What's with your recommendation of github by using it and linking to it then?

What are the downsides of using GitHub?

If there's an alternative platform we could use, you can demonstrate it by cloning our repo there. Also make sure CI actions run correctly on the new platform.

🎅🎅 New Years present! 🎅🎅

The last few days I worked hard preparing your New Years present. And now it's finally here.

Your present: https://subtitles.ajatt.top/

This new site is AJATT's catalog of Japanese subtitles for anime, dramas, TV shows, and movies. Previously we only had a GitHub repository at https://github.com/Ajatt-Tools/kitsunekko-mirror/, but that required downloading the entire repo (several GiB), which is inconvenient. This site can be browsed online.

On each entry page, I left a wget command you can copy and use to download the folder.

Unlike some other subtitle catalogs, ours works without JavaScript. You can disable JavaScript and still use it. The site does include some JavaScript, but the code is free and trivial. We do not promote proprietary software. Our immersion learning toolset is completely free/libre.

I find it despicable that some language‑learning resources advertise nonfree software. It's like selling tobacco to kids at a school. AJATT does not support that. With our new subtitle catalog, you can find subtitle files without running nonfree software or relying on nonfree JavaScript.
