Hm, still doesn't work. I'm using qwest, does that make a difference?

No, it shouldn't. Can you post the actual error you're getting?

CORS is enabled (allow “*”) on the new API. Just let me know if you see anything weird / broken. I'll try to get patches out for you folks quickly.

Hm, still doesn't work for me. Oh yeah, I don't think qwest works with some things. Time to go find something else to use!

I might rewrite scribblemod.tk with PHP or Python/Django or C/C++ and take advantage of these…

Sure.
qwest.get('https://crossorigin.me/https://api.scratch.mit.edu/users/WooHooBoy/following?limit=5')
    .then(function(xhr, response) {
        // things
    });

Probably a problem with qwest…

Because I was lazy

I'll try standard.
Hmmm, seems to work fine. Stupid qwest.

Huh. It seems like the qwest library is appending some cache-control headers that we don't support. FWIW we use `xhr`:
https://www.npmjs.com/package/xhr

Also, you can drop the "https://crossorigin.me/“ part as we support requests from ”*".

I'll check that out, looks pretty good.
I'll probably just create my own for this purpose.
