Who would be interested in a board for linguistics and conlanging? It would be useful to talk about the aspects of language that you probably can't talk about on other conlanging boards because they're not PC enough.

>>7935 If you're serious about it I can give you mod access to the board >>>/lang/ unless you want to make your own board.
>>7949 >>7950 I noticed that /lang/ exists but it seems more about learning natural languages than discovering and inventing linguistic features and languages. >>7950 Would the latter kind of thing be on topic for /lang/?

>>7947 >>go to https://archive.ph/ or https://archive.md/ There are also saved threads on these sites (redundancy is always good): https://ghostarchive.org/search?term=8chan.moe http://web.archive.org/web/*/https://archive.8chan.moe/* http://web.archive.org/web/*/https://8chan.moe/* >https://archive.8chan.moe/board/* For some reason the admins haven't made this clear enough, either in the shitty disclaimer they put up a few months ago or somewhere visible on the site (that threads should now be archived using https://archive.8chan.moe ). I wouldn't be surprised if many continue to archive threads with the main domain without realizing this detail.
>>7963 Less than a month ago you can save the thread with images as before. I heard about it from those who save without using the archive.8chan https://archive.ph/L83O8 I do not know since when the change happened.
>>7964 It only works with Archive Today, in the other archivers the disclaimer is still displayed: http://web.archive.org/web/20230420024601/https://8chan.moe/site/res/7894.html https://ghostarchive.org/archive/zolXR Personally, I don't think it's right to give that preference to an archiver over the others, what happens if tomorrow the chan is banned from there or if Archive Today closes?

Only solve one captcha Anonymous 08/25/2022 (Thu) 14:28:21 Id: e3bad1 No. 6606 [Reply]
If I solve a board's captcha, it should also solve the site captcha. I hate solving a captcha only for another one to pop up. It's pointless. There should be only one to solve. I understand that some boards have a per-post captcha. That would not be affected, but solving one of those would also solve the site captcha.

>Total media size: 326.84 GB Holy shit, I remember when it was around 40 GB just one year ago. Just what the hell is being stored that takes so much space? Do these 300 GB include backups, banners and custom themes?

>>6718 >* Use a quantizer like http://pngnq.sourceforge.net/ to compress the image. It seems to be the most reasonable and easiest option to implement. I was doing some tests with the image of >>6801 and these are my results: Original size: 72.34 KB Size after uploading from clipboard: 1.17 MB Size after compressing the reuploaded image with pngnq: 208.54 KB The only drawback is that the new replies may take a little longer to appear due to the additional processing required by using pngnq. >* Save them as webp instead of png. Beyond the bullshit, it could be useful in certain cases. In this chan it wouldn't make much sense (I think), but if you manage a chan and it runs on a VPS with space limitations, then it would be necessary to save every MB you can. One way to achieve this would be with some option to indicate in which format by default to save the images that come from the clipboard (png, jpg or webp), perhaps along with an explanation of the pros and cons of each. >>6723 >Imageboards thrive on the ability to use lossless, artifact-free formats But that does not mean that it can be used for everything indiscriminately. For example, with https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Vienna-big.tif (which weighs 3.94 GB) I got the following when I converted it into these formats: PNG: 2034.84 MB JPG (92% quality): 171.08 MB As you can see, using png is not always ideal.

(156.89 KB 3449x1940 Top 50 boards by size.png)

>>7713 Not really. Based on the data attached in this answer, the following conclusions can be made: * >>>/delicious/ is the heaviest board with 64.13 GB. * >>>/dpsn/ only weighs 8 KB, which makes it the lightest of the chan. There are also a few boards that have text-only threads or are completely empty. * The data set that I was analyzing only covers 770.21 GB that are from the accessible boards, the rest (approximately 376.67 GB) belong to non-indexed boards. * The Spanish boards (around 30, although most of them were opened after the closure of hispachan.org) weigh together 77.36 GB, while the Indian boards (>>>/india/, >>>/indiachan/ and >>>/aic/) only occupy 2.17 GB. That in total would be a little more than 10%. Below I leave the script in Bash that I made to get the data: # TODO: Get the number of pages of the boards list automatically boards=$({ for pagelist in $(seq 1 5); do # Make an HTTP request to the site's board listing response=$(curl --header 'Cookie: disclaimer=1' --referer "https://8chan.moe" "https://8chan.moe/boards.js?page=$pagelist"); # Extract the board names from the response echo "$response" | grep -oE '<a class="linkBoard" href="/(\w+)/">' | cut -d"/" -f2; done; }) # Use an array to store the name of the boards along with the file sizes of each one declare -A board_sizes;

Question Anonymous 03/19/2023 (Sun) 01:08:01 Id: 8cb63a No. 7855 [Reply]
Can I ask (and get an answer) how does the IB convert the special syntax (like in moe) and urls to html tags? It does use some javascript library? I tried to look at LynxChan source code but I don't even know where to start, lol. >also Sorry for my english.
Nevermind, found it.

/pe/ in /hispachan/ into an emergency Chupapi 03/17/2023 (Fri) 20:17:15 Id: e788b6 No. 7850 [Reply]
Hi, I'm looking for advices and information about the process of claim a board, in this case is the board /pe/ because the last Board Owner of that board forgot his password and Peruvians are afraid of losing the board because of inactivity. Please, if you gave me the power to be the new B.O. of this board /pe/ it would have been fantastic.
>>7850 Board Owners are required to verify their e-mail before they can create a board (although there are some ways around this), so he should be able to reset him password. If he has issues receiving the e-mail or resetting his password, he can e-mail me from whatever address he signed up with and I can reset the password manually. Please instruct him to e-mail codexx (at) cock (dot) li. I will put a hold on board claims for /pe/ for now so that he can regain access.
Traduce esto a español por favor.

BO of /mex/ abuses his power and avatarfagging with an alter ego Anonymous 03/13/2023 (Mon) 17:01:45 Id: e00962 No. 7812 [Reply]
BO of /mex/ abuses his power and avatarfagging with an alter ego while banning other anons for much less, >>>/mex/30593 in this thread we can see how desperate and angry he gets to be discovered, >>>/hispachan/158726 In this other one you can see how the bo is still desperate while more people realize the truth, pic related is bo desperate and angry I hope you can analyze the case and make the best decision for the board,

Ignore this flooder crying bitch. He's furious because he's not allowed to flood his shit and bother others and be annoying on the board. In the threads that he posts, you can see how he exposed himself, in his own words, as a liar trying to manipulate people over and over again against the BO so in the end everyone sent him to eat shit.for being an asshole throwing a tantrum who lies and invents nonsense.
>>7812 no hablo inglés 💀
>>7815 This is probably the BO of mex, the only one who self-defends or defends the avatarfag, the only one who defends him and with great hatred in his black heart on 3 boards all month.

what is the minor bug report thread? I'm using the latest version of Firefox on windows 7 (for retrogaming) and I have no icons, nor the icons for the report, hide thread, hide image, etc. menus.
>>7712 It has happened to me too. The solution they proposed was to either keep deleting cache/session until it fixed itself or try and install the iconpack, neither worked.

Can you tell me how "Thread Limit (Total)" works? What's the default and maximum number of threads that a board can have? How much are they in terms of "pages"? I want to expand my board from its actual limit to 20 pages.
>>7694 Currently the global limit is 450 threads per board, 16 threads per page. This gets you just over 28 pages. You cannot increase the local thread limit above the global thread limit. But you already have more than 20 pages available. Page count is pretty arbitrary. Calculations like "Early 404" work purely on how far down the overall list something is, not what page it falls on. Also, I'm considering reducing the number of threads per page in exchange for additional reply previews, so these numbers may be adjusted in the future.
>>7694 Yes. DO NOT TOUCH IT. You will fuck up and delete half your catalog >no I wont YES YOU WILL.

what is the point of this site? Anonymous 12/02/2022 (Fri) 00:54:56 Id: 8d8dfc No. 7441 [Reply]
it sucks and dead. nothing like 8chan. you can make it better by: - decentralizing it - doing away with boards and use hashtags instead i honestly don't see the point of this site continuing to operate. you should just shut it down. wHAT THE FUCK. holy shit THIS SITE FUCKING SUCKS., i forgot to add an image when posting. i add an image, solve the captcha, and it says "Flood detected" and i had to wait 128 seconds. what kind of shit programming is behind this shit site?
5 posts omitted.
>>7456 >you can just call decentralization a failed experiment without having to schizopost about it. It's not wrong though, schizopost or not. It is generally agreed upon that the webring as a whole is a catastrophic failure, although users residing within webring sites don't like to admit this, it is clear as day that this is the case. The webring has dwindling userbases, low activity, powertripping BOs, admins and vols, inter-site drama and thriving saboteurs to show for it.
You sound perturbed, OP. Image board software is free, go and set up your own image board site if you think you can do it better.Thanks and have a nice 2023 y'hear.

ClipboardImage Anonymous 09/07/2022 (Wed) 21:33:16 Id: 09741f No. 6747 [Reply]
Pasted images are no longer named ClipboardImage. How am I supposed to show my utter disdain for clipboard images if I don't know whether or not they were pasted from clipboard?
>>6747 Yes, change it back to ClipboardImage. Nobody fucking asked for this gay change.
In addition to what has already been said, another problem I find with this is that there may be many who do not know that you can upload images from the clipboard (and https://8chan.moe/.static/pages/posting.html does not make it clear either). At least when a newfag sees that one or more files are called "Clipboardimage.xxx" they might ask something like why there are files named like that?.
