>we can just report any issues we come across to the maintainer and let them deal with it
What a shit mindset, this is the kind of thinking that is the reason why all technology is endlessly getting worse and worse. no one is willing to take accountability for anything, it is always just someone else's fault, not yours.

There is literally NOTHING wrong with the software heyuri uses.
>Heyuri's #1 problem has always been the lack of a dedicated developer who can fix bugs, patch security holes
Please give an example of the "bugs" or "security holes".
software can just be functional, everything doesn't need to be in a perpetually constant state of being "updated" with "new" "features" and yet heyuri with no main developer gets new features pretty often...
99% of "bugs" and "security holes" need like ONE dude to fix them ONCE

>>61686
Read the thread properly instead of just jumping in at that post!

I'm not in support of dropping our current software, nor dropping the scripts we were using b4 kokonotsuba should it become completely nonviable - this was a thought experiment about the purely hypothetical scenario where none of the above options were viable (which isn't actually that hypothetical since we've had to move scripts a couple of times before)

And the problem is that Heyuri doesn't even have "ONE dude to fix them ONCE", as stated by kuz and kaguya many times over the past year and a half. You should read the previous townhall logs, where any and all ideas, feature requests, bugfixes, etc. regarding kokonotsuba and Heyuri were shot down across the board due to "lol no developers". And while kuz and kaguya have been able to fix certain things in the past themselves (usually after a lot of pressure and persuasion...), they will not always be able to do so - either due to not having enough l33t sk1llz, or simply being too burned out or busy with other things

If you lurk a little moar you'll also lern how we've been affected in the past by vulnerabilities and hax0rs - hell, it was only a few weeks ago that the entirety of /b/ was nuked via a lone MLP spammer, and that's far from the worst we've ever encountered

Heyuri was once forcefully taken offline and considered DEAD for 3 months in 2020 after a nefarious actor with root access took over and deleted the entire site after having already spammed the shit out of it for over a month after having already destroyed the hard drives of our previous servers causing us to lose an entire month's worth of heavy development on our (then) new script, not to mention all their social engineering and intentionally causing rifts among Heyuri's former staff

The ONLY reason something like that isn't happening on a more regular basis is because nobody with the ability to do so has been trying. That's it. All it would take is another skiddie to get butthurt over something, or decide to use us as target practice, and Heyuri will be deader than /dating/ once more. That's the cold hard truth, and that's why using a popular script used by several other sites who have already faced and resolved these problems has its benefits, should it ever come to that

I also recommend taking a look at our Strange World and Oekaki boards, which are both running on open source scripts maintained by individuals outside of Heyuri - all we have to do is occasionally update

>especially given that we've had ZERO actual developers behind Heyuri for the past year and a half
Jeez. You guys need to announce the need for developers, then - or get some exercise on the l33t skillz. Heyuri still has a lot of potential, even now.

>>61694
its been in the form of a banner for like 5 months...

>>61702
I seem to be very retarded.

Works just fine for me

I'm not sure how a de-refferer is "kolyma crap" but it sounds like you need to take thr stick out of your ass before I try to explain things rationally

What is the actual use of these jump pages? Is it just to show ads or collect data? Any use for the user?

ITS A DE-REFFERER YOU IDIOTS

Dereferrers are lame

rel="noreferrer" is teh new hotness

KUZ FACTS:
- he speaks fluent Russian and lives in the USA
- his waifu is/was Tomo from Azumanga Daioh
- he also lieks xqs's rendition of Setsunai Waha
- he is one of Heyuri's longest remaining oldbies, if not the longest
- he owns/hosts moar websites on any given day than he did the day before
- he has a seemingly conflicting penchant for both old interwebz culture and nu-4chan style shitposting
- he is a controversial figure on many bulletin boards, including some of his own
- he regularly partakes in long-form trolling and intentional misdirection, and is dedicated to the craft
- he is comftorably incorrect (´ー`)

KUZ MYTHS:
- everything else

Some say his hair can be used as shark repellent, and he once got arrested for selling a pickle that doesn't bounce in Connecticut.

Kuz is the former owner of Heyuri

kuz may be a cat

kuz is a pretty cool guy who doesn't afraid of anything

:partybus: yo

>download button
>redirects to the link of the image
i want a refund on my s4s link

>>61680
It used to work, but at some point kuz moved Heyuri's image storage to his CDN on a different, non-Heyuri domain, and web browsers now block initiating a download if the source file is on a different domain to the one you're viewing, so it's just kinda b0rked until someone moves our images back to heyuri.net or can implement some other form of fix

>>61680
who are you quoting?

back to twitter

Another bug since the server switch is that MP4s (maybe WebMs too?) don't have thumbnails any more

yep, thats another bug fixed ^_^

And that's another thx kuz!

Kokonotsuba is written in PHP

>>61599
Alright.
Is it okay if I send an email once I'm more well-versed with PHP? I've learnt all the basic shit about it and getting into aspects in it that are about web developement

>>61600
Sure, see you then

before i continue further, is there any extra info? like what DB does it use, PDO or mysqli? im learning w/ xampp and mysql using mysqli functions right now and dunno if its the right thing

Assuming the banner rotation script is just picking a random image from a directory containing all the banners (in other words, the paths and filenames for each individual banner are not hardcoded into the script itself), wouldn't it be fairly simple to set up a simple imageboard or uploader script that stores its source images in that directory? Isn't that pretty much how /banner/ used to work?

Inb4 it's not fairly simple

>>61587
honestly i think i might learn php just so i can contribute 2 heyuri. doubt it will be too hard already knowing multiple langs

>>61589
true but it would need some sort of system for it to be moderated, like inputted banners will be on a list and can be accepted or denied
and theres always spam so there has to be something to prevent that, like checking if a file with the same pixels as another exists in the queue, and remove it if so

>>61591
That would probably be very sensible, but I'm pretty sure the old /banner/ board had no such protections

Throwing caution to the wind is the Heyuri way ヽ(´ー｀)ノ

>>61591
that wouldn't be really hard to do. making a queue for admins to approve banners should be a pretty easy to do, and you can easily check if there are duplicates with md5 checksums

"Moar emotes" doesn't necessarily have to be the typical happy/sad/angry faces - and NOTHING should EVAR replace the Yotsuba ones!! (I was against even the Heyuri-tan edit idea!)

What I had in mind was more like having a variety of additional fun/cute pixel icons, like these:
https://hpgpixer.jp/en_pixel_art/
http://trade.gmobb.jp/1kb/
https://foollovers.com/mat/menuicon.html

Plus whatever Heyuri-related anime/character-themed stuff we can find

I WONDER IF HE KNOWS ABOUT THE

>>61467
Everyone knows about the , it's in the BBCode Reference...

Speaking of which - wasn't there some new(old) formatting options enabled recently? They weren't added to BBCode Reference

Theres a new emote in celebration of international kuz day:

Also, kaguya will reformat the BBCode page to be cleaner and nicer in the future

Dunno lol, you'll have to find and ask lolico. They're pretty old, I know that much

i think it was (now dead) dameib, but as anon said - only lolico knows, who is hard to reach nowadays

YOUR SAGE = NEGATED

Doomed to be political textboard?

>>61427
Australian Haruhi has a point, but I don't think its necessarily a bad thing.
Politics boards get a bad rap from the 4, but I think that one mostly sucks just because it is populated by loads of Dunning-Kruger types and general knuckledraggers.
There are plenty of examples of world/international boards where people can discuss politics/world events, but still maintain a good nature and have fun.

>>61445
P.S. We need to fix the textboard post numbers first, though. I haven't seen >>1-san in years.

please don't make it about actual "current" events

If SW had a ppd feature, then I'd die in peace
