Add Modrinth Support

fooeyround commented 2 years ago

Support? Please give more detail on what your referring too, posting it on modrinth? This might be done later when a monetization system is in place on modrinth. And again please go in more detail of what you are referring to thanks.

Okay, I would recommend doing it now though as some people really don't like curseforge

Then the people don't need to use the mods if they dont want to. You can get them from masas website anyway.

I think it's more that nobody likes CurseForge (much). I don't like it either if I have to use it without the Premium subscription, and it gets stuffed full of obtrusive ads everywhere. (Thankfully authors get premium for free). But as of right now, if I have two hosting choices and first of them gives me a little bit back for the thousands of hours of work I pour into the mods over the years, and the second one doesn't, then for some odd reason I will prefer the first of those two (especially since I'm not employed atm).

Now granted TellMe is one of the mods where it probably matters the least as the overall number of downloads it gets (and thus the amount of reward points it gives) is way lower than some of the other mods. So I might upload it to Modrinth at some point soon. But on the other hand TellMe rarely gets any feature updates at this point, so it's basically that you will have to go to CurseForge to download it once per new MC version. So even if CurseForge kinda sucks, is that too much to ask, when you get the mod for free anyway? :thinking: :shrug:

This and all mods might get added after they add a good rewards system or something, but it is up to masa. In the end they are masa's mods not anyone else's.
