Add support for unofficial mirror #38

Open HigherOrderLogic opened 2 years ago

meooow25 commented 2 years ago

I feel reluctant to add support for unofficial mirrors because they are, well, completely unofficial and I don't want to be endorsing them. Do you know who hosts this mirror and why?

I don't know who they are and why they host these mirror sites, but I usually use these mirrors due to the slow network at my place contest time. And because Carrot does not support those sites, I have to change tab and wait for like 30 seconds just to see my ranking. So I'd be more than happy to see Carrot supports those sites. Thanks!

That is a legitimate reason, but the site could be malicious so I'm not sure I would trust it. That being said, I can look into implementing something like setting the desired domain by the user (only one, not multiple) given that they trust the site and use it at their own risk. I hope that works for you.
