>>435202 >Probably because the new code dosen't support Flash. They don't even have to support it, they just have to allow it to be uploaded. You can install a browser based flash player (Ruffle).
>>435239 replying to myself, but, i don't think removing /f/ would solve the problem. The site got hacked all because of a PDF and outdated frontend coding, not Flash itself.
>>435239 Ruffle is just for displaying the flash files, so it shouldn't pose any security problems (to 4chan, though may pose problems to the users). Likewise /f/ does fuck all processing on the flash files, so removing it makes no sense, that board is not a security issue.
The only reason I can think of is that /f/ uses different posting rules/fields and a different index, and the two cent indian outsourced coder they have hired for the job doesn't want to make sense of it.
>>435384 webp is just a cancer that google is pushing, they are pushing it so hard that every website is using a plugin to convert their jpg/png assets into webp. so it is dangerous in that it enforces generational data loss on every file.
with how every other site (twitter etc) is recompressing files too, and how cloudflare has a plugin to do it domain wide as well (that 4chan is using), webp should absolutely not be supported anywhere for the absurd damage it is doing to the internet.
>>435385 This. For the love of God, please do not enable people who are ignorant enough to actually ask for webp support. If they saved the first image search result they saw and then found they couldn't upload it here because it's in webp format, that's their problem for not looking harder.
