Whenplane now has a discord!

Whenplane now has a discord server. Theres not much there, but feel free to join it to ask questions or whatever. Or just tell me you like the site or something.

There is also a channel there that a message is sent whenever a livestream change is detected on Floatplane, which leads perfectly into the...

New Floatplane Detecter

Before this week, we used TheWanDB's reverse engineering to get data from Floatplane. However, the developer might not be able to maintain it anymore, so this week I made my own (he still was a massive help though, this would have taken me way longer without him)

This also opens up some new (I think exciting) possibilities for future features, especially for the extension.

I've made a page specifically for showing the data from Floatplane here. Its mostly meant to make things easier for myself if something goes wrong with it, but you can look at it too.

Elijah Notifications

If you didn't already know, Elijah streams on Twitch nearly every day. I've seen people complain in his chat about not receiving Twitch notifications, or receiving them way late, so I've added an option to get a notification when he goes live to the notifications page. Its disabled by default, so make sure you enable notifications specifically for Elijah if you want them.
