    The issue this is referring to is because the user cannot paste into a text field. And the user was not rude about it either.

    So instead of fixing the actual problem, the developer went nuclear and removed the validation. A dick move in my opinion given the developer’s attitude.

    ~It’s more sad than funny. 🤷‍♂️~

      IMO as a developer this is a sane change. There’s no telling when the format of the first-party api key will change. They may switch from reference tokens to JWT tokens tomorrow. The validation should be using the token and seeing if it works.

        If they had made the change for that reason, sure. But the actual stated cause was some pretty thing.

      I don’t know what that repo does. But, chances are the dude was just fucking tired of dealing with curseforge. Total garbage scum software.
