This website is now faster.
I optimized various parts of the website to ensure speed.

Introduction
've enhanced this website, on the optimizations, these include: Caching, Self-hosting APIs, and more
Views API
Way faster now, using a self hosted Redis database for storing the views. We are now using Redis 8.0-M04, which is faster than 7.4.
VPN Detection API
Now self hosted, using X4BNet's VPN List,** I **made my own VPN detection API, made in the same website files, not a new project, for enhanced speed.
This API is to ensure the views API doesn't get botted using a proxy or a VPN, and if it gets botted (very hard) I can see the requests and abuse report the IP.
NextJS
I updated to NextJS 15.2.3😳 (funny vulnerability)
