Interest in a Kemono/Coomer scraper?

Hello Lemmy piracy subreddit,

Posting this here as the reddit sub has a karma threshold which I don't meet and can't be bothered to pander to.

I've written 2 GUI-bases programs that were originally CLI as a personal project. These programs allow you to batch download posts from a single creator on the party networks Kemono and Coomer. Both feature an automatic translation toggle allowing all posts and the creators name to be translated (uses Google translate API) and has various config options.

Considering this was a relatively simple and straightforward tool, I feel it's a bit niche and thus am asking the community whether they would like this program to be released. If enough people want it, then I'll release it publically as long as the kemono and Coomer devs are fine with it. The tools don't really do any aggressive behaviors as it mimics an actual user as much as possible (selenium is not used here for the nerds reading, only raw GET requests) and doesn't tax kemono/Coomer servers to my knowledge. If this is incorrect then I obviously will revoke the release if applicable.

Please let me know in the comments if this is something you'd be interested in using, or if this is too niche of a program.
