enjoy your ayyymd jewtel and jewefi proprietary botnet

i use AIX, thot

>>61104562
In this proprietary world there must be done some exceptions.
Anyways, site is not runing on my computer, but rather rendered by browser, which is not proprietary.

Stallman did not invent free software
Linux kernel is not superior
Seeing source code and being able to modify it without license struggles does not ensure user's control
Freedesktop Linux OS sucks for desktop use
GPL is manifesto, not a software license
C isn't a good language

u mad? post another screenfetch thread or brag about preview in file picker

he posts about freedom on a proprietary messageboard that lets google track you through reCAPTCHA

>>61104608
depending on what you have enabled that may be less true

reminder that binaries are not free software and JIT compilation is the only way to ensure freedom

4chan is a service, not software.

nigger, please

>>61105393
4chan is still a service, what it runs is irrelevant.

>>61105402
Nobody is relevant besides yourself, then. What's the point of this thread.

>>61105423
>Nobody is relevant besides yourself, then
I am unsure how you deduce that from my post.

>>61105429
4chan is an user of proprietary garbage named yotsuba.

>>61105460
Sure, this is however irrelevant. 4chan is still a service and not a software.

>>61105470
It's no service without a software. Deal with it.

>>61105496
How is this relevant?

>>61105513
Leave this filthy board.

You're a retard.
If Windows and Mac users weren't welcome here, they'd be against the rules.
Do you have the authority to edit the rules? No? Then you don't have the authority to say who's welcome here.
I'll stay here as long as I want. What the people here think of me and why is irrelevant, because they have no power. In fact, I hope my insistence on staying here makes them suffer.

>>61105538
>Leave this filthy board.
I do want to do it sometime but not due to the license of the backend. Due to the license of the js, the fact that it needs google bullshit js to post without paying and due to the fact that it bans tor.

>https://github.com/MitsubaBBS/Mitsuba
Why do you link this specific foss software from the many that exist? It's not a service by itself and the software that nntpchan uses is much better for example.

>>61105025
>>61105402
This claim itself is irrelevant. 4chan is a service, not software, but no one said anything to the contrary. We ARE talking about what it runs, so what it runs IS relevant.

>>61104572
Quick question
Is Core duo/Centrino still botnet?

>>61105580
People claim that 4chan is non-free which is false as it is a fucking service, they do not talk about what it runs.

>We ARE talking about what it runs, so what it runs IS relevant.
You and only you do. In any case, the software which it runs is not necessarily non-free.

>>61105598
Yes

>>61105601
>People claim that 4chan is non-free
This is irrelevant because whatever people you're talking about are not making this claim in this thread. The claim is that "users of proprietary garbage (wintoddlers/mactoddlers) are NOT welcome on this board." No one cares whether 4chan ITSELF is nonfree. The issue is whether or not it RUNS on anything nonfree. (See >>61104562 -- does it say "the board itself IS nonfree?" No, it says "the board itself USES...") The reason this is an issue is because if the board itself USES proprietary software, then it is a "user of proprietary garbage" and is "NOT welcome on [itself]."

>Linking Mitsuba
>Not using the superior meguca forum software

Mistuba is abandonware.

https://github.com/vichan-devel/vichan (abadoned)
https://github.com/lainchan/lainchan (sees development)
https://github.com/fallenPineapple/NPFchan (also sees development, installation procedure is strange though)
https://github.com/bakape/meguca (Professional issue tracker, sees development, very stable, very good codebase)

Also lynxchan

There's also Infinity Next, but it's dead.

Someone really should write a full-featured, secure, modern imageboard software. I think Meguca will fill that need.

>>61105699
You are correct, I was confused with this thread >>61101632

In any case, there is no proof that the software that 4chan uses is non-free.

Make your own open source chan and ban whoever with a proprietary user-agent.

>NNTPchan
Sure, if you want decentralization. What I've linked offers far more features overall.

>>61105864
Decentralisation and a standard NNTP interface are the most important features. In fact if it has NNTP you can just use your favourite newsreader/mail client instead of being stuck with the web interface.

i didn't realize that thread was a thing

*shrug*

>>61106100
>*shrug*
xD
I am still correct however, nobody here claimed that they have the binary of the backend without its source.

Nothing to stop Linux having spyware built in and just having the OS hide it from view

If you want security make your own OS

>>61106121
>Nothing to stop Linux having spyware built in
Except that the source would be visible.

Windows 10 is also a service so cuck my cock freetard GNUmale faggots.

>>61105546
Well fuck you then.
You know, it's bad enough to be a proprietary brainlet, it really is, I promise.
You really don't have to go the extra mile and also be a fucking dick.

No

>cuck my cock
Ok, where is your wife?

>>61105025
This. It would be stupid to consider dropping services like Google, Amazon, Microsoft online stuff, Amazon, Paypal and all other online stuff. They're all just services.

>>61106219
>No
Not him but it is though
In fact that's what's wrong with it
Windows 10 tries to decide what you get to have on your computer and how private it gets to be, and to justify this it gives you frequent personalized updates
The idea is of course that if your OS is software that you've bought, it's yours, and they don't want that because then you can kick them out, but if it's a service you're paying for, it's still theirs, so they can still control it "for you"
Truly disgusting

Isn't 4chan proprietary?

but why are like 50% of the threads are either about mactoddlers shilling iphone or winshits who need new gaymen hardware?
Also the other 49% are just neckbeards posting little girls and talking about irrelevant ricing shit.
just to be clear here: RICING IS NOT TECHNOLOGY. ANIME AINT NO TECHNOLOGY EITHER.

Sometimes there is a technology thread
