The idea of a federated Chan site is retarded since the only benefit of federation is using the same account across instance and chan sites don't have accounts.

This - the only possible person who would ever bother with ownership is some no life person with no other opportunities. And such people can't even make a functional website. Hence why moot was the high functioning adult who coded the website and left it in the hands of a seedy Japanese business tycoon and handled by a gaggle of burnt out nerds who couldn't even care to update the fucking database since 2014.
The second best alt chan is lain chan and they purposely limited a user's posts to a few a day so there's less work to do.

There's people who do some deplorable things for meager gains, so it says a lot that nobody can squeeze out a profit from an image board.
