STATUS SPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAM
jokes aside, i actually got a semi-decent solution now to my old problem. Moving everything over to the new solution will take a while, but should be worth it at least.
div.status [id] {display:none}
[id]:target {display:block!important}
Yea so turns out it was that easy to do things. The div.status element always being there is a bit weird, but whatever. I'll solve that eventually, for now the archives will begin transferring and be done soon
