If you don't like discord, post in this thread, fellow 420channers.

We are refugees here… please respect us, you don't have to like us.

Is there an effortpost archive? If not, should there be?
I think it would be good to have a place where the worthwhile posts would be archived and accessible, not just screenshots but properly published in article form, sort of like leftypol's own small magazine. It would encourage userbase to put more though and effort into their posts, knowing that what they write has a chance of not getting eternally buried within couple hours of hitting New Reply.

I like that idea. It would be helpful to have when you're trying to go back and look at a post that's 404'd, and the idea of just having an effortpost magazine sounds kinda nice

MODS, could you give some feedback what you think about this idea? Is it something that could be implemented?

Text is not exactly a lot of data to store, would probably be better than relying on individuals to screencap.

What would be nice is a little metadata too that would tell you things like the OP or any other posts it's replying to directly so people have context.

Maybe I'm just more perceptive then I was a few weeks ago but it feels like there's way more borderline Demcel and Radlib threads than before. Maybe it's just Trump's victory making some people who didn't care about the election before snap into Lost-Dem brain, but a lot of it started before the votes were counted.

>Maybe it's just Trump's victory making some people who didn't care about the election before snap into Lost-Dem brain
That's almost certainly exactly what happened.

>but a lot of it started before the votes were counted.

Lib hysteria is one of the most potent substances on the internet. Of course it'd start up before the election was over; they were chomping at the bit.

For me, the big sign of a psyop isn't a bunch of people behaving a certain way out of seemingly nowhere, but rather people behaving inorganically. For example, there's been multiple instances of people dumping an unsolicited opinion in a thread that has nothing to do with said opinion, and then making no real attempt at rebuttal beyond repeating their initial statement and very simplistic namecalling. There's also been cases where a small number of posters will express a somewhat unusual viewpoint incessantly and as if it was common on the site for a short period of time, only to vanish within the month. To me, these kinds of behaviors glow more than anything. I'm not saying that there's zero actual human beings who post this way, but the behaviors are definitely symptomatic of someone who's goal is to push something.

I'm afraid yes.

To address the schizoposters who belive this thread was shadowbanned or anything (feature which vichan doesn't even have): the thread isn't moving due to a bug in vichan.
And for whatever reason it doesn't produce an error.

Requesting autoplay for gifs on threads & thread thumbnails
As of now, you have to actually click a gif to play it, the board will look better with animated thumbnails.
Nukechan has it, why don't we?

So will it be implemented?
What happened Zankaria?

Shitty defaults are shit even if you can disable them & I usually have cookies off.

>>39592
Then it could be disabled by default and enabled by settings
I don't get why you think it would look shit, it looks good on nukechan and other sites, the catalog looks a lot more lively

8chan was basically the perfect website in that it combined the anonimity of 4chan with the community creation aspect of Reddit, it would be nice to see this feature implemented here.

you can derive my whole idea from two theories: first, that alt-boards poperly managed could grow the site as a whole by drawing in people who're left-wing but don't have politics as a primary hobby, and secondly by drawing in people of varied politics who don't have a board, or who's board/site is dying.
second, that the problem with alt boards is that nobody is personally responsible for their success or failure, so they're just a kind-of-irrelevant adjunct to /leftypol/. why would a mod try to promote /games/ to someone vaguely lefty who wants a less shit /v/ when they could promote /leftypol/? how much time does a full-time sitewide mod have to promote /leftypol/ anyway? and, if they do it in an embarrassing way, how do you distance the site as a whole from one person's mistaken actions? all resolvable questions if the board is semi-independent: i would promote my board because it is mine and because if the board fails to thrive it will be taken away, how i do so is left to me (perhaps i outsource modding to my mods and promote myself, perhaps i outsource promoting and mostly mod myself…), and if i fuck up the site admins can point entirely at me, or in the worst cases, topple me.

no money should be involved - letting people buy their own dead boards would just clog up the site. which boards were allowed should still be a matter of rational consideration: does this board idea make sense? does this person seem like they're half-sane and, more importantly, do they have a plan to make it work?
if we try the idea and it fails, well, at least we'd learn something, maybe something applicable to another stab at novel variations on imageboard governance. at the moment all we're learning is that a site with a low influx of new users gets slower and more boring over time, and that merely creating your own /g/, /v/, /a/, /mu/, /i/ and /k/ with blackjack and hookers doesn't do much to excite anyone.

we 100 billion% need less boards. literally who even bothers going on anything other than /leftypol/ and /Siberia/

>>39567
/edu/ is also useful but honestly /latam/ was kind of a flop and all of the hobby boards should be fused into one

File: 1739151126547.gif (478.75 KB, 282x257, 1412070156060.gif)

This website isn't fucking fast enough to justify more than a few boards. Stop with these dumbass requests. If anything we should merge some of the slow off-topic boards and allow slightly more off-topic posts on the main board.

I've been browsing via mobile phone for like a year and suddenly

1) ALL POSTING IS BLACK THEMED;

2) CAN'T CHANGE THEME ANYMORE.

>literally stuck with low-contrast theme for now

P.S. I'm like the OP of 9 leftypol threads.

pic obv unrelated

THERE'S NO OPTION TO CHANGE THEMES ANYMORE




WHAT THE FUCK

Theme is in Options in the navbar now, not the bottom bar.



 

Reasons:

1- others have just as messed up or incomplete notion of theory as I do.
2- Trump inauguration and China's advancements in AI, fighter jets, make me feel like socialism is in good hands, even if most of us will burn in capitalism when La Lutte Finale starts.
3- Shit posting isn't Praxis.
4- Mods are a bit reluctant on some obvious changes (fag word filtered to comrade, ban on rape threats)
5- Tiresome to deal with /pol/ raids / NATO Pedo raids every day.
6- Life exists to be lived, not expended in Shitposting. So I touch grass, socialist or not.
7- I should spend more time reading theory.
8- Comrade Kimi and Comrade DeepSeek would probably want me to spend more time with them.

Keep your spirits up and keep on fighting the good fight!
5 posts omitted.

See you again tomorrow! 😊

If you spend lots and lots of time here, it may be nice trying disciplining yourself. Although you do not have to take the heavy burden of a sudden leave in case it is difficult for you. You can go with slow steps, as long as you do not neglect things you want to do such as reading.

>>39524
Migrating to RedNote, you pedos.

>>39531
Honestly I'm worried that reactoids and glowies will just end up not only owning the mod team, but owning the discourse. We're getting regular /pol/ raids, and I guess I don't feel like moving on.

>>39517
Oh no no no! Come back anon!
…and nothing of value was lost.
