make Marsey the mascot to trick dramastrags and watchpeoplediecels into using the site

add a banner to the overboard (it should rapidly flash between bright colors to give overboard users seizures [they deserve it])

>>6 ok I have realized I do not know how to make gifs, have this instead

I made this one for /site/ since I realized it also doesn't have any banners.

>>5 I assure you our current mascot has plenty of drama baggage too and I feel a bit attached to her for historical reasons >>6 >>7 Nah that's gay >>8 Ok this one is fine, thanks

>>9 Tell me the deep lore on Capybara-chan.

Mister janny, could you please change the max file size to exactly 33554432 bytes for the sake of my autism? Thank you very much. Also, JSchan has a checkbox to replace the filename with a hash when posting, which is a very nice feature.

>>11 >33554432 bytes What's so special about this number? I smell some cheeky engine exploit, google is returning quite a few results with memory errors. >Also, JSchan has a checkbox to replace the filename with a hash when posting, which is a very nice feature. What's the purpose for this? I have not yet decided if I want to continue using LynxChan and develop it further since stephen doesn't give a fuck, or switch to another engine (like possibly JSchan). But if I decide for the former I can add this to my todo list, should be easy to implement since the hash is already being computed for each file.

>>12 Are you serious? Come on, it's really obvious. What base do computers usually count in? How many bytes are in a kilobyte?

>>13 Yeah I started from converting to other units and the only one that seemed interesting was 32 MiB, except LynxChan appears to operate on MB for file uploads. 33554432 B convert to: 32768 KB 32.768 MB OR 32 MiB because tech spergs need to have ideological disputes over semantics to fill their empty lives and all the relevant settings in LynxChan use MB and I'd have to set the limit to 32.768, which would clash with my own autism for even numbers.

Overboard no longer shows all active threads anymore?

>>17 I changed it to 15 threads when I introduced the (You)s because on overboard I can't optimize the check script and feared that it would make the browser choke from two nested loops, but it looks like it's not bad so I changed it back to the default 50. It may take some time until your cache refreshes.

>>2 why are so many threads now being locked? i wanted to post some stuff in the lamia thread but can't anymore

>>19 that's a /mg/ specific thing

How hard is it to add redtext for < lines like the old 8/monster/? Not desperate for it but it's a good monstergirl voice color in greentexts.

>>21 Done, you may need to refresh this css sheet: https://capybarachan.org/.static/css/global.css and there's also some odd lingering caching that's causing < text to be still unstyled, but when you use a fresh private mode tab it will be seen in red/orange. Regardless, whatever you post with the reversed quote mark will be posted correctly even if you don't see it immediately, just that browsing cache needs to update to reflect new styling. Test: >green text <orange text

I noticed that when you post spoilered images, their original filenames are still being displayed. Filenames can contain spoilers too, would it be possible to obscure them with some generic "Spoiler Image" text?

>>23 Yeah someone already brought it up before, I'll look into it again (no promises, the code behind LynxChan is a horrible mess to work with) but at the same time I like that you can use the filename to hint what it potentially spoils. We'll see how hard it would be to implement this first.

>>24 True, but that would require everyone to be extra careful when naming their pictures. And you can probably troll by spoiling something with a filename and pretending it was inadvertent. <it says "character dies"? I used the spoiler function but forgot it still shows the filename, my bad kek Unless it's too much work or not possible, two options (spoiler thumbnail only/spoiler filename too) would be ideal.

is it just me or did the reply button on posts disappear? I can only reply using the big box on the top of the page and manually tagging a post id

>>30 The quick reply box? works fine for me, try a different theme or browser. And check for active adblockers or noscript, this board's engine is heavy on javascript.

Now that 4chan is dead, we're finally going to make it big!

Please add a favicon. Not having one makes the tab harder to find, and it's kinda lame there isn't one.

>>33 will do that later today

>>33 >>34 k done, you may need to clear your browser cache for this site to see it, I checked with new private window and there is a favicon now.

>>35 thanks

I want to ask for the post/image/page count to be viewable from inside the threads like on other chans, since that data is visible from the catalog anyway.

>>37 Will look into it

When you eventually get to fixing the (you)s, could you add (cross-thread) indicators too?

Would it be possible to add a "hide post AND REPLIES" option for improved self-moderation? The feature isn't as useful if I have to manually hide every post when a group of people get into a slappy fight. Less important but while I'm here: can a reply button be added to the bottom of threads that opens up a quick reply box without the user needing to start by quoting a post?

>>44 I got busy with all kind of work lately and this appears more complicated than other modifications I did so far so no promises, but I'll add those to my todo list.

>>45 Understandable, thanks for considering it.

Is there a meaningful difference between "Report" and "Global Report"? I assume the former shows up only for mods specific to one board and the latter for all mods, so on /mg/ with the extra guy the options are basically interchangeable, but it can make a difference if you see something shady on /amg/?

>>47 Global reports don't show for everyone, if individual boards have independent owners/mods. But anyone who has global permissions can see and act on them, even if not being part of a specific board's staff. So if you global report someone on (theoretical) board /a/, then global mods and /a/ specific staff can see it, but not the board staff from /b/. Most imageboards outside 4chan run on the principle, that individual board owners run their own show and global staff only acts on global rules or extreme circumstances (cp, excessive spam, raids).

I've notice d that the quick reply window gets lost outside of the widow if you resize your browser. Like you can't move it outside it, bu if you put it near the right ede of the screen and then resize the browser widow it stays in place and eventually disappears. It's a minor bug, but thought you should keep it in mind.

could you add a post counter at the bottom of page when viewing a thread? its kinda hard to tell when /mge/ reaches post limit otherwise.

>>50 I've added an initial implementation, only caveat is that it's ugly and for some reason you need to wait 5 seconds until the first auto refresh hits before it starts showing the stats, but for your use case it should be enough.

>>51 Thank you for your work
