/f/ is the worst board.
i seriously can't understand how you fags can endure years and years of reposts and shitty
encodes. hardly any new content is streaming in because swf is an obsolete file type in favor of
webm/html5/webgl. the low file size limit and lack of features the other boards have doesn't help
either.
/f/ should just be wiped off the face of 4chan or renovated into /media/ where more diverse
options can be uploaded instead.

all /wsg/ has is webm. it's an easy format to include which is why all the boards can do it as
well. for an upload board that has its own section, it could do better.
>/f/ is supposed to stay retro
says who? people constantly try to sidestep its limitations to include "modern" content in
exchange for shitty encode/more bloat. giving /f/ more features just makes it more convenient to
do so and so much more. if you want to include retro shit, that's always been an option too.

suggesting changing the actual form of the board in some way, while OP just wants to tell all the

the point is, the conversion from video to swf already exists and there's nothing you can do
about it. this won't change if other formats are allowed, but at least now everything else can be
included and at higher quality as well.
>repeating your funney maymays for teh lulz
pretty sure that's already been happening for close to a decade now, even more so with the
current restrictions. the file size limit did get increased in the past though, and nobody
complained it either.

But that'll dilute the swf content that's already here. If you're going to allow stuff like html5
on 4chan then make a separate board, /media/ or something, and exclude .swf files from that board.

I like how /f/ changes quickly through a day. Very few reposted swfs go in a full day and
browsing in the morning is not the same as it is in the night. Sure we get reposts, youtube rips
shitty flashes. But isn't it always like it? I bet there goes few with something here someone
hasn't seen ever. Thats why I come here, someday I find something new.
>> [_] Anonymous 01/06/17(Fri)01:42:27 No.3198010

that's a good idea and i wonder why that wasn't suggested earlier. but personally i believe that
the other formats are similar and the only reason for separating them is to let swf be treasured
as a relic of the past.
>>3198001
it feels the opposite for me. this day alone was pretty much just /pol/. because of the
continuous repetitions, the new ones are appreciated more. introducing new formats will
definitely bring about waves of new content as well. it'll also be new and not new because
someone didn't see it reposted before

on a visual and interactivity level they're pretty much identical on the surface. the other
features are rarer and not utilized enough to convince me they deserve their own board.
>And that's a bad reason why?
i don't think it's bad, i'm just not aware of other significant reasons besides that one to
differentiate swf from the rest. /f/ is nowhere near as populated as /v/ is

What does that have to do with anything?
There are many boards that are less populated than /f/. /gd/, /po/, /hr/, /hm/, /3/. Don't let
/f/'s 30 thread limit fool you into thinking that there aren't very many people here.

swf is a media file. it mostly does the same shit as the other formats. the reason why /vr/
separated from /v/ was because /v/ couldn't hold all that shit in by itself, but /media/ could.
when post count is involved, it's not even a contest between the two.
>> [_] Anonymous 01/06/17(Fri)02:16:45 No.3198022

So you're saying that this new /media/ board, which could hold some alternatives (what are they,
I only know of html5?), already has more content than /f/ does? If you'd take a look at this
handy https://www.swfchan.com/ website, you might want to review that assertion.

i don't know why you're trying to put words in my mouth or how you interpreted what i said as
such. to reiterate, swf is a media file, which belongs in /media/. swf is similar to /vr/ such
that they are both aging technologies/products. the reason why /vr/ diverged from /v/ is because
/v/ became too convoluted and there was enough interest in /vr/ to give it its own board. just
like with /vp/, /vg/, etc. the same can't be said with /f/ at its present state

Yes it can, which is why there's a board dedicated to it and why /media/ doesn't exist. Anyway go

I like /f/ because you still see the same shit after years. It's familiar no matter when you
browse, feels like home. Sometimes there's new shit to laugh at, new jokes are made, but at the
end of the day there are a handful of in-jokes you can laugh about, a little bit of [H] to fap
to, and some pleasant music for any number of tastes to enjoy.
I also really like the layout and format. The board has a lot of room to creatively name/tag your
files. To some, a big pile of shitposts and injokes might sound disgusting, but to others like me
it's cozy. It's home. i lov u /f/

the question is, is it popular enough to have split boards from the get-go? will lumping swf

the introduction of new mediums won't do anything but give more options to express /f/'s so
called "board culture". but i suppose one of the defining features is not only stealing shit from
everywhere anyway, but also intentionally limiting the places you can do so and squeezing it
through a lens even a phone would laugh at. /f/ is the frog in the well that ultimately doesn't
deserve better than being the shittiest board
