Yey! I wasn't sure if anyone would notice that. Happy to see you did!

This is really huge! You can go to a very very very old post (e.g. https://variants.world/posts/127) and by clicking "Back to all posts" you would be redirected to a position on a list with that exact post you were coming from, even if you never have scrolled the list to that position before. Then you can scroll up and "newer" posts will be loaded automatically.

- Open source code on GitHub!
In fact, it has been open source all this time, and it's just that it wasn't made clear publicly until now. New contributions are welcome, you can also see a roadmap and other issues. Join our discord if you are willing to contribute!

- Filters for Under Review, Accepted, Declined, and Pending Reply lists!
One thing that wasn't mentioned: the state of filters and search query are now persisted (within a browser). They also do not affect the "Back to all posts" functionality and have infinite scrolling supported too.
The 'Back to All Posts' actually works properly and I am so happy.

I meant to double-click the post button when submitting #1323, but failed to do so. It was send immediately. 🗸
Could we have a normal date, like comments have, rather than how long ago the variant was posted? 📆

Yay! I don't have to scroll for 24275852245 min now! I also don't have to wait 643384223789 hrs for a variant to load!
You can keep your place on the list when scrolling and clicking out of a post!
I actually wanted this. Nice
Filters for Under Review, Accepted, Declined, and Pending Reply lists!
(Don't worry, the Variant Verdict Feed likely won't be going anywhere. We actually kind of like using that system and it makes things more intuitive)
Good for those who can't type "Pending Reply" into the search bar every time... And for me.
Good changes

Next thing to address regarding performance:
- Large image size
- Long server response
Feel free to suggest (best sending image examples) of how you think we could support/include new game rules in the board image (except for custom koth which is obvious).
