Recently I started visiting /lgbt/ again, and the experience made me appreciate leftypols slower posting. Imageboards are just not made for large userbase, it turns into a cacophony. For all the reddits faults, upvote system or some other way of ordering and managing posts is needed when the site is being flooded by thousands.
Still, would appreciate if we could up our average active IP count to around 100.

Many have never used an imageboard in their lives. We need to grow constantly or we'll die. Further, we can't depend on anyone. It needs to be decentralized and we need to encourage others here to shill leftypol in other spaces.

This website has been bleeding numbers since like 2022. I quit last year because I grew really tired of the moderation, having received several arbitrary bans. I don't come here a lot anymore but I still enjoy reading effortposts and making them as well from time to time, because I know at least a couple people will appreciate them.

The activity is about what you'd expect. Lowering over the holidays and has been picking up again.

>>29952>>29964The site's user count, (if I remember correctly), only displayed ip count of the day and week.
Obviously still down, just that you're looking at the wrong measurements to compare the old site's success.
>I grew really tired of the moderation, having received several arbitrary bans.Yeah that's annoying.
Got banned multiple times for range ban stuff, and had to either do a weird reset of my router so the mods see the ban as the false positive it was, or ask on the element.io chat.
Both posting on /meta/ no matter than ban; and bans being done through inconvenient amount of time, (long enough to stop raids but short enough for regular users who're not interested in going through the process of getting unbanned) – should both be adopted.
>>29960Maybe they should try a system of being given a random id for when you enter a thread, that way you can filter out annoying posts, (with tor being 00000000).
Because otherwise mods have to be more active to do proper moderation, since otherwise they let stuff slip depending on how motivated they are to do what is volunteer work, (something that can be done by more mods I guess).
I'd suggest technical ideas, but I'm supposed to develop that stuff, and I'm still struggling to find a job so I have no time ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Still, a flair to hide porn threads would be nice.
I love my porn –
you WILL post in my femboydom – but some people just don't want to see it.
>>30032The sfw is a really underwhelming tool.
It's because of it that you have to spoil the images of the porn thread.
Surprisingly, getchan, which alot of people here hate since of their allowance of loli and stuff, hide the threads behind a mature toggle.
Of course it leads to the site using javascript, but still would be nice to have a feature like that here.
