PixivFE

A privacy-respecting alternative front-end for Pixiv that doesn't suck

What is this?

I have been researching about Pixiv's API for a long time (with a lot of problems). One thing I noticed is that somebody actually made a decent alternative front-end for Pixiv yet (actually, there are some, but mostly paid + feature less and/or made by Chinese and/or depends on JS).

I decided to take the lead by creating an actual front-end that is truly suckless that could access most of the features provided by Pixiv. Intended to be written in Go with Gin.

Note that this project is still under its preparation stage.
