SPECIAL NOTE: Due to this incident we have moved development over to codeberg. A lot of the references below may now be 404 or you may notice some users talking to themselves.

Any threads which survived the wipe have been migrated over to codeberg and can be reached via https://codeberg.org/nsxiv/nsxiv/pulls/ID.
