I've updated the board frontend to the latest work in progress version. This is a total rewrite that purges nearly all old code, which is why it took so long to make. It does not yet have everything I want to add, but it is already five times more powerful than the old site and makes the place so much easier to use. With this update, we are closer to parity with other imageboards out there, both in features, and in site layout, but we are not there yet.
Some highlights are: - entire front-end rewritten from scratch, with nearly all of the old code base purged from this side (the backend has not been touched to avoid compatibility issues). - new responsive layout, with a more old school imageboard mode. The layout is based on the browser window size. On desktop PCs, it looks like a traditional imageboard, but on tablet or collapsed windows, it looks like the previous plus4chan layout. I may make a switch later to force either style, should you guys have a preference.

>>440195 Anon, there's no point in making a scene over something so trivial: it won't help. Just accept the fact that BlackHand doesn't want to get involved in this at all, becose not only does he have the right to that stance, but it’s also a decision that makes perfect sense logically.
>>440196 You invented a version of our behavior in your head, defeated it in your head, and now you're accusing us of not accepting the viewpoint the concocted in your head. I think you're smart enough to realize how stupid that is.

Putting in a request for the cherdenko.png banner to henceforth double as a link to the video from >>440020, in memory of our dearly departed comrade and the glorious site-wide theme day he inspired.
i feel like anonex will just have his plus4 board specific icons in the reskin instead of traditional banners, but i will accept banner submissions to put in rotation on /z/
>>440312 Shame Newgrounds mostly converts everything you upload to webp. THE ORIGINAL FILE WILL STILL BE THERE, but you will have to modify the link manually to access it.
>>437479 >The "one image per board" rule comes from classic 4chan, which plus4chan is based on. Different anon, but I wonder if this partly (I underline, partly) explains why 4chan stopped being a meme factory? I remember how (in those misty, far-off days) if you wanted to post a meme but found it'd been posted already, you'd open up MSPaint, make your own take on the meme and post that instead. Sure, you saw a lot of variations on the same theme, but the variations also served as inspiration for new memes. But lifting the "one-image-per-board" rule removed the incentive to make things yourself, resulting in a new board culture where anons passively saved and reposted ready-made material.
>>440240 Nitter is the only way to get RSS channels on twitter nowadays, it's a shame it's always slow as fuck and you have to switch instances every x months.

Starting one because I have a question but let's have it be general purpose for anyone that comes along.
I was messing around and broke one of the fans on the laptop cooling pad/stand I have it sitting on. Need to replace it, does anyone have advice on what model I should buy this time?
The old one just had two fans, one of my friends sent me it.

>>440263 You can still buy dumb phones that can do phone/texts just fine.
The real con is that things like banking apps get compiled with higher and higher SDK versions, so you need to get newer phones after a while or they stop working completely. Then again my last phone was 10 years old when this happened.
>>440266 I got a Poco phone specifically to install Lineage OS on it and I haven't had any issues with baking apps so far. That being said, I don't have high hopes my bank would eventually crack down on custom ROMs; no idea what to do if that happens, maybe I'm going to give up with banking apps and keep an android phone at home while going out with my LOS
On a related note, I have a basic plan of like 5GB of phone data per month and my friend is astonished I can get around with it, when we compared data usage he had like 10 times of what I use every month, so either he has a virus or his Android version does some stupid shit that burns the data like crazy.
