Who turned off the Sunwell?

My brother kept asking me "Do you know where to go for upgraded <slot>" so I made an addon for him to search for loot by item slot.
My brother is older than the dinosaurs, but he recently came back to wow after 15\~ years. He would keep messaging me asking for insight on where would be best to go for a certain slot. He would also be kinda lost if I was unavailable, and has had multiple instances of googling the question but the higher SEO results being outdated info. He just generally didn't like having to check external websites and felt like the journal was too annoying to page through each time, and I agree!
So i built WhereLoot.
You open it by typing /whereloot or /wl, pick your spec (it may auto-detect if your loot spec is selected), pick a slot, then it shows you what drops for that slot across raids, dungeons, and the world bosses. No more clicking through the journal like a crazy person trying to find a ring.
It gets the data from the adventure guide itself, the only thing I had to hardcode was the current seasonal dungeons, but this will be updated automagically every patch after a few hours of the new season releasing. This means that it should use \~1mb of memory at most, and simply always work even if items are hotfixed, changed, added, or removed.
example: searching for rings
Curseforge Link:
https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/whereloot
Type /whereloot, /wl, or click the button bottom right of the opened journal -> confirm spec -> click item slot -> info!
This is my first actual addon, I mostly tested it just myself, and with some help from guildies, shoutout Dex, Elm, Ruger, Panso, Trinkz, Gabe & Drinx for helping. But please let me know if there's any issues, or anything that could be added without overcomplicating or overbloating the addon and bear with me for any inefficiencies <3
I made two other very very tiny addons, for super niche usecases, that some of yall may find useful:
Perma-Checks the "Current Expansion Only" button, and does literally nothing else:
https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/current-expansion-only-perma-check
Removes the "NEW" tags all over settings:
https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/midnight-remove-settings-notification
Things I will add to WhereLoot:
\- M+ item levels, by key level, including great vault.
\- Sorting by secondary combos, instead of only by slot (example: see all crit/haste loot in the tables)
Things I in theory want to add, but don't know if it's doable yet:
\- letting you create a wishlist, so you have a personal dashboard to track what dungeons to run - kinda like a reminder list, instead of needing to search each time.
\- some way to let you import a bis-list or a sim string.

I live in Silvermoon and what the f*ck is going on!?!

I'm just a regular sin'dorei living in downtown Silvermoon. I make my living selling stuff to adventurers and repairing their gear. I'd just been to the inn yesterday for a flagon of elvish wine when I was on my way home. All of a sudden, I heard a loud boom and this storm just appeared over the Sunwell without warning.
I just moved to the city from Tranquillien, so I didn't know if this is normal?
Then the Sunwell suddenly fucking exploded.
What the hell is going on?? Does anyone know? The entire city is now filled with paladins of all races (including void elves, wtf is Rommath thinking!!!!!) and they refuse to tell me anything. They just tell me to move along and everything is fine
Here's a pic I took on my S.E.L.F.I.E-camera this morning.
Does anyone know what is happening? Is it that Killian Jaeden guy again or what?

Blizz NEEDS to do something about the gathering (Zul'Aman specifically)
The mobs that spawn create an absolute toxic atmosphere. I just had a multiboxer/bots spawn 20 lashers on me and leave, gather everything nearby while I clean after them and I get nothing for it.
It's absolutely toxic and unfun. Make it phased or have them despawn if they lose combat with the "caster" or change how the whole type works.

A terrible quest in vanilla WoW 'holds a really special place in my heart', says Jeff Kaplan, but was also 'the hubris of a junior game designer who thinks he's clever but is actually a dipsh*t'

Having an uncomfortable time dealing with casters in new dungeons
I’ve been tanking highish m+ since dragonflight and and was incredibly excited when I heard blizzard planned to reduce the number of casters in packs to coincide with healer interrupt removal, but for the life of me I swear it feels like the complete opposite.
Gathering feels like shit since you interrupt a caster and they are locked out for approximately half a second before deciding to cast polymorph again. I’ve tried every tank including prot pally in m0s and it’s not the worst but it just doesn’t feel great. I really like the vibe and mechanics of the new dungeons but I just can’t put my finger on why pulling feels so jarring compared to previous seasons. What do you think?
