isn't it pretty tech intensive to host a moderately popular imageboard?
>>
It depends on the traffic you can just use a random vps if its like 20 ppl

Not remotely. Even 4chan costs well under 10k a month to run.
>>

so no altchan in existence?

no, not at all. and altchans aren't popular except maybe the one that hacked 4chan

Famous hacker known as soijak
>>
>>107934613
how much would you guess they make from ads and the pass? i feel like 10k is a lot for what 4chan actually does, but i'm not exactly an expert
>>
>>107934708
There was a time before new zealand when dubs were popular but since then the most popular altchans by orders of magnitude are archives and proxies for 4chan itself. I think probably the biggest en board otherwise is lainchan, which is pretty pathetic and has almost completely migrated to discord.
>>
>>107934593
No? It can sometimes be as cheap as like a hundred bucks a year.
>>
>>107934708
>and altchans aren't popular except maybe the one that hacked 4chan
sharty didn't even hack 4chan, it was just one guy that found an obvious and preventable vulnerability and blamed it on the sharty specifically just so he could talk about it somewhere with people. They actually ended up banning him because they fucking hate anime and he kept posting it.
>>
>>107934725
I'd wager there are at least like 3 altchans between lainchan and 'party (in terms of pph). 8kun at least I think. Libpol too I think but that's probably cheating.
>>
>>107934593
None of them are anywhere near "popular."
>>
>>107934593
Some of them are managed by networks.
>>
>>107934721
Who cares, this site is owned by one of the big anime figure manufacturers. Buy more figures.
>>
>>107934593
No. You could easily run a moderately sized imageboard on an n100 mini pc that before the recent price hikes you could get for at most 100 bucks. With a power draw of ~15W something like 20 bucks a year would suffice. The real kicker is just the connection and ip. If you're lucky you got a gigabit uplink at home, that might actually be sufficient already. Otherwise you'd need to rent a server in a Datacenter, I'd guess 15-20 bucks a month would be sufficient though.

You can host 99% of imageboards in your basement

The real problem is that all of the world's intelligence agencies will start MASS DUMPING 'p onto your board the first picosecond it comes online

How are you supposed to deal with this ever, in any situation, logistically speaking?
>>
I used to love sharti but when I got permad and got a little break from it I realised an avearge soiteen have a retarded belief system, although only 2 boards there are alive. And this is the biggest altchan there is. 4kek won ev&oe I hate jannies but I must admit it
>>
>>107934593
You can easily do it for 2-5 USD per month using third party hosting.
Web hosting is only expensive for retards that can't figure out basic shit.
>>
>>107935326
Its just kiwifarms with extra moderation now
>>
Domain names are cheap, but not usually free.
Server costs are affordable if you have a job that uses the skills you need to run an imageboard.
Many imageboards, I believe, are even run by people who work for companies that offer servers, and they just use a free one they get from work. The others are run by the CIA obviously.
>>
>>107935286
Eh I know an altchan that has 10 threads of 'p on its catalog for weeks, the bigger threats to the site is the owner forgetting to renew the domain and being too lazy to renew the ssl cert
>>
Why not host on an instance instead?
>>
they're pretty cheap

wait a minute, captain gem was banned? first time i hear that lol

I sometimes miss Sharty myself. I never took anything posted there that seriously to begin with. Ironically, despite their endless (justified) hatred for trooncord, it feels like a big edgy Discord server. Most of them aren't even interested in being Anonymous, since they often group jerkoff in the IRC. There's also a of namefags there. It's good for a laugh, better than 4chan. 4chan mostly makes me chuckle, but I also come here for actual news and help. Main reason it's the biggest alt-chan is probably because it's a direct splinter of 4chan.
>>
biggest costs is bandwidth. Assuming 4chan serves 75 TB of data per day and paying $0.002 per GB, thats $150 or $1800 per month. The CIA can easily afford that. altchans are a fraction of the cost

Sad if true, I remember their IRC was still active around 2015, I know some of the users from there are on the Fediverse (I just remembered the nicknames), but of I wouldn't expect the userbase to migrate on Discord. Present day, present time, yada yada

When moot made 4chan, it was a period of time where any one of the average 16-20 year olds on the internet could easily figure out the steps necessarily to host a website and write or adapt some basic scripts and html to make it function.

Someone like YOU could never do it. Average IQ has fallen by double digits by the time of your generation, you simply lack the capacity to even learn how. It's completely beyond you.

Worse part about them is glowies and sharties (Who are the same people) WILL try to spam 'p on your site and then WILL report it immediately to Cloudflare within .001 seconds so you can't even delete or moderate it. This has been an endemic problem with every altchan since the hack: For some reason, söyteens are very, veerrrrryyyy interested in making sure every single altchan gets raided by feds except their own.

Baritone also known as 'tone or his tripcode "baritone!7ZeGT.ZTxY" was a namefag who was easily identified by his sexual attraction to dinosaurs and self inserting as them.[1] He is from Florida.[2] He was a former Basedcraft moderator during the Kuz era and was extremely resentful both towards Basedcraft, New Basedcraft, and Basedworld.[3]
Minecraft server

He was appointed as a moderator by DOLL on the old Basedcraft Minecraft server but later resigned due to disagreements with other moderators. He claims the it was due to his refusal to dox himself in order to become a janny on the Sharty.

Later on in 2025 Baritone would frequently be seen saging Gold's threads shilling his minecraft server Basedworld. This would create tension between the two and hinder the player growth of Basedworld. For some reason he hates Basedworld due to Gold's incompetence yet loves to sabotage the server at the same time.

Due to the aforementioned clitty leakages, he has been banned. Nevermind, he's back.

Some Facts

Xe spent a lot of time whining on the IRC
Xe thought xis dinosaur porn is somehow any different or better than furry porn (its literally the same thing geg)
Xe didn't like poodles.
Xe was a MASSIVE clitty leaker
Xe loved spamming comment sections on the 'ru
>>
>>Bla bla bla 'p posted bla bla

Just make an altchan that is text and only allowing remotely hosted pics.

No bandwidth, issues, no safety issues, cost nothing to run, can allow total free speech.
