[_] How to fix /f/? Anon 3499184 What would be the easiest to implement and least intrusive change that would benefit /f/? I personally think a sticky with a download link for the offline flash projector from adobe would give newfags as well as returning /f/ags at least a little bit of help playing the swf that are posted on this board. I'm happy that at least the mods updated the Ruffle version that is used on /f/, it was stuck on an old build for a very long time and I was starting to lose hope. A bigger file size limit would open up /f/ to new flashes that have so far not been posted and might breathe some new life into this board. And there is at least one artist that is active on /f/ that can't post his flashes here because they are too large. Furthermore, a 4chan native archive for this board, like all the others already have, would be nice. You could open expired threads after the fact and read any new posts you might have missed, and you can link and see them in other threads without having to go to any external archive. Linking to /f/ from other, slower boards might also be more viable. It's sad to see a link to a flash die in one of your posts. At least one anon was clamouring for a larger number of threads that could be up simultaneously on /f/. At first I was not sure if there would be a notable benefit from implementing this change, but because of the way threads are pruned on /f/ it would be akin to adding an archive, since it just extends the life of all threads by a flat duration. Then again, /f/ used to be a lot more active in the past and was just fine with the current amount of board space. Plus, I've only seen boards get extended when their traffic increases to the point were threads are pruned too quickly, not when their traffic decreases... Also I don't think /f/ is broken, I just needed a subject to grab people's attention. Marked for deletion (old).
>> [_] Anon 3499187 >># Nice song, thanks anon. It goes to the queue list. About the topic. I had the same problem, I make a thread, link it to other board and the link dies too quickly. It's almost useless. I would choose to extend the termination date. If I have to make just one change.

It's just that, with the janny seeking announcement we see that maybe there could be a chance to change something here. But I don't think it will happen. My only concern is a new janny fucking shit up somehow. So I only hope the board remains untouched. But, I would like a bigger list of threads and more time or no time at all for deletion. It would improve the board, and nothing would change visually.

>> [_] Anon 3400866 It's not dead, it just isn't hot or popular. it's the smallest and slowest board, but the posts are by and far the most varied with the rare gem being found here if you stick around long enough. I have /f/ as my main 4chan bookmark, it's the only board where you can literally see all of its content at the same time at a glance, I love that about it

>> [_] Anon 3400892 aint never scared
>> [_] Anon 3400894 I'm so worried chinkmoot will axe /f/ when mainstream browser support finally dies
>> [_] Anon 3400907 I also come here almost daily and it's the only 4chan board I use. When they'll shut flash support down on Chrome I'll just use Firefox, or there might be a workaround. Keep up the good work guys. May flash live forever

>> [_] Anon 3398177 /f/ I'm sorry that I don't have any creative energy or the Know How to make flashes but I just wanted to say that I appreciate all your genuine work here and all the great flashes that brightened up my life the past years!
>> [_] Anon 3398178 Such is the price for keeping the board's soul and most of it's culture. But it's fine, /f/ has endured and will continue to endure for years to come.
>> [_] Anon 3398179 >># i sure hope so anon but when you think about it realistically we only have about a year or two left.
>> [_] Anon 3398180 >># In reality we have until browsers stop supporting flash entirely. Once the only option is using standalone players then either the board will hae to adopt a new format or it'll be gone for good. Of course it all depends on whether fan-made extensions or addons for flash will be maintained, in case they do it's life might be extended for some years. Regardless, the spirit of the board and it's community shall live on and I'll be proud to say I was part of the only board on this site to live and die without turning to shit.
>> [_] Anon 3398182 >># We will find ways to keep the board going with outdated versions of browsers and such. I hope.
>> [_] Anon 3398183 >># let's just hope the board stays even after browsers stop the support. Probably won't happen.

>> [_] Anon 3398189 All those .swf's will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die.

>> [_] Anon 3398199 Anyone know how to make chrome play swf files again? It's been months without, someone free me from this curse.
>> [_] Anon 3398201 and there hasn't been OC in over 10 years
>> [_] Anon 3398202 >># chrome hasn't been able to okay flashes in new tab for years now you either change your browser or stay cucked
>> [_] Anon 3398203 >># Nah dude, it only forced you out a few months ago, there were ways to get them to play. Also, >implying I don't have flash player I don't want to download every flash just to play it friendo.
>> [_] Anon 3398204 >># >using chrome in the current year anon I...
>> [_] Anon 3398206 This was the first board I came to and will probably be the last. This place is one of the last few bastions of what the internet was and should have continued to be.
>> [_] Anon 3398207 these panic threads crack me up. folks thinking because adobe is stopping support for flash that folks won't make flashes anymore. then retards that say 'but browsers don't support it anymore'. how the fuck can you /f/ and not know about stand alone flash projector? xD
>> [_] Anon 3398209 It's not as if this is the only place in the whole internet that has flashes. Shit, it's not even the only flash board, I can think of like 5 others just off the top of my head What actually do all the other places entirely or at least largely based around flash think of the current situation? Big places like Newgrounds. >># >Regardless, the spirit of the board and it's community shall live on and I'll be proud to say I was part of the only board on this site to live and die without turning to shit. This. I'm pretty used to other dead boards and I love them cuz they keep their life and character, despite the numbers. At this point this is literally the only board on 4chan I visit regularly. I wouldn't bother if this place disappeared.
>> [_] Anon 3398210 >># switch to waterfox
>> [_] Anon 3398211 >># Download Brave browser immediately, it's like actually updated and better ungoogled-chromium, very secure and private if you care about these things, and supports normal chrome extensions, gives you greater control as well, including integrated flash availability.
>> [_] Anon 3398212 does hiroyuki even care about flash?
>> [_] Anon 3398213 >># does he even care about 4chan in general?
>> [_] Anon 3398214 >># this is the real threat desu. flash doesn't need to die, hiroyuki just needs to get bored enough to pull the plug
>> [_] Anon 3398216 >># I don't know if hiroyuki knows we exist
>> [_] Anon 3398217 Is that graph real? I haven't that drastic a drop in posts. Guess I can trust 4plebs though. Dang man, that's sad.
>> [_] Anon 3398220 >># Shhhh shut the fuck up if he forgets we're here we can live forever.
>> [_] Anon 3398228 The board nobody knows about
>> [_] Anon 3398229 Here until the end, /f/riends.
>> [_] Anon 3398230 >># >># Flash is getting decapitated at the end of the year, I admire your optimism but let's be real... even if we somehow put /f/ on life support past that it's only a matter of time.
>> [_] Anon 3398231 >># Supposedly Newgrounds has some kind of player they're encouraging people to install that will let them play Flash games and videos past the cutoff point. I have it on my desktop now but I haven't installed it yet. The only other site I care about losing besides NG and /f/ is Albinoblacksheep and I have no idea what they're going to do. I'm probably better off just mass-downloading all their shit so I can be a stuck in the past old fart by myself.

>> [_] Anon 3398235 I literally just discovered this board and it's already dieing. Fuck.
>> [_] Anon 3398237 >># absolutely this, this is the only board left where people won't spoonfeed newfags, and just tell them to lurk more. This is the only board left where I see people not feeding trolls. This is the board where I see the most consistent amount of OC; whether it's shit or not doesn't matter in the long run as long as it's OC. If the price to keep the integrity of this site alive is watching it fade into obscurity, I'd gladly pay it as long as it goes with dignity. It's a far better alternative than what happened to all the other boards I used to browse.
>> [_] Anon 3398238 /f/ holds a special place in my heart.
>> [_] Anon 3398240 I just stopped by after literal years of not visiting this board because only IE supports flash now. And this is the top post ;_;

>> [_] Anon 3398260 >># It's sad but not unexpected since those were the people who would just use it because it was mandatory for certain websites; those people wouldn't go the extra, and oftentimes minimal, effort to run flash in their browser. Also recently 4chan has been blocking certain networks from uploading files due to "abuse", i.e. scam to sell 4chan passes, and that unfortunately includes /f/. Since I'm forced to use a hotspot for internet, i've been locked out of uploading swfs for months now; who knows how many other /f/ regulars were blocked out of posting threads.
