internal improvements:
|
||||
- cobalt will now match the link to regex when using ?u= query for autopasting it into input area.
|
||||
- better rate limiting: limiting now is done per minute, not per 20 minutes. this ensures less waiting and less attack area for request spammers.

|
||||
- ALL user inputs are now properly sanitized on the server. that includes variables for POST api method, too.
|
||||
- "got" package has been (mostly) replaced by native fetch api. this should greatly reduce ram usage.
|
||||
- all unnecessary duplications of module imports have been gotten rid of. no more error passing strings from inside of service modules. you don't make mistakes only if you don't do anything, right?
|
||||
- other code optimizations. there's less clutter overall.
