Any way to find artist usernames now that the "Feed"/Stacc links are gone from artist pages?
Posted under General
I found the announcement and it does say it's a gradual change. Pixiv is indeed removing "Feed" and "My pixiv" from the profile page.

I wonder how the redesign will eventually affect the other two areas feed names are used?
Also, I'm curious if the feed name is embedded in the artist page HTML anywhere. But (un?)fortunately I haven't gotten the new version, so I can't check
New design looks like this on an artist profile page.

edit: whoops, guess we didn't need that, since the new design is shown in the Pixiv news post.
edit 2: I poked around in the HTML but didn't find feed name anywhere. Possibly it's just hidden really well....
edit 3: Ah! On illustration pages, in the source code there's "userAccount": and then the username/feed name in quotes.

I wonder though... is that functionality (Feed/Stacc URL) being removed altogether, or are the links from other pages just being removed? My guess is that it could be just the latter, especially given some of the vestigial HTML I've seen on some of Pixiv's pages. Would be interested to hear from those with the latest design if they can still visit the Feed/Stacc links or not.

I can still go to a Stacc page if it's linked on danbooru or something, and those pages appear the same as previously.
