[META] What's the point?

1 Name: Anonymous 2024-04-20 03:07
There are too many boards. It's better to make new boards when there is a need for them. The way it is right now will only divide the community and slow down the discussion. You could've easily combined /media/, /film/, /gaming/, /technology/ into /otaku/.

Also, how is this different from any other 2ch clone? What new ideas are you bringing to the table that others haven't already? I frequent 3 textboards already and they're all very unique. The only difference this tb seems to have is the "comfy" rule and I don't think it's enough. Especially when the identity of the board is based around such a vague and subjective theme.

I fail to see how this is going to have any sort of positive impact on modern web. I believe it's more likely that this tb will die in the upcoming months and it will be shut down unless you make improvements.

Lastly, anonymous texboards are not good replacements for discord servers. I don't know if that was the intention but that's not going to work. They're two very different ways of communicating with people and there is little overlap between their users.

No it is simply having to deal with Discord zoomer cancer like this. They have seemingly penetrated into every corner of the internet, infecting it with their lack of intelligence and buzzwords. Advertising this on Discord was a mistake.

>>1 ingenuity and longevity are not something I think someone should aspire to, its the lack of those 2 things that makes things FUN, when you see a cat playing in the dirt, do you think to yourself "is this bringing anything new to the table mr cat"

Something possessed you to make a thread on the very tb that you see no point in... very cute. Please oh please keep posting here OP-chan. Don't leave. I care about you

Just click on [all] and then you can see all the threads.

Something special? Well, this is a place for fans of videos like those of n0thanks. Doesn't need to be more special than that desu.

It has a different userbase. There's no need to force gimmicks into every community so you can feel like it's "special". It's just a place to chat and nothing more.

Bruv thinks this is a committee.

This is N0's TB and we either like it or we don't (I do). You are free to make your own and post it in /shill/ and if I like that then I would love to hang out there as well.

I wash my hands of the modern web.

There are too many boards.
This has been something I've considered too. To be honest, I didn't put that much thought into the boards, since the main purpose was to mirror channels from my previous discord server. The way I saw it, my primary goal at first was to make a smooth onboarding experience for discord users who may be unfamiliar with textboards, because if no one from my discord came here, denpa-chan would have been a failure right from the get go. As >>13 said, for now I'm not worried about it because /all/ centralises all the posts anyway, but if it becomes a problem in the future I'm open for change.
What new ideas are you bringing to the table that others haven't already?
This is a little confusing to me. Textboard is just a format for a type of website which is already well established. I'm not sure of the need to make some sweeping change to the format since in my eyes it is already proven to work well. That being said, I do have some plans in the future for unique features to implement which I haven't seen anywhere else, but it will take time for me to learn the requisite js and php skills to actually make them, so please have patience.
anonymous texboards are not good replacements for discord servers
In a big way that's the point. It's always seemed very strange to me that everyone has a discord server. I wanted denpa-chan to replace my old discord server in the sense that it would serve as a community hub, but I do not want to replicate the discord server.

This I strongly disagree with. This is a committee. I am very happy to take feedback and advice. In fact, I hope to implement more community events, votes, and other democratic features if possible. OP's advice was not low effort bait, let's try not to get defensive on reflex when there are some valid concerns here.

OP here.

Thanks for the meaningful response. The goal of this project was unclear to me before but now I understand that you are actively thinking about these things and have plans for the future.

As someone who thinks that centralized social media is harmful for the society, I fully support smaller, decentralized communities. It's always sad to see new text/imageboards die within a year and that's why I made this thread. I expect most users to leave soon but a small number of users will continue posting if there is a good reason to do so. Although I enjoy your videos I am not at all familiar with your fanbase so it's also possible that being a fan of yours is enough of a reason to continue posting here. For me, /shill/ is an interesting concept and I'm looking forward to your other ideas as well. Good luck with the textboard!

PS: Not entirely relevant to this topic but you might find this useful: https://meta.discourse.org/t/a-decade-of-forum-advice-from-something-awful/21391 and specifically section 9 has some good suggestions.
