So, Homestuck.com has been kaput for quite a while now, but we've been reassured that it's coming back soon™.
Obviously, the baseline for this should be the site working as well as it did before Adobe Flash died. But fans have been using the UHC for a while now, and that brought lots of new additions that they may find the official site sorely lacking!
So I wanna know what kind of new features or QOL changes it could get that you're interested in! James asked about this a while back too but nothing ever came of it, so I'm hoping they're rolling out some of the results with the revival update.
Now, the obvious idea is to just copy stuff the UHC already does. Quirk toggles, dark modes, better saving and loading, adjustments for text, and new reader mode.
But there's room for creativity! There are mods and other changes to that collection that could be added like Hussie's commentary, toggles for the slurs, descriptive text, and...other stuff!
Personally, I'd love for the team to commission translations of Homestuck's story, or else implement some of the existing fanmade translations. The fandom would grow massively from having an international audience.
What ideas do y'all have?

Little thing, I’m curious if the Skaianetsystems website countdown was ever headed anywhere. If so, I’d like to see it come back as part of the website revamp.
Pretty sure the Skaianet timer was set for like a decade. They can barely get some four hour video games out in a similar amount of time. I really doubt Huss has anything in store for 2029 that he's been working on this whole time.
Addition idea: a music player with page-compliant song selections, like the UHC mod. I want this because I just reinstalled the mod and discovered it doesn't fucking work anymore.
