When is someone going to make an open source imageboard

>>58666977
We'll need a logo.

There are already open source 4chan-style imageboard clones.

They suck

this cripple tried and failed

Like Facebook and Twitter, 4chan's value lies solely in its community. Network effects > ideology.

There's nothing free. Reddit was supposed to be an alternative to digg and now everyone is rich there. Fuck it, might as well just watch anime.

noone outside of /g/ cares about FOSS

Make it an orchid

This. Someone post that screenshot from chinkchan where they chinks say they only care about their pedo games and don't give a shit about freedoms

>>58667001
What is wrong with 8 chan?

>>58667023
Most of the internet runs on FOSS until the very topmost layer.

>>58667001
Does he own a Luigi or a Toad onesie?

>>58666977
It's the userbase that makes this place. People won't ever leave in enough numbers to make a new place worth it, unless 4chan dies of course, then they won't have an option.

It no longer has freedom of speech. See cp being banned.

>>58668190
Honestly it's just too slow. /tech/ and /mu/ crawls at the pace of 4chan's /wg/

>>58667001
>4chan's value lies solely in its community
Exactly, no one comes here for intelligent dialogues and artistic GUI. You come here to talk with people as shitty as you about things they like as much as you.

>>58667023
You're wrong, I'd say /g/ doesn't even care about FOSS at all, it's just a meme to people here.

>>58667023

I summon thee!

Myabe is time to make more boards so people won't complain as much.

>>58668976
Any sites you've found that have implemented it?

>>58669229
We already have enough boards.

>>58666977
The source code isn't where the value is. It's the hosting and community adoption. You cannot replicate those things just by making a new copy.

Hosting costs will eat you alive because 4chan consists entirely of leeches

>>58668190
not enough traffic to /frz/

>>58666977

Like reddit? kekekekek....

In reality, there are like 10,000 chans that are all dead af, so I think you forgot to do a Google search OP.

Make /g/-technology /g/-guro again.

>>58672961
Make me lord emperor of 4chan and I will.

Hell, I'd revert 4chan to its former glory. No more 5 bajillion boards. No more shitty Web 2.0 home page. No more fucking CAPTCHA and LOL4CHAWNGOLD because I know how to stop fucking spamming shitlords like any real site admin does. We'd have bans up the fucking ass for all these nukid wannabe loser underage idiots trying to make 4chan into reddit/tumblr/etc.

4chan as it is, is pure, 100% cancer. At least back in the old days it was only 92% cancer or so.
