hmm i wonder what the best way of adding a cookie notice to the yinglet clicker is
cause your contribution count is saved to your machine and that is illegal afaict unless i tell you about it

@mynotaurus You're storing it in localStorage, so it's perfectly fine :3

@arch OBJECTION! (hm we should get an ace attorney objection emote lol) localstorage counts as cookies under the cookie law

@arch both can be used for fingerprinting, so presumably its to stop the loophole of using localstorage as cookies?

@mynotaurus set it off by default, add a preference window that enables the feature, in the description for the feature make sure it says "uses cookies", and that's probably good enough legally. or you can make like a tiny window that says "this feature uses cookies, click OK to accept" on the first click of the clicker. idk I was thinking about this for my dark-mode switcher at one point bc it used one cookie, but I removed that from my site a while ago on accident and haven't bothered putting it back lmao

@dragonminded us sites still have to do it
i guess maybe you might not see it cause its only a legal requirement to do it for eu users though
