Is there anything in programming as disgusting as double-encoded json?
gzip + base64 _after_ is a close second
double base64 is somewhere in there, too

@nikitonsky I've dealt with triple nested JSON before. So many backslashes and quotes when grepping 🫠 @nikitonsky recently found out that one internal page requires data to be passed as this: urlencode in utf8, base64, urlencode again. Why twice? Why not just URL-variant of base64? No idea. @nikitonsky and then add this json as field to another json... and then double encode it again 😁 @nikitonsky Binary as a JSON number array with elements in the range -128 to 127 is good for the old blood pressure |
@nikitonsky Caldav.
