I've migrated and fixed a bunch of shit along the way, but if anything is broken please use this thread to report it. I've locked the previous thread to focus new issues here.

Two known issues:
- Favicon didn't fly so good
- Need to set up a new tor socks5 proxy for webring

Both of these will be fixed shortly.

Yeah, it works now. It went offline on 07/05 some time between 12:09:05 and 13:33:44. Going to the correct homepage, boards, threads was either Tor Browser's "not found" message or "disconnected" message, I forget exactly, not the same message as the broken redirect. In fact, going to the incorrect homepage wasn't even causing the broken redirect. Other onions worked.

It's true and even logical. AWS and Azure are the easiest ways to get a lot of servers that all can run bots. You can also use the servers as proxies.
Just discovered jschan, nice project.

Onion mirror just displays a blank page.

Clearnet mirror doesn't work properly in the netsurf browser, CSS style seems to be broken and there is no postform. It should theoretically work without JS, right?
Okay, I'm fucking retarded and *http* url fix works

EDIT 9/17: APPLICATIONS ARE NOW OPEN FOREVER. FEEL FREE TO SUBMIT ONE AT ANY TIME.
I will leave the rest of the post intact, please ignore the special stipulations.

Hello and welcome to the fist round of BO applications for zzzchan. I will outline the application process below, along with some special stipulations for this first round.

To apply for a board, you must submit your answers to the following questions: 

1. What will the focus of your board be?
2. What will the rules be?
3. How would you handle the following hypothetical scenarios:
    A. A user who is only breaking the rules of your board has a substantial post history that is perfectly fine up until the single instance you are reviewing. What do you do?
    B. A spammer posts CP. What do you do?
    C. A spammer has slid your catalog and all unpinned threads are gone. What do you do?
4. What time range(s) would you normally be able to keep an eye on the board?
5. If your board becomes active enough, do you agree to look for one or more vol(s) to help you? Do you know anyone already?

I was planning to just announce that an update of the site software was due, but given the recent happenings a more detailed post is in order.

First let me address the elephant in the room: the 4chan hack situation and high volume of users in the wake of a potential migration. As it stands, zzzchan's infrastructure is way overkill and it already is rated to sustain traffic comparable to peak 8chan. And it's set up to be easy to scale up or down, meaning there shouldn't be any issues on the stability and performance fronts barring the occasional adjustment. As for the fear some may have of how a large influx of newcomers might harm the established community, just know we aren't really planning to change the way the site is handled or moderated. So to anyone new, you're more welcome to stay as long as you adapt to zzzchan's customs. I hope you enjoy your time here and all the features modern IB software has to offer. 
Board creation is also open, and the application process is outlined in >>>137

Second, freespeechextremist along with my account on it is no more and I have no idea what the admin is smoking. I've set up a poa.st account which will be largely used the same way as the FSE account, mainly news about outages and downtime. You can find me @sturgeonfish https://poa.st/@sturgeonfish

The webring is getting back to it's old user count.

If by the webring you mean specifically 8chan, yes. Neither zzz nor smug took on any refugees from cuckchan besides maybe a handful, and I am very doubtful they exclusively use either website. 
8chan is the clear benefactor from this entire ordeal, since the open-minded cuckchanners who were eager for real change and didn't suffer from Stockholm syndrome remained on 8chan when 4chan came back, while the soyjak spamming niggerbrained idiots who aren't worth keeping returned to 4chan.
In all I think this is very reminiscent of what happened 11 years ago with the original 8chan. 4chan still lives but it lost a chunk of users who went on to greener pasture imageboards like 8chan. It's like every few years the honeycomb accumulates some ripe nectar which the beekeeper cuts off but leaves the rest to mature for later.
STOP BEATING YOUR LITTLE PECKER TO THE CP YOU "DELETE" AND RANGEBAN ISRAEL GOD FCKIN DAMMIT!!!

This thread is for handling boards from other sites that wish to migrate here/have been orphaned if public thread creation is locked on /meta/. If public thread creation is open you are free to make a dedicated thread here, otherwise I will make one for you.

The rules for migration are : 
- All Migrating/orphaned boards will be considered outside of the application cycle and should contact me at the same email address listed below.
- I will require proof that you are/were the BO/mod of the original board, or that the moderation team for the board in question has fallen apart.
- You must agree to follow all global rules for this site.
- You must agree to actively moderate the new board.
- If accepted, you must notify anons on the old board if it still exists. I do not mind If zzzchan is used as a bunker, the new board will be unlisted in this type of scenario and will not be announced until ready.

Feel free to ping me at [email protected] in case of a happening. I'll come right here.

Hello and welcome to zzzchan! I will be using this thread to explain how this site is set up and answer the initial wave of questions. Thread creation on /meta/ will be locked initially, I will explain how this will be handled going forward below.

Now, to answer some initial questions:

>Who the fuck are you? Who are the other mods?
I am sturgeon, I was a mod back on fat/v/ and later z/v/. fat/v/ was my first role as a moderator in any capacity. I'm happy to say that Pasta and seagull have also stuck around and will be managing /v/. r9k's BO will also be back.

>Nice namefagging
I intend to only use my name & role tag when posting something relevant to my role or the site. 

>Why have you set this up?
Because zchan was doing fairly well before the admin pulled the plug without warning. I'd been considering making my own IB since fat died but once zchan went down I decided I had to make the effort. 

>Will you abandon this after x amount of time?
I've gone through the effort of setting all this up after losing 2 previous boards. I'm doing this because I want it to, and I plan to keep this place running as long as I can.

If you don't mind a 15-20 second delay, use Peertube. I've been using it for a few years now to stream vidya on cytube and it's been alright.
How viable is to add 4chan XT features? I've noticed that some sites from the webring are compatible with the extension but I don't know if this site uses the same software.
Simple things like expand media just hovering the mouse or having a minimap showing your posts and (you)s is a nice thing to have.
Replies: >>4997

probably not this site uses a brand new software which is still in development
I suggest that you remove clipboardimg. All it does is enable low quality posts. It just enables people that are too lazy to save pictures and bloats the filesize. I really do think disabling clipboardimg would greatly improve the quality of posts. It will simply filter alot of shitters.

Add an I2P address pls.

I2P doesn't have some of the vulnerabilities of Tor (see Dread DDoS) and has better, more reliable performance for hidden services. Oh and it supports torrenting. In fact it's integrated to default I2P client, so unlike on Tor, fun is allowed. Finally, unlike Tor, it does not rely on centralized directory authorities. The network is truly decentralized. It makes for a different set of pros and cons. If nothing else, it's good for hedging your bets with Tor, but generally, I2P is just better for hidden service use. That's what it was designed for. Meanwhile Tor is first and foremost a proxy system to clearnet.
For website hosting, you can use i2pd which is a more performant C++ implementation without the bells and whistles.

Some chans that already have I2P support:

Turns out you can leave out the "example.i2p" block from your webserver config since those kinds of addresses are simply base64 aliases to the B32 address.

The OpenBSD config would look like this now:
language: json
server "zmjdpytveh2mp6krdnlniupxnv2cgacmffhznbxvgypl63tjchfa.b32.i2p" {
        listen on * port 8080
        root "/htdocs/examplesite"
        no log
}

There's something funny about seeing an MTLed version of just an infographics, that's just a small beginner's guide to using a program. Are Muttmericans so lazy and backwards that they can't make their own version from the ground up, still with Neptune (or other preferred 2D girl) and all?

So, uhh... do we have i2p support yet?

Right now you can post textfiles to zzzchan but they're served as downloads for some weird reason, unlike PDFs. Please fix that.

Did something happen to trashchan.xyz? Attempting to access it gives 500 Internal Server Error, and more worryingly, it is not listed in the webring any more. It's not gone, is it? I don't want to lose the comfy board for Neps. Especially since 4Cuck /nepgen/ has nearly been ruined by some extremely annoying and persistent shitposters.
