❔ A good dynamic data storage

why do you need to use two different languages?
assuming you control both programs you should just pick one
Because one is listening to youtube chat and the other uses it to generate the dialogue
right but why do those two things have to be separate programs
I dont know how c# could could pick stuff up from a live stream chat
you need to give more details
how are you reading the chat? an API? screen capture with OCR?

still, this seems like something you could do either entirely in C# or entirely in python
which would eliminate your IPC problem
