Something like that.
At this posting rate, a raspberry pi would suffice.

I've had a test chan (using modified dietchan) for a few days, so maybe I can't talk about disk space, but memory usage was really small (a few MBs) and the CPU usage was close to zero (it's not like it wasn't used, over those few days we racked up around 200 posts).

vichan is overrated but so is anything when it sets the standard especially for clones. Lynxchan looks like ass out of the box and its configuration is not for beginners.

These days there are more imageboards than imageboard users.

>>239It's a good thing. Instead of having blogs with comments, people run anonymous imageboards.

one: don’t
there are a bazillion chan boards that are all the same

>>144I run a small chan of my own software using php at cchan.cba.pl. It's not hard once you learn the basics of html, css, and php. Making your own is a great way to learn about the software you use and take for granted and its nice to call something your own. I think its better than just using tinyboard or futaba. cba.pl and 000webhost both have free options, but you don't have to cheap out as you can get it for pretty cheap. If you had a good enough computer you could host it yourself with apache or nginx, although i'm not sure if the cost of what you would pay for electricity outweighs the cost of cheap hosting.
>>254Most of them are the same, but it's better to have a small community of people than a huge centralized group. The smaller chans generally do not get as much attention and are more stable, and are shaped more easily by the small amount of people that make up it. I don't mind not having a post every second, as long as I get to stay in my tiny corner of the internet.

Stop pretending you're some leet hackers in the cyberspace. Ironically, so many lain followers are full of themselves that you can't grasp the full meaning of the show

>>300You were saying how you rolled your own.
>>303There's nothing better to do here but to reply to bait. Nobody really cares about this place.
>>304Nice projection. Nobody likes it when shit is shilled. Being an imageboard doesn't mean free speech extremism. I don't even like lain. Are you a laincel?

>>305Nothing wrong with a little shilling every once in a while
>I don't even like lain. Are you a laincel?Why don't you like lain? I enjoyed the the show and the topics that it introduced, like surveillance and the wired. I thought this was a technology and anime imageboard. Theres even a Lain board. Is she too loli for you?

>>144You could buy a cheap optiplex and use that as your server. Literally most optiplexes made in the last 10 years would be overkill for a board of this size. You can use your regular ISP as the host provider. There really is no reason to buy a VPS/Dedicated server for nearly most websites. You should only upgrade to those services once you're site is too big.

I'm currently working on an imageboard engine.
It'll be written in C#.
If anyone has any questions or have any recommendations of features they'd like the engine to have let me know.
The goal is to create something that non-programmers can use. Something that's efficient and written as clearly as possible so beginners can learn from it.
If anyone has any questions lmk. Should be out in about a month,

>>520Is it going to be released under the AGPL? Why C#?
No.522
>>521It'll be open source, not sure under what license. Anyone will be free to steal it, use it, hack it whatever. There will also be an executable for ease of use.
Why C#:
1. The project started as a personal challenge. I'm not reading the source of vichan or tinychan I'm treating the boards as a blackbox and writing the code from the functionality I observe. I wanted to see if I could create an imageboard from scratch with a new language that would be useful for me in future projects.
2. C# has good performance
3. C# is easy to read so it'll allow newer programmers to reverse engineer the software and learn from it.
4. C# is hot in the market atm and I don't see it going away, making it valuable for people to learn about.
