UI overhaul: https://obtainium.page/

Upsides:

• No longer a static site, meaning a server component can do more complex data sorting, filtering, etc.
• Accordingly, UI now features nicer paginated interface.
• UI in general better looking (JavaScript is only used for some eye candy, not required).
• Resolves Add size of cards following size of screen #85, [Enhancement] Add another behavior mode for category filtering (or replace the new mode with the old one). #115, The author's name of the app only appears in the link for Obtainium but is not visualized on the website. This should be adjusted. #290
• All links are compatible with existing UI.
• Site is no longer restricted to "complex" configurations -- simple configs are now accepted.

Downsides:

• The presence of a server side component means the site can no longer be hosted on Cloudflare Pages.
• This means potentially more frequent downtime (my home server is currently used but I will likely switch to a VPS later).

Other notes:

• An LLM (DeepSeek) was used to assist with this, mainly the frontend (rest assured this was not "vibe coding").
• I am considering running ads on the site. Not sure about this (on one hand I maintain the app, on the other hand the content of this site is crowdsourced). Will not go ahead with that if there is significant pushback.
• After this is merged and deployed, I plan to go through and resolve or clean up open issues (at least some of them are resolved/outdated).

Have you considered Cloudflare Workers? It could be a good fit in this case.
