hi /tech/ , have you seen the federated chans that are coming along?

https://fchan.xyz is 4chan + ActivityPub. It's a bit rough around the edges, but it's going to be able to connect to other ActivityPub projects like Lemmy and Mastodon later.

https://0chan.vip is a tag-based textboard that will soon gain a scraper. It also has user-managed boards with stickies, permasage, and a "soft delete" that hides threads in board view, but doesn't delete them from the server. see http://0chan.vip/b/meta/

NNTPchan was kind of cool but it was pretty busted. It fizzled out after a year.

I spent a fair bit of time trying to understand NNTPchan when 8ch was shut down because I see decentralized federation as the only real way to fight back against the CDN-DDoS racket and resist censorship. It was disappointing to me when so many diaspora communities went and decided to just clone the old traditional image board site model all over again without seeking to address how they lost their community in the first place. It was even more disappointing to find out how unpopular NNTPchan was.

if you want that than make a general decentralization layer protocol, that everybody can use to build on top, add something to the general purpose network stack, instead of making specialized applications.

Might as well bump this too

The two sites ought to develop and adopt an fchan fork and then follow each other. But of course they never would because the ability for users to move to another server without creating an isolated community would directly threaten janny privilege.
