  • Of course, but OOP is typically about putting methods on classes, inheritance of behaviour etc.

    JS Objects aren’t typically used that way, they tend to be used as pure data containers. At least, that’s how we mostly use them.

    Occasionally, we’ll use objects to simplify passing multiple arguments including arrow functions, but I’d say that doesn’t really count unless the arrow function mutates the object it’s a part of.

    I’d been using Geometric Weather for many years, and I noticed a few weeks ago that it was misbehaving, not fetching data sometimes. I didn’t realise it had not had an update for almost 3 years!

    I had switched to Google’s weather app, but maybe I’ll switch to this instead. Thanks for the heads-up.



  • As someone who has used this app for at least 6 years, I am very sad to see this happen.

    I’m surprised they weren’t able to get away with it after the change in extensions a couple versions ago. By not shipping extensions that have copyrighted content that should have been enough, similar to how emulators, services like Plex and torrenting applications survive.

    It’s effectively just a comic / manga reader that can be used for piracy when the right extensions are added.

    Apparently that wasn’t enough, and I can’t blame open source devs for not wanting to start a legal battle with a profit-earning company.

    For now, the app does allow you to add external repository’s (list of extensions for various sources) that are still being updated, and I believe there are at least a few forks of the project that will survive for now.

    All I can say is great work to the dev team for sticking with us until now and I wish you luck in your future ventures.
