I spotted an error that isn't anything serious and can be easily fixed.

I would solve this by caching the separate footer file and setting up a cron job for January 1st at 00:01.
And Links (Guidelines Privacy Contact ) going to "https://trongate.io/#"

Most likely stale boiler plate code DC has missed when the forum was brought back online.

That’s not a problem at all; the forum is wonderful. However, I don’t want ill-wishers to be able to use such trivial points as ammunition.

Since I’ve brought up the topic of minor issues: the "About The Leaderboard" box (also Compose Reply/Update Post/modal Search Forums" and pagination) remains light-colored when the forum is in dark mode.

All three of those are dealt with.
The footer year is no longer hardcoded - it renders the current year, so it reads 2023-2026 today and will roll over on its own. No cron job needed, thankfully.
The Guidelines and Privacy links were placeholders pointing at trongate.io/#, and there were no pages behind them, so they have been removed. Contact now goes to the real contact page.
The dark mode patches - the "About The Leaderboard" box, the reply/update post box, the "Search Forums" modal and the pagination - all have proper dark styling now.
DaFa, you were right about the boilerplate: that is exactly what it was.
Good catches, both of you.
