Sounds (heh) good in theory, but so far it hasn't been able to pick any radio in my country (Ar) or nearby. Inspector says any attempt to load a radio ends in a HTTP 403 error.

Starting up wikis is so easy nowadays that there's no excuse. I maintain a few Dokuwiki-based ones, it's my preferred engine for simple wiki stuff, but Mediawiki (the same one that powers Wikipedia) is not bad either and not really too difficult, just a bit more demanding storage-wise. Heck, you can currently fire-and-forget DW-based wikis on SDF's "one payment" access tier, even! Probably on Neocities too, haven't checked.

Just about that. I know there's been important updates lately but I'm wondering if they are being pre-checked and how. I notice that there's various features around the site that throw HTTP 500 error pages randomly, or on certain generic inputs. To name a few examples:...
