>>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 The site got hacked all because of a PDF and outdated frontend coding, not Flash itself.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.
