{% if b2 == b %}
<option value="{{ b2 }}" selected>/{{ b2 }}/</option>
{% else %}
<option value="{{ b2 }}">/{{ b2 }}/</option>
{% endif %}
{% endfor %}If either the board parameter sent from search.php to search_form.html is renamed to 'b', or the equality test is switched to 'board', the search form should pick up the correct board as its initial selection.

>>15365Maybe the global $board interferes with the twig template, although I can't see why it would, and we should just switch both the loop variable equality test target and the Element parameter to
searchboard.

I just realized that this site is literally fully fucking functional without using JavaScript.
I want to give the devs a french kiss right now. A commie imageboard run by unpaid volunteers handles JavaScript better than most Fortune 500 websites.

>>16239I admittedly only really use 4chan so I can't speak for others, but with 4chan the catalog, posting (as you pointed out with the captcha part), and many other smaller little things don't work without JS. You can still browse and read but it's a much less pleasant experience than /leftypol/.

Should there be an option to see "other pages" of posts? There are topics that seem to be visible only through enabling the catalog, but without that you can only see the newest posts on a single "page" of the standard UI. This is in contrast to some other imageboards (notably 4chan, among others) where you can select page 2, 3 etc.. displaying posts without having to go to the catalog display.
Is it intended functionality to not have that feature here (and a few other boards that seem to be on a similar vichan codebase like lain )? Or is there some strangeness going on on my browser's end, possibly because of addons or the like? Thanks.

Looks like it's a local thing if you're not seeing the page list at the bottom of the board index.

Hey could we add .jxl support? It's supported by default on librewolf, and I think the only reason chrome is holding off on it is because it competes with .webp, but chrome still supports it via about:flags.
We could make some absurdly storage efficient memes with it, like sub-kilobyte file sizes, and even double digit byte sizes.

>>18177you're not going to get that kind of performance with general image compression usage. while neat the kind of features on display here scream "difficult to parse" and therefore "security/DoS risk". fun that inercia ran a jxl compo tho
No.18195
>>17328>>18177I'm not sure it's a good idea to at the moment.
The reason we only added webp for thumbnails is because all the common-enough browsers and forks worked fine.
Only issue was apparently one guy whose browser version did support it but his setup was broken. We didn't add support for uploading them, because they're still considered an annoying non-default format on many operating systems. Well, unless that's changed in the past year. I haven't kept up with formats/compatibility for a while so I'm open to counterpoints.
Until .jxl and av1 formats get more mainstream support, I don't think it's wise to allow either of them to be uploaded. Especially if Chrome doesn't support them (out of the box). The average griller user shouldn't be expected to dig into their most-common-in-the-world browser just to make images show up.

The RSS feed for the overboard seems to be broken, all the links point to /leftypol/, even if they're on other boards like /siberia/. So 404 since there's no threads on /leftypol/ with that number.
