A long time ago, my friend 
A few days ago, I suddenly remembered this project and thought to myself... why not rebuild it? This time with a more modern design and maybe a fun winner animation. So I opened up the Google AI Studio and started working on it. It took me a bit of time and several rounds of prompt tweaking, but in the end, I managed to create a new version of the tool. It is now simple, clean, and works just as well — if not better. The design is minimal and focuses on the core function, but I also added a smooth animation for when the winner is selected. I think this makes the experience more exciting and fun for everyone watching.

Since the website does not require server.js or similar, I host the tool on Github Pages.

Features (so far)
I am still planning to add more functions and improvements, but for now, here is a list of everything that works already:
You can add participants either by loading the comments from a Hive blog post or by entering them manually. Each participant should be placed on a new line.
There is a smart filter that can include or exclude known bots and spammers. These are the accounts that often comment but are not supposed to be part of the giveaway.
You can set a custom fairness seed for each round. This is useful if you want to ensure transparency and fairness for your audience.
The current Hive block number is shown on the screen, so it is clear which block the result is based on.
The profile pictures of all participants are displayed next to their usernames, making the list more visual and interesting.
If needed, you can also remove specific participants manually before running the raffle.
There is a separate page where you can view the list of excluded accounts and bots, which helps with transparency.
Winners are saved in the local storage of your browser. This is useful if you want to pick several winners one after another without losing track.
The website includes a dark mode and a light mode. You can easily switch between them using the toggle button in the header.
There is a separate page with more details about the fairness system and how the winner is selected.
