is there a reason wasm-bindgen passes EVERY SINGLE EXPORT as an argument to the linker? could we.. write this to a file instead, and pass it the path to the file? no?

Spicy take of the day: YAML is not *that* bad.
(If you're the one writing it)

Since I have my own PeerTube instance now, I made a channel exclusively for all the ads that I've made over the past four years.
