Glitter

Suppose someone wanted to make a module which created a stylistic defect enhancement that never went away, even if the module was uninstalled.

Give me your ideas for how one might accomplish this.

Some context... I'm considering a successor to the best module of all time: Confetti:

Glitter

🧵

My best idea so far is attempting to inject <style> tags into a chat message

good concept though

well that's concerning. should probably escalate that instead of posting here

Yeah, this seems like a reasonable solution. A chat message has a delete button which is helpful.

Yeah, that sounds like a good idea

@zeel gave +3 LeaguePoints™ to @Calego (#1 • 1513) for causing a minor panic.

could work if you put the chat message far into the future so you're sure it's always at the end of the chat log so it's always rendered on load, and the css could display:none that message even

Oh that's evil.
I kind of like that it is possible to recover from the mistake that is glitter, but only finding the right chat message

I have a standing grudge against all things glittery. Sometimes you just live long enough to become the thing you hate.

All I will say @Calego is that I am about to steal confetti from you if you don't accept/reject my MR and publish the never-before-seen, komrad-fueled Konfetti for all to use and love! (though, joke aside, I'm inches away from updating that MR for v10 compatibility :P)
