Not sure if it’s just on my end but ponepaste on mobile is a bit fucky in portrait orientation. the left margin pushes text off the screen to the right. Can’t pinch zoom to view the text.landscape orientation is fine.
>>42623370The only place I see that happening is with the tags in the archive/user pastes view. Is that what you're referring to?
>>42623391It either fixed itself or whoever fixed it was really fast, but my issue was on greens themselves. I do see what you’re talking about on the user pastes, though.
>>42623407>>42623391Nevermind, I was looking at the wrong green.https://ponepaste.org/7456This is where I’m seeing the issue and it’s similar to the user pastes issue where it cuts off, unable to zoom in and drag over to the cut off text.

>>42625852No rules against edits + forced anon would be my guess. And speaking to those bastions of multiculturalism, if you're gonna post your NovelAI racebait to the boorus, would it kill you to tag it properly?
>>42626036>would it kill you to tag it properlyYes. The point isn't to archive it, the point is to expose the unwilling to it, tagging it properly ruins that.
>>42625852Because they know boxless is too busy gooning to ssbbw scolipedes and deleting humanizations to care about low effort troll edits.

Thanks a ton to the anon who just donated $1500 to PonePaste/Twibooru's Ko-Fi. The funds will be allocated as you asked. I don't know if picrel was intentional or not, but kek

>>42628229Derpi's sole advantage is having a larger army of autists at its disposal to do all the scut work of tagging every single image according to the momentary whims of the admins.

>>42629286Enjoy missing a third of your content, i guess?
>>42629290>>All the content is imported from derpi
>>42628398Derpi's advantage is having an actual userbase that tags and rates things. Altboorus have the benefits of different moderation, allowing content derpi decided later in life to nuke, and ALLEGEDLY being an ARCHIVE OF ART (Disputed, see: actions performed by altboorus)You could handwave it with "durr who cares about ratings anyway fucking normalfags" but not having ratings available makes everything a disorganized mess where you can't discern things like crowdsourced "highest quality art" in a search.Twibooru as an example has maybe 5 regular rating users, half of which seem dedicated to downvoting every fat picture that gets imported while also upvoting >anthro. If you're trying to look for a collection of really good art for something, you genuinely have to go to derpi so you can use the score filter, because on twi all you'll get, after minutes of lowering the "score:gte" value repeatedly, is the history of featured images.
>>42629318>Alt booru mods>GoodThe only one that this applies to is ponerpics.

>1000 year bans for adding ponies to imagesDo altboorus have principles beyond "we allow arytranne and swastikas" anymore? I don't even want to defend the banned user because he's an autistic faggot, but this isn't what anyone signed up for when we yes, we, as a collective, you faggots decided to bail on derpi for greener pastures.

Bump. It would be nice if the altboorus would scrape new tags from Derpibooru occasionally. I try to tag stuff under half an hour old as well as I can, but a longer wait or pulling newer additions occasionally would go a long way.
>>42638627But that would introduce the Derpi bias in tags as well. For example, calling all non-con art "grimdark".
>>42638245>a private serverhttps://ponybooru.org/pages/contact
>>42639391Was I there? No? Then it's private. You know full well what I mean, stop being disingenuous.
>>42639401Stop acting like a w*man.
Is it just me or does the “toggle line numbers” button not do anything on ponepaste?
>>42639410Not just you. Almost guarantee I broke it when I made clickable line numbers a thing. I'll have a look in a bit...
>>42639410>>42639439Fixed now. Also, the PonePaste server is horrifically out of date, so it may go down for a few minutes in a bit while I update it.
>>42639409Eat shit. It's well-established netiquette to keep chat logs private between the members of the chatroom at the time. Posting it on a public place like a forum (or this board) just to "own" someone from the chat is extremely furryish behavior (since furry = drama and hence it's also Derpi-ish behavior).
>>42639513>well-established netiquette>discord is soon to be a decade old and other "chatrooms" that have serverside logging = allow scrolling up to see chat you weren't online to witness are even olderSure, grandpa, whatever you say, let's get you to bed.

>>42639517>Zoomer lingo Concession accepted.
>>42639513dude you can literally click on the link to the Discord server and scroll up and read it for yourself, Discord is not ephemeral unlike MSN or whatever you're used to

>>42639914>Yes it does.At that point it's no longer a 'thing is worn' but 'thing is enveloped'.In a technical sense, yes, it is, but it's a completely different target with some severe overlap in some areas.

>>42639922>save that shit for the cyborg-clankers.Of which we seem to have a rather large share.
>>42639874>Full-body identical-to-original encasementSpeaking of that, "masking" probably should lose the "mask" implication, because it's not being used in a normal people sense (putting on a mask), it's being used in fetish sense, and often does not involve a separate mask.>>42639922>a 'thing is worn' but 'thing is enveloped'>ed?Are you implying that Florb is the object of wearing?

>>42644347Define 'generic'.might be time for an updated altbooru list site.
>>42644367Probably, but I thought it'd enough to visit one instead of all 4 of them. There is something on one, which isn't on the other one?
>>42644404Yes, the largest concentration of content unavailable elsewhere is on Twibooru.
>>42644406Thx! That's what I wanted to know.
>>42644422For the love of God, just don't turn on the comments.Calling it "Chudbooru" is an understatement. Also filled with hypocrites who wank to the most degenerate shit but actually unironically talk about homosexuality (for example) being "sinful".I'm convinced it's a small group of just a couple people with severe cognitive dissonance, but it still makes the comment section pretty much unreadable.
>>42644406More than on Ponerpics? How?
>>42644721Use case for the comment section?
>>42644721Use case for looking for things to be angry at?
>>42644731Use case for use cases?
>>42644736Turning on the comments isn't "looking for things to be angry at" though, because most people expect to find likeminded individuals simply sharing their thoughts, not a small collective of autists seething that people don't share their fetishes (and then go on to talk about how blob Twilight is the hottest thing they saw in another image).It's one thing to not be a pro-woke flag-waving Derpitard, but Twibooru takes it to a whole other self-justifying level.
>>42644743>Everyone must be the same small group because i said so!???Are you the guy that got his ass blown out over someone pointing out that an OC creator fit a stereotype to a T and laughing about it? Same logic, same retarded assumption.
>>42644743> a small collective of autists seething that people don't share their fetishes (and then go on to talk about how blob Twilight is the hottest thing they saw in another image).Are we talking about Twibooru or /mlp/ here?
>>42644749>Are youI never posted there. I just turned on the comments and quickly turned them off again.
>>42644751Use case for ignoring the rest of the post?
>>42644754How can I talk about things I know nothing about? I mean, that might be your MO but it's not mine.
>>42644758Use case for hypocrisy?
>>42644758>How can I talk about things I know nothing about?That's like what literally everyone does on 4chan.
>>42644749>Everyone must be the same small group because i said so!Interesting statistics: There are (roughly) 500 registered users who have made at least one comment, 100 who have made at least ten, 40 who have made at least fifty, 20 who have made at least one hundred, five who have made at least five hundred, three who have made at least one thousand, and a single guy who has made at least 2500 comments (over 10% of the total comments on the site.)So I suppose it is reasonable to say that a decent chunk of the site's comments are made by the same people.
>>42644854>20 who have made at least one hundredHuh. The world is so small.
>>42644854Also are you sure these stats are even correct? The total number of comments on the site has been stuck at 10k for like a year maybe already?https://twibooru.org/statsAnd the number of uploads on my profile's page hasn't been updated in a while too, even though I've been posting stuff it stays the same. The number of comments I made is incorrect too.
>>42644881I'm absolutely certain. The stats on the site itself are generated differently, and yes, the comment count has been incorrect for awhile. My numbers are straight from the database.Honestly, the profile page stats shouldn't even exist, it serves no purpose on an anonymous-only site.

Derpi new low: if you post anonymously then you get a "This comment is pending approval from a staff member."
>>42664901They've had antispam filter if you post a link without an account for a while now. Same as others.Don't be retarded.

>>42665387Looks fine from here, may have been transient?
>>42665679Still failing on my end. Tried purging cache and changing DNS, no change.
>>42665718What is the exact error you are getting?
>>42665745Unknown host. Just tried purging my certs to see if it's the old FF issue, but no luck.
>>42665745Tried swapping DNS again, as I forgot to reset my router like a dumbass. It is working, but it looks like it's not getting through Quad9 DNS.
>>42665718Everything looks good in terms of global DNS propagation on my end. Domain's not expired or anything. What country are you in, out of curiosity?Also, unrelated: Just got an interesting scam at the PonePaste admin email. Dude emailed me saying he "couldn't access the site due to the cookie banner", and then when I said I had no cookie banner, he sent me a "screenshot" that was actually a link to a virus. Never seen that one before.
>>42665679And there's the confirmation. Quad9 is actively blocking foalfetch.
>>42665847Can confirm nslookup foalfetch.net 9.9.9.9 returns Non-existent domain for me too.
>>42665847Huh, that's interesting - I actually use Quad9 myself, specifically 9.9.9.10, which doesn't do any blocking. It looks like FoalFetch is blocked on 9.9.9.9: https://quad9.net/result/?url=foalfetch.net#domain-testerI'll contact them via the "false positive" report form.
>>42665861Good luck, I just tried. Said something went wrong and to contact via e-mail.
>>42665870I seem to have been successful in submitting a removal request, we'll see if they get back to me.
I wonder who could have added foalfetch to the malicious sites list.

>>42665853Sounds like furfag tactics. Or basedteens.
>>42665949Honestly, these companies need to learn that their policies make them VERY susceptible to having legitimate shit blocked by people with a chip on their shoulder.
>>42665858Usecase for filtered DNS services?

>>42638627So, any more thoughts on this? Even a bulk tagging interface would go a long way, like the ability to add one tag to a group of images narrowed down somehow. I want to improve the tags, but I don't want to manually put the same tag on hundreds of uploads across three other boorus. Is my only option here using the API and thus, realistically, never getting around to it?

How many stuff there are still laying around the internets unuploaded on the boorus? There's an artist I liked that has/had a bunch of stuff nobody ever uploaded, and I know most of the shit from Draw Thread never gets uploaded either. That one autist from derpi mass uploading soarindash probably also sits on deviantart for hours looking for unuploaded art.Shall we mass upload Draw Thread's /d/s at least?

>>42695459Pretty much still going.
>>42696050Nah it's stopped, there was 15-20 thread spam in a span of a few minutes. All got deleted pretty fast, desu did not even archive them. The regular slidethread posting filled the catalog back up.
>>42696193There are two kinds of sliding. Slides by spam, and slides by someone artificially bumping a lot of threads to get others off the board. I believe this one was a combination of both.

Is Ponepaste down?
FLOOOOOOOOOORB
>>42704469It expired, someone failed to pay for it!FloorB!!!!!
>>42703679>Due to ongoing concerns about online safetyNobody is concerned, it's just the British government trying to exert control and silence dissent. They don't give one single shit about any child whatsoever.
>>42704609hell it's actually making things more dangerous for children, posting your information online the way the Brits are pushing it just makes it really easy to steal. There's already been hints of a market for pedos wanting to buy children's info from hackers as a direct result of all this. It's genuinely fucking wild how just a decade ago we went from>the safest thing your kids can do is not put any info onlineto>the safest thing your kids can do is put all their information online for government useand people ate it right up.
Yep, Ponepaste is down.
>can't reread wish fulfillment greens during my post-anni depressionFloorb pls
Yep, looks like PonePaste's domain is expired. I don't own the domain or have access to it - the original PonePasteAnon does. I've messaged him about it. If you can't live without poners for a few hours: http://159.100.250.158/
>>42704998Bless ya, floorb
If he can't renew it or doesn't respond, is it truly the end of Ponepaste?
>>42704998Thanks for the heads up.
>>42705833We last talked like 3 days ago, ironically about transferring the domain to me. It'll be alright.
>>42705984If that does transpire, would it make PonePaste entirely yours?
>>42704998>I don't own the domain or have access to itMaybe it's time to change that.
>>42705984>ironically about transferring the domain to me. It'll be alright.based
I actually didn't know the original ponepaste guy gave up the site to someone else, I came to this thread purely to know why Ponepaste is down. Why'd he give it up if you guys don't mind me asking?
>>42706521He (Aftercase) have not not "gave it up", he handed it over to FloorB.What I don't get is why he nuked a few of the greens he was writing.
>>42706583>spoilerDid anypony save them?
>>42706790The earliest ponepaste dump contains it (I don't remember if that's "up to date" to the last post of the green or not), but that's an unordered mess.It's on desu as the last resort.
>>42707021Hmm, I wonder what would he and Floorb do if someone reuploaded them.
>>42707065Probably nothing.
>>42704998The domain has been renewed now, please be patient as we wait for it to propagate.

Strange issue on poepaste, see pic. Tags dont wrap around. Latest chrome.https://ponepaste.org/10809
I'm having a bit of a moral quandaryI'm having increasing financial issues for various reasons and need to cut back expenses Pony.tube is costing over $100 a month (after generous donations) and I don't have the time to properly manage it and I'm very concerned with it running out of storage it could take quite a bit to upgrade (and result in increased monthly fees)That, plus I feel like I no longer have adequate time/energy to put into keeping it running properly (it badly needs software updates), I was hoping to find someone trustworthy with time willing to help with sys admin duties but haven't yet I don't want to ever kill it, but it may be time to more actively seek help to keep the site alive Even if a pile of cash dropped on me tomorrow I don't have the time to get it moved to a new host properly by myself Sorry for the blog postTo a lesser extent same thing applies to pone.social except it's not as much of a financial burden, but I also need sys admin help there
>>42708384^:(
>>42709215He found someone.t. knower
>>42710023Should we be worried?

>>42710143What did they do?
>>42710066>buzzwordSo that's a yes.
>>42708384Thanks for keeping the sites and other poni avenues going for so long, anon. Get well soon.>costPT is like $200 currently, right? If need be, I technically could cover that monthly for a couple years even if I get fired tomorrow, but obviously I'd rather not be the sole paypig keeping the site alive, you know. Bus factor is a thing.I'll probably increase my donations, does LiberaPay forward entire amount when I pay upfront for a few months, or does it trickle down monthly?>skillst. server janny, not fired yet, more experience with baremetal Linux boxes + onprem k8s than clouds, but every workplace is different I suppose. At least I'd humbly claim I'm not completely retarded.To be honest with you, I do not have experience maintaining services for public audience however, and the "edgier" kind like 4chan or wherever people of raid of the evening came from. This might be important, but I'm not familiar what kind of expertise this requires. From basic curiosity it seems it's just a dedi in OVH US, no CF+Nigerian reverse proxy like Twibooru has, and the site seems... fine?>time/energyHow much are we talking about, say, weekly? Aside from work I usually find some time on weekends to maintain my home >prod, but I don't want to impose and claim I'll do more than I'll be able to.I guess in the beginning more time would have to be invested to get familiar with current infra and issues, research and discuss some plans to resolve them, etc.>trustI'm just an anon, I don't have a portfolio of significant pony sites you might recognize, and I don't feel like showing you my IRL resume and dox is the best way to gain that trust.If I were (You), I'd look into something to share the responsibility of infra changes between 2+ admins, something akin to gitops with PR approvals. I don't mean PonyTube should migrate to K8s, but I would argue this mountain of abstraction can have some benefits in these cases.>legal, DMCA, etc.I'm an ESL so I have no idea how that works being a replaceable apt upgrade guy for a rather legal, clearnet service hosted in foreign country. I would prefer not to have issues/concerns on my mind caused by this.I also need to note I'm not familiar with pseudonymous site hosting, e.g. payments and registration KYC for domains/servers, I obviously don't know how your sites are handled now, but I would assume some sites around here might not have real life information attached to them.>drama, namefagging, moderation policies, etc.I don't want to be involved in this, sounds like too much useless stress.>tfw job application postWell, I just wanted to say I like ponies, have undefined amount of skills and time, but I don't want too much additional stress. If you can't find anyone else, maybe I could be of some part-time help.
>>42710050Only if you're bald.
>>42710836>costIt's about $250 or so monthly, I am getting about $40-$80 monthly in support from generous people on liberapay and patreon so that helps reduce the cost a little I'm actually not sure how liberapay works but if they get your money all at once it should be forwarded all in the next payment cycle >sys adminI do now have a volunteer sys admin who's already done a first step upgrade successfully (yay)He's a regular here and a trustworthy twifag even if overtly gayYeah it is a simple ovh hosted leased dedicated server (not VM)It runs ok but the video transcoding is heavy on a machine without a GPU (for cost savings)>application Let me check with the other guy maybe we could use another set of hoofs if you're willing Try sending an email to admin@pony.tube and if that fails (lol, it actually might fail) then corpulent at brony dot email or even use the contact form on pony.tube
>>42711108What about lower level moderators to handle registration requests and reports? It's looking a bit slow there and something tells me perhaps 2/3 moderators on the list haven't even signed in for 2 or 4 years.

>>42611248New Pony.Tube sysadmin here - just wanna make it clear that I'm helping Twifag, not replacing him or anything.Some good news: Pony.Tube has been updated to the latest version of PeerTube as of tonight. Please let us know here if you run into any issues.

>>42713783Yeah, there's a problem. It's up to date now. How can I occasionally make a remark about it being outdated now?
>>42715918You pivot to complaining about the new layout, silly.
>>42713783The mobile layout seems a bit off. Also, is there any ETA on fixing the storage situation?
>>42716512I think there is some cookie fuckiness between versions Try it on a new browser and it looks fine to me, otherwise I'm getting the same thing on my normal browser
>>42716645Peertube holds onto cookies harder than most sites. CTRL+F5 fixes it on real systems, phones probably have to do a full blown cache clear op.
>>42716645I have my browser set to clear all data on exit. I just tried it again and it looks the same. This is on Firefox mobile.
>>42611248bump
>>42717334
>>42716512I experience a similar issue on desktop as well. I fear it may be a bug in this version of PeerTube, I'll look around a bit and see what I can find out.
>>42715272Yeah the internet has really gone to shit because of them. And smartphones were the last straw that allowed the idiots to enter.
On this episode of Community Outreach, I had the misfortune of getting a user link request from an artist who, in true form, neglected to use the verification code, wouldn't respond to site messages, and had DMs disabled on every platform other than Bluesky.It gets better: immediately after sending a message on LeftyXitter, my account was terminated. Apparently, one (1) message qualifies as spam on there.What a silly place. I'll wait and see if my appeal goes anywhere other than /dev/null.
>>42718583Gotta love it. In a similar vein, I've had a few who have tried to get verified links for deactivated/deleted accounts on Xitter/DA/FA.
>>42718612From humoring one of those, I can tell you that it's most likely setting up for a DNP.
>>42718615Oh yeah, I'm well aware that they were. Fresh accounts immediately asking for a link tend to be. Those ones I denied because their links couldn't be verified.
>>42718651Yeah, that's usually the best course of action. I only approved the link that one time because the guy went as far as publishing it unlisted on his deactivated account. I didn't even know you could do that.
