Greetings comrades, and welcome to a great era of
Spring Cleaning! Of course, Spring Cleaning cannot be done without janitors, so to facilitate a good and clean board, we are asking for volunteers to step forward and offer their services as jannies to
help keep the board clean!
In addition, we are also asking for tech-orientated volunteers to help with development of the site's code and features, especially if you have experience with
web design, common website coding languages, and/or development of mobile apps.
To Apply:1. Log-in to your preferred email account, and compose an email directed towards
[email protected]2. Decide on a short code word or phrase to identify yourself with, using it as the first part of your email and posting it on this thread.
3. Answer a short questionnaire, outlined below:
How would you describe your personal political tendency?How long have you browsed or posted on /leftypol/ or her alt-boards?Have you any experience working with leftist groups in the past?How do you want to help the administration of leftypol.org?How often will you be available to your work described above?4. Post your favorite leftist work: art, book, or other - be it as an attachment, link, or just the title or even an excerpt from it.
5. Send the email (double-checking it is to
[email protected])!
And that is it! The moderation team will take some time to review emails and get back to you, if your application is selected then your email will be replied to with a link to an element chatroom for a short informal interview before voting on your approval. Please be patient, as many people may be interviewed before you finally are selected.
If you are not selected for an interview, it will most likely be due to the desired quota of new mods being reached - do not be discouraged, there is always next time!
>>574359>especially if you have experience with web design, common website coding languages, and/or development of mobile apps.If it's just maintaining leftypol-lainchan i doubt many will be interested in maintaining that piece of crap. Leftypol probably needs a rewrite as has been discussed endlessly in
https://leftypol.org/tech/res/11160.html Bottom line is for it to be maintainable it will probably have to be written in PHP just in a newer framework like Slim or Laravel. Other languages are too fucking bigbrain and now accessible to plebs.
>>574360There is a rebase onto vichan that I developed which is functional and live on a test server, just missing a few little extra bits like our captcha which can get pulled in from the leftypol-lainchan codebase. It's still got vichan's problems but is much better than leftypol-lainchan and has much-wanted additional features patched in from other forks.
A pure rewrite is only good for as long as you can keep writing, and to me seems like a huge waste of time. Look where Barbara Pitt's fork ended up. If vichan isn't an option, I'd just fork one of the two other active imageboard softwares.
>>574376You're right, it works, but that time and effort could have been used to extend vichan or lynxchan (which already have eyes looking over them for major flaws). If we had put the added features we rely on here into lynxchan or jschan, we'd be ahead AND get upstream improvements.
If it's a personal project for other reasons, that's fine, but I recall them talking about it as if it was meant to be for this site to migrate onto. And it's definitely not at that level of features. Which is why I'm bringing it up re: #1416408
>>574382Haha I love it actually
Karen Ultra Mode
>>574382kek
funny tho, it seems the proposed solution of the staff to the userbase question is to turn more users into jannies so they have less normal users to hate
>>574384Finished HS yesterday with the last of the final tests, and now I have much time to moderate threads!
>Do what message saysI'll go forward with it!
Since this thread is a mess let's bring it:
->Yes we need an app, or at the very least an update that is apparently not so hard to do but no one wants to work on
https://github.com/PietroCarrara/Clover/releases/tag/leftypol-v0.0.25Now what we need to keep
-We need to keep the chan system of dialogue, we don't need no upvote, no downvote, no suckmydickbefamous scheme. I'm personally fine with a transformation of the platform, but posts need to be equal in this website like proletarians are in a factory.
-We need a leftybooru but better and faster without ads and shit, the ads with boobs pussy and ass are just too much, and it shouldn't cost that much to keep a few thousand .jpg files on a server
>>574394I use Tor browser
also I am the central committee
>>574387touche
"self-improvement" is a fundamentally fascist idea anyways
>>574397Look, I don't know how computers work and I don't care. I browse the booru, there are tiddy ads.
>>574398Improvement, yes - but for whom and for what purpose?
>>574393>not using an adblocker>in 2023why tho
anyway this has been fixed. the ads are hidden as intended by css.
Hey, what's going on, 302 here. I've successfully applied for the mod team but I get this response as soon as I try to join the server:
MatrixError: [403] You do not belong to any of the required rooms/spaces to join this room. (
https://matrix-client.matrix.org/_matrix/client/r0/join/%23neoleftychat%3Amatrix.org?server_name=matrix.org)
What is this and what can I do about it @krates?
>>574424Ancom uprising has started. We are going to dismantle this society down to its constituent pieces, starting by annihilating the historical foundations this imperialist system is built on.
Can't wait for this to drop:
