I am not going to support nor the platform that promote hate speech and censorship of everyone except on the Alt-right and other right-wing extremists.
