Whether it's using cmake or not isn't relevant, for sure you can make
chatterino link against a libary independent of a libraries build
system.

For the code change, I only see minimal changes [1], mostly code
removals (most noeworthy removing encoding/decoding functionality and
hardcoding UTF-8 handling instead.)

Can expand on *why* you need the fork before we look at the available
options?
