is there a federated platform similar to 4chan ie. topic boards with ephemeral linear message threads? i dunno how else to describe it but I like the 4chan format, it’s just got the worst people in the world on there (which I figure could be mitigated by the federated server type thing)
IIRC, someone was talking about their p2p text only 4chan clone recently. I forget what it was called though.
talking about seedit? also p2p has too many issues for a social platform
What problems?
needing to store everything on and transmit everything from user devices is kind of crazy for a social media. fine for messaging and file sharing, but social media works better when there’s a place for the content to actually be stored and accessed from (preferably multiple communicative places!)
Well, plebbit being text-only means exactly that any media content is being stored remotely on CDNs
I think I was thinking of plebchan. From what I can tell, it’s based off plebbit, which looks to be the same stack that seedit uses.
I’ll check it out but based on the name im guessing it’ll be dogshit
Its like bittorrent for social media.
yeah i just mean the name “plebchan” doesnt inspire a lot of confidence
