The sidebar previously did not prioritize information as well as
desired, and the proliferation of megathreads led to a number of
icons occupying frontpage visual space despite not often being
useful to frontpage use cases. Therefore, they have been moved to
a new page.
The /directory page is predominantly created with template logic,
and it should be within the ability of our semi-technical jannie
staff to maintain.
1. Missed the notif for unfollowing a non-fish'd user in fb52003404.
2. "Get Them Help" button showed username.
3. Gift coins/mbux showed username and allowed a message.
4. Global block list showed username.
5. User profile appeared to logged-out and non-jannies.
Prior to this comment, the every-1d cron.py command was broken due
to lack of proper stats import. However, while refactoring this, it
was convenient to move other recurring tasks that had been stuffed in
odd places--not least `stats(...)`--into the new cron system. This
entailed a number of refactorings of other things.
1. Move stats(...) from static.py to helpers/stats.py.
2. Move hole inactivity purge task from stats(...) to routes/subs.py.
3. Move bot award timer checks from stats(...) to helpers/awards.py.
4. Unify award timer logic formerly in routes/front.py into the new
helpers/awards.py.
The COUNT(*) performance optimization in b71ae6cc74 was a bit
overzealous and wound up breaking four fields in /stats intended to
count distinct users who performed certain activities. These fields
were returned to their original implementation.
