You actually came here and shilled and even said that a cancerous honeypot was any good? You are too funny either jim or one of his payed bitches. Since noone on the internet actually goes there

Anyway, please leave Endchan and other imageboards away from a mega FED platform. We're not interested.

webp is a pain, we have not implemented it. Thumbnail would still be JPEGs, so I don't think an option is needed.

Custom Spoiler size Anonymous 03/24/2023 (Fri) 21:11 [Preview] No. 18447 [Reply] [Last 50 Posts]
So how should custom spoilers be formatted?

Normal preview images are 255x255px but a spoiler that size apparently gets compressed to something like 255x172px distorting the image.

I managed to create an undistorted spoiler by embedding it in a transparent 255x172 image but then the resulting visible preview is only 172px high instead of 255 like normal images.

Any way to fix this?

https://endchan.gg/test/res/5705.html#5706 looks fine to me


Anonymous 03/28/2023 (Tue) 19:54 [Preview] No.18460 del
yes because this spoiler is only 100x100px. If height is above 172px it gets distorted. I just wanted to make a spoiler the same size of the other 255x255 preview images so it's not immediately recognizable as such but nvm it's not a real issue.

Endchan Movie Corner Anonymous Global volunteer 01/26/2020 (Sun) 20:04 [Preview] No. 10923 [Reply] [Last 50 Posts]
Came up on the apropos of the Christmas Special that we should hold a recurring "movie night", maybe on monthly basis. We just might do that.
The first occasion would be on the 8th of February (probably would be the 9th for Australians). One movie, and maybe two short videos, as an intro and outro, might be related to the movie itself, might not.

Right at this moment, I can't offer a more exact date, for all the timezones it is hard to plan. Was talk about 21:00 PST on the 8th which is 00:00 EST and 16:00 AET on the 9th. However this is too early for Europeans on Sunday. Maybe we could offer two streams with some gap between.
Also no titles yet.

So ideas, suggestions are welcomed.

Users reporting lost media on several boards. Not sure what happened yet, or we can recover the lost images. For now it seems the whole html element that contains the uploads is missing from the posts, so it's not like the media itself in the db got lost.
But will see.

It would probably be a huge chore restoring so many images in so many threads.
That does raise the question though, were the images deleted off the site or just from the post? and If the images were not deleted off the site would it be possible to get links to those images for their respective boards?

No. We don't know what image belongs to what post. That data is exactly what was deleted.

Board page limit Anonymous 03/12/2023 (Sun) 06:50 [Preview] No. 18418 [Reply] [Last 50 Posts]
Is it possible to increase the total possible page count for a specific board? There are threads on my board that I don't want to lose but we are bumping up against the page limit and important threads are starting to be lost.


Anonymous Admin 03/12/2023 (Sun) 07:49 [Preview] No.18419 del
There is a maximum amount of threads. It's the default. BOs can decrease it.
Imageboards weren't meant to be used as archives, and as opposed to regular forums threads are ephemeral by design. You could archive threads with some online tools, liek:
https://web.archive.org/save
https://archive.ph/

>>18419
ah, alright, no worries then. I think the threads are already archived anyway, it just would have been nice to have some way to keep them on the board, the nature of the threads on this particular board being intended to be a bit less ephemeral than those on others.


Anonymous Admin 03/26/2023 (Sun) 06:22 [Preview] No.18449 del
>>18420
Alternative suggestion:
- save the page of a thread
- zip it
- upload the zip to a dedicated thread, with a description of the archived thread
Endchan starts autosaging at 500 posts, but the bump limit is 1000. I think max amount of files in a post is 5. So theoretically you could keep 500-5000 threads archived in a thread.
Media heavy threads, like bunch of webm/mp4s are different a bit...
Pls don't use imageboards as data storage facilities...

The captcha button has no reload button in the reply pop-up. It doesn't always reload automatically, in turn causing the user the need to refresh the page.

Is there a way to sort pinned threads and keep the one with the board rules always on top even if another pinned thread receives new posts?


Anonymous Admin 03/21/2023 (Tue) 16:49 [Preview] No.18442 del

I'm not aware.
You could try adding the rules into the board message. Can format it with custom CSS.


Anonymous Admin 03/21/2023 (Tue) 20:51 [Preview] No.18443 del
>>18441
Another thing. On the top of the page just below the posting form there is that...
>Remember to follow the rules
...line
That contains board rules you set in board management under...
>Manage rules
...option.
You can keep board rules there and make that line more apparent with CSS.
We're gonna try to make it more obvious for users by default so maybe no custom CSS will be needed.

6th birthday

When we started Endchan, to me, it was a bet on user experience. 8chan was going to switch to InfinityNext, which now 9chan uses. I bet that users would not like the instant jump to a radical new interface and prefer the older interface.

8chan was leaving Infinity, their existing software, for many reasons. Mainly it was hacked together without much thought to the structure. InfinityNext was a carefully approached re-imagination of what 8chan could be.

Selecting infinity for Endchan was not wise for a couple reasons. First what if InfinityNext was never finished. This was a real concern at the time, we even name our git repos InfinityNow as a joke around this idea it may never happen. And we had this luxury because not only had I made an imageboard engine and turned it into an archival system called Futabilly for 8archive after its backend couldn’t keep up. But mainly because StephenLynx had started a project after InfinityNext and before Futabilly and he had a great fast engine ready to be put to the test. 8TailedLynx a theme for Lynxchan also helped provide a similar interface to 8chan. My engine didn’t have no-js support, so it wasn’t even an option.

We were the prime Lynxchan instance for a couple of years until the disagreements over the direction of LynxChan added up and I just decide it would back-port features and fixes as needed. This has left our site feeling old and stale. We’ve had a couple boards disagree with our decision and have left for new instances running with the latest LynxChan.

InfinityNext was somewhat completed but 8chan failed to migrate to it. It was handed off to NextChan which they continued some development until Josh regained the will to implement another chunk and launched 9chan.

Josh’s 9chan plans didn’t quite work out as he expected and said if someone, like us, didn’t take over he was going to shut it down.

After we took over 9chan, over the next year we learned what it cost to not have a strong personality as well as lead developer with the promise to continue to transform imageboards into the future.

I had some code for a new imageboard / social media hybrid, called WrongThink. And after discussion with some other developers, one proposed the idea of unifying all sites under one look and feel.

From what I've seen VPN endpoints are in Korea, France and wherever, rarely if ever in the US. These are all US IPs. And what VPN service gives someone 6000 unique IPs in under an hour? This is more likely a botnet.

>no flood protection to cover this kind of thing
What do you propose? How would you solve the problem?
The traffic looks like normal from the side of the server. It's a file and text. All random. Filename, size, image ratio. How do you make a rule that picks up on it? What if a legit new poster appears and he also gets stopped? All new threads start with 1 UID, how to stop flood but not stop new thread creation of legit users?
We have measures in place, and captcha stops. But they can train that. So we experiment to get on top of it. We'll find a permanent solution eventually (and probably the spam with stop with the end of the US midterms), but we are open for useful propositions of solutions. We listen.

Add a word filter every time new spam comes in. So if a specific phrase gets posted, you add that to a word filter and make sure nobody can make a new thread using that phrase.

Maybe add a filter to random urls that get posted in single post threads, or an inspector for it.

This will effect several boards.
Got an ultimatum from Roskomnadzor to take down some content, else they'll block our domain. Since we won't comply we advise users to explore our alternative access options, and ofc look up possible ways to avoid government censorship.
