Please change your board re-claiming approach or we migrate our communities out of 8chan.moe Anonymous 07/02/2022 (Sat) 03:00:38 Id: a9123e No. 6163 [Reply]

I shouldn't have to re-login when I'm still logged in just to prevent you from handing over the board to some troll who nukes everything. Instead of discreetly handing away the board over without providing any notice to the current BO (most of us use throwaway emails) or community to a potential board nuker, you should first actually post a thread with your admin/mod tag on that board notifying the community that someone has claimed the board and the BO has one week to re-login. For example another board /loomis/ was recently sabotaged by a new board owner (the original one was always there and posted frequently and did mod actions, but didn't re-login) who proceded delete several threads. I on principle will refuse to re-login to my own board, because that's a really stupid system you have where a BO who's still logged in can get his board stolen by a board nuker because you're not willing to make any effort to actually check whether the board even needs a new BO or not and post a notification on the board about a board claim. You are aware that you have several rivals (anoncafe, zzzchan et al.) from your childish webring drama who will exploit this process and nuke boards to bring them over to their own sites, right? If you don't change this broken policy within a week then I'll have you know that I and a few other board owners will be migrating our boards out of 8chan.moe, we all know how to do server and site administration, configure BIND9 DNS servers, find the cheapest and best VPS & domain registration deals (e.g. there are various excellent DMCA-ignoring pro-free-speech VPS providers based in Russia for example, not just your basic bitch pro-censorship globohomo Western VPS providers that you normies settle for), mask domain registration and hide identity with Bitcoin payments, set up reverse proxies, PHP programming (Lynxchan is an undocumented overengineered ANTI-MODULAR piece of trash and Node has ZERO advantage over PHP, the former of which requires a fucking server restart just to modify some code, what a garbage server runtime environment and language, I pity you having to deal with that shit, no wonder it takes days for you to figure out how to fix a simple thumbnail problem on the front-end lmao because of your piece of trash imageboard software that is hard to test and overhyped language for hipsters and corporate yuppies which by the way was never even designed for backend development but for client-side scripting, even the Node creator Ryan Dahl admitted Node was a huge mistake and is promoting Deno as a replacement), MySQL tuning, locking down several points of entry/directories with nginx for security hardening, etc. etc., so don't think we're just puffing hot air.

Nothing is lost as long as you report the problem to the administration before cobwebs start forming on your board. >>6296 I agree with >>6295 Automatically putting a countdown announcement a few days, or a week, before the board ever goes up for claims seems like a good idea. It will also expedite how quickly a board is claimed once the BO lets it go up for grabs through, since everyone using the board will be well aware when it goes up for claims.

>>6296 if an anon isn't able to log in for a period of time (let's say work is busy or some shit or life gets complicated), there should be an option to increase the login's impact, like say, maybe the longer you own the board, the more time you get from a login? Like maybe 5-8 weeks for BOs who have maintained activity for longer?

>>6169 >>6296 When jschan fetches account data for a valid session cookie, it first checks a cache. If the account data is in the cache (short TTL, like 1 hour), it uses that. Otherwise, it fetches the account from the database, updates the account last active date, then caches the account/session data again. This way the user does not have to logout and log back in to be considered active, and the 1 hour cache means you don't need to write to the database on every single request by logged in users. As long as they browse the site while logged in, their last activity will be at worst 1 hour inaccurate (or whatever the TTL of your cache is). I don't know how lynxchan handles login sessions, but it would be pretty stupid if you can't patch it to do something similar.

The catalog page uses JavaScript to provide sorting and search functionality. Previously, the way the page was built was preventing thumbnails from lazy-loading and had a number of other small issues. The new JavaScript appears to have an issue where it takes a moment to reload, and on mobile it is sometimes failing to reload. It's a known issue and we are working on it. On mobile, you can try using the side catalog in the meantime as a workaround. For the fastest response, please keep bug reports in the latest changelog thread. It is the thread checked most often.

Filenames are truncated to a certain length. On mouseover, it shows the full filename. If the filename is too long, it can trigger an erratic wrapping behavior. You can reproduce it with this post: https://8chan.moe/b/res/352013.html#q413312

This is a draft of the french translation of the defaultLanguagePack.json I worked on. You can add it but it's not yet polished. Some lines are not (yet) translated because I simply don't know how to translate them to french. I also tried to find the right balance, letting some specific / technical expressions in english on purpose. Was not really sure if I could go full autisme on this one. If you can decipher the frawg language, feel free to correct and / or give suggestions on things that can be enhanced.

Apologies for the late changelog, but 2.7 was a little unfinished and I wanted to see it polished off. This is a combined changelog for 2.7.0 through 2.7.5. Functionality Added Multiboard menu for users with JavaScript enabled. This will let you create, name, and manage Multiboards. This is a first iteration and we have a few ideas for how to improve it. Refactored a number of forms. Custom Thumbnails are now available. Let us know if you think any file formats should have their own thumbnail! You can now send multiple reports at once. Style & Markdown Dice now preserves each roll. These can be viewed by hovering over the roll. 10d6 = 45 Markdown FAQ has been updated. Fixes Fixed board message formatting regression. Fixed Loading text sticking around after a hover reply loads. Fixed some issues with filtering/hiding. Improved XSS security. Thanks to ipsec for bringing this issue to our attention.

>>5395 Can't say I've ever experienced consistent performance issues while running the site. At least not these days. I used to have constant memory leak problems with imageboards but I fixed that by putting my swap file onto an SSD instead of an HDD. I'm pretty sure Acid runs (owns?) a firearm store and Codexx is a full time programmer. I doubt the money they could harvest from some shitty browser based crypto miner would even make a dent compared to their yearly salaries. I think the most logical conclusion is that between the two of them the cost of the site just isn't a significant financial hit.

Changelog 2.6.0: Libertarian Edition Policy You may now request your board have custom JavaScript enabled. All custom JS must be non-obfuscated and compatible with the AGPLv3 license so both users and admins can check for malicious usage. You may not redirect users off-site, nor track them in any way. A number of pages have had their wording corrected. These pages have now been vetted by an attorney. "Wrong or Expired Captcha" should now occur less often. Style & Markdown CSS has been reworked. There should now be fewer files and a simpler hierarchy to traverse, along with less contradictory rules. This may break compatibility with some themes, but fixing them should be easier than making them. Please look at any of the site themes for an example of how to style a custom CSS file.

So not only can you not report multiple posts at once despite the check boxes being exposed in the UI for whatever reason, but you get "Flood detected" when reporting posts for the same reason back to back.
