cool, I was thinking to myself a cool experiment might be to pay for some server anonymously somewhere far away and install software like this on it and then set it and forget it with no moderation or anything, maybe spam some links to it on /b/ or something to start, then ignore it, and then look at it again 6 months later and see what is going on on it

I think your use-case is 100% covered by YAML. But I think that YAML, in the process of trying to be a superset of JSON, has kind of denied it the push in adoption you saw from, say, XML to JSON. Joe Programmer still has to implement the parser ahead of the deadline, and JSON is just easier to implement and is left to background.

So I agree - use YAML myself when write stuff big enough for config files - but with APIs I use in life it's still JSON most of the time.

I disagree. It all depends on how the website tries to attract new users.

Finnish imageboard is at its high these days in terms of popularity (though maybe not in quality) for example. The user peak was 9 months ago with 4 million active monthly users. 4 times what it was 10 years ago.

That said ylilauta has put a lot of new shit on the board. One that was mentioned was the glorified this or not this counters. Then they implemented very mobile friendly UI. Porn and sexual material got banned as well and put behind gold accounts.

Though the site currently has problems with money, thats why they paywalled porn. Its way too popular site for what it gains from ads.

How well (or poorly) is this ASCII art rendered in your browser of choice? Pic-related is how it looks for me, and it doesn't look like how it was intended. I'm wondering how the rest of you fare.

Japanese ASCII art has a specified font and font size.

Check if the font size is set to "16". If not, change it.

Change "Standard font" to [MS PGothic]

When captured
1. The viewing environment is not suitable.
Font size is "16"
Change "Standard font" to [MS PGothic]

2. The person who made this ASCII art is bad and out of step.

Font size 16+MSP Gothic
If you do not create ASCII art in this environment, it will always be out of place. On top of that, if you're not good at it, it'll definitely go wrong lol

I don't think Google has searchable archives like >>44655839 said. Many dead imageboards must be simply completely lost. In fact it's really strange that there seems to be no archive for random imageboards, perhaps someone should start one. But if the users themselves don't care about it, there's not much that people outside can do. I know some imageboards have archives, and many of the slower one still have active content for years ago, so I get why it's not a priority, but even then it's a bit sad.

These archives aren't owned by 4chan, and once a thread is there it isn't normally deleted.

Up until a while ago perceptual hashing was the obvious solution but some asshat proved you can reverse certain implementations with AI + GANS so now you're effectively hosting that shit if you use it unless you really know what you're doing and can somehow prevent the reversing.
The other option involves giving your personal information to Cloudflare and being on call for the US police even if you're not hosted in the US and just want to get rid of all the shit while following your country's laws.
A third one I can think of is requiring JS to auth posters and keeping anonymized profiling data to permaban abusive networks like residential vpns. Totally doable but kind of a pain due to legislation. (but fraud prevention is one of the major exceptions to GDPR and similar directives)

Well strictly speaking there's nothing stopping someone from doing it. It's just a ton of work that most people aren't going to put in to categorize risky users and block suspect automated behaviors while still keeping the data secure and anonymous enough to be legally compliant.
The issues with perceptual hashing is also a bit fuzzy legally since it's just a proof of concept to reverse it through AI, all you're storing is a hash and Microsoft PhotoDNA, Reddit among others still use it. The bigger issue is really that you're going to have to build-up a database of hashes because the existing ones only serve large legal entities to prevent their DB being leaked to potential attackers.
For most sites just blocking regular image hashes from being uploaded, blocking known TOR and vpns and having enough jannies to clean it up would probably be enough. Failing that geoblocking the countries where the botfarms and shady clickfarm-type work tend to be located (third-world) will probably work.

it still sucks, site owners shouldn't be held responsible for what random users upload, as long as reasonable timeframes to janny/moderate are followed. a one man show should be able to visit his site once a day for example and clean up any illegal material

I ran my own forum like 15 years ago and I was the only moderator and only admin, sometimes I was on twice a day to moderate, sometimes once every few days.... that is reasonable

That's more or less the law I think. I'm not actually certain how long the window is by the law. They were talking about 24 hours but it doesn't seem to have gone through in the US and the EU mostly seem to be targeting the large social media networks with more than 2 mil users.
Looking over the Cloudflare rules now it seems they don't require your personal info and leave the law questions for you to deal with but you do need to apply for access to the database from the agency responsible for it and they do get reports sent when you match an image. Not a lawyer and haven't read their terms either so there might be some legal req involved there.
Of course you could just disallow image posting altogether and leave it for offsite hosts to deal with.

the anti-adblock thing has been removed by the site admin (because the owners forced him to put targeted ads and other spy shit). He pretty much did some simple things, some people started making separate scripts to block his antiadblock.

the article in English

A super-popular Finnish website almost entirely paid for - Users outraged: "Thank you and goodbye"
Ylilauta, which is particularly popular with young users, is hiding more and more content behind a paywall.

Ylilauta, a popular discussion platform, is trying to attract more paid users with a new approach.

With the reform, almost all threads are locked behind a gold account.

Ylilauta reaches up to almost 2.5 million users per month. According to the website, a large proportion of them are Finnish-speaking. Some services are already familiar under the gold membership, which costs €6.9 a month.

Many users have asked the forum where the active and fresh threads have disappeared to. Indeed, many discussions have been clouded, and without paying a fee you cannot view the content. Users have wondered whether this is a passing phase or a purposeful money-making scheme.

The administrator, known as Sopsy, says in the thread that the situation has been considered and will not change.

- This time it's here to stay, and I can't help it. I'll follow orders to raise immediate income by any means necessary, and I don't have the clout in the company to fight back.

Many users have also speculated about a change of ownership of the forum and its closure altogether.

With the new policy, the old discussion threads will only be visible to paid users. The expiry date will be 24 hours at the strictest.


From what we have read, users are unhappy with the changes. Many have even said they will stop using the service.

- Thank you and goodbye, writes one user.

- The active thread is over 24 hours old and blurred, writes another.

Many are also worried about the situation if their membership is paid for well into the future. However, according to the administrators' replies, the service is not likely to be closed down, even if changes are made to the content and payment structure.

- As stated in the terms of use, gold accounts will only be lost if the site is closed permanently. And that is certainly not going to happen. So don't worry, nothing will happen and it won't be wasted to buy them. And at least I get a third of them for my own beer fund after taxes and expenses, which is just under a couple of euros per cult, writes Sopsy.

Ylilauta is a so-called photo forum, where the discussion takes place in threads posted in different subsections.

A user writing feedback on the new policy sums up his thoughts.

- Not really, a good reason to close this site and go do something more sensible.

The main board is a platform for anonymous discussion. The site averages about 2.5 million page views per day and 100 000-110 000 active users per day. The site receives tens of thousands of messages every day.

The site is full of discussion from all sides. According to the Ministry of Justice, Ylilauta is the most important hate speech platform in Finland, accounting for 96% of all hate speech messages in Finland.

The discussions contain a lot of excessive trolling and inappropriate content. For example, several threads contain racist and chauvinistic comments.

>> No.44850077

ylilauta used to be the admin and owner of old Finnish imageboard calles northpole.

Nowadays it has worked as a test board for ylilauta software. Right now he is unofficially having the northpole.fi act as a the true imageboard since he is disgusted with shit the owners force him to do. He is essentially just a worker at ylilauta at this point.

Northpole is ylilauta code but without upvotes or downvotes or much of the other bloat in ylilauta. He calls it a minimalistic board

Thanks for the info, it's interesting.
I looked up the anti adblock stuff, and while I don't know how it works, I read about it being removed. I didn't have the Finnish filters enabled anyway, but if I enable them, the ads disappear.
>>44850054
So Sopsy is basically responsible for managing the site on behalf of the company that actually owns it, but the owners make the big decisions?
So from what I understand, there are 2 big changes:
>threads which are over 24h old are gold only even if it's still active
>the kakolog is gold only
This is a pretty risky move, is there any chance of this working out? Do people get gold accounts? The first one could be circumvented but it encourages low-quality thread, and hiroyuki already tried the second one. External archives could become a thing, though I suspect that may be illegal in the EU (like everything else, though Finland seems more reasonable than other EU countries).

>> No.44850293

>>44850211
Sopsy apparently sold his majority share of lautamedia (=ylilauta) for 1000€. He regrets it now but also says the the investors brought profitable ads to the site. Apparently the site owners are all in the Malta online gamling business (Ylilauta has HQ in Malta, the online casino mecca of the EU)
the changes are
>targeted ads, userdata is used in adversating like in the big tech
>24h old threads are blurred if you dont have gold accounts
some other changed before this that also caused anger
>Sopsy, after strict no pornography rule on ylilauta made an porn board for gold accounts
>user XP system. You get less captcha, free gold accounts etc. the more you level by posting
the porn board thing did work out. People for some reason pay for porn.
As of now. Sopsy writes that gold accounts have gone up since the intrusive ads and the blurred threads, but he also insists that this on long term cannot hold and the shareholders will have to face it.
Ylilauta is strictly against any other site using the sites data. I doubt anyone would bother with it.

>> No.44850327

>>44850293
and I note. There is no archives in ylilauta. Ylilauta doesnt have the same style like 4chan has and threads dont get deleted after ten pages. They stay there for longer, sometimes it was even for years.

Owners of the site want Sopsy to make changes that will increase profit (the site is already very profitable after some changes but they ask for more). So Sopsy has slowly but steadily decreased the time threads stay up before they get locked and later deleted.

Now they changed it to 24 hours which is very controversial.

>> No.44850339

>>targeted ads, userdata is used in adversating like in the big tech
This happens on basically all websites in 2k23.
Separating porn boards is a good idea, it solves a lot of problems and if you can charge extra for it, it's even smarter.
But requiring subscriptions in such an intrusive manner is not something I believe would work. SNS sites have raised this idea of requiring payment for using the site properly since Elon Musk started talking about it, but I honestly don't think it would work in 2k23.

>There is no archives in ylilauta. Ylilauta doesnt have the same style like 4chan has and threads dont get deleted after ten pages. They stay there for longer, sometimes it was even for years.
I see, I thought it had a separate part like on 5ch that preserves old threads. But then when threads do get locked and later deleted, is there no way to browse them anymore? That would be a shame. Or is it more like Reddit then, where all threads just stay there even when they are locked?
I checked out the thread, it seems he can't actually create a competitor site, but it's still very based of him to try to make improvement

>> No.44850686

>>44850620
ylilauta previously marketed the site as a privacy oriented site. Sopsy got rid of google and made his own ad services and everything. User data was not sold or used by third parties. Since the changes, the slogans about data safety have been removed.
I am not sure how the algorithm works, but thread either gets locked after 1000 posts or after it has been inactive for sometime. Then it gets deleted sometime afterwards, it depends on the activity of the board so smaller boards have very old threads up still. At that point its just about the amount of data the site wants to hold.
As said, ylilauta doesnt have archive per se. Threads stay up for sometime, way longer than in 4chan but then get deleted.
There is one exception though, if the threads gets to "eeppinen" (land where epic threads go), meaning admins chose to archive the thread becuase it was memorable or something. Here

It looks like it still says it's privacy-oriented. Now I understand why this upsets people. But since it looks like every 2nd person in Finland uses the site, it may have reached a critical mass where they are free to do whatever they want.

So what he did was that he had the domain names in the same server hosting site account (or however this works) as ylilauta and therefore the owners of Lauta Media are now saying to him that he donated all the domains to the company.
