We have to talk about you faggots not being able to figure out thumbnails

[Jimmy Olsen]

??? it doesn't cripple the site is just makes browsing unpleasant. it's essentially a matter of netiquette but I don't know how else to tell people to start being more fucking considerate

I'm just saying with all the gayop and glowie shit that has been going on the past few days, now isn't a good time to get mad about this.

Spoiler

I'M SPERGING BECAUSE I DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO POST IMAGES RIGHT AND MY FEELINGS ARE DAMAGED.

 

[Mason Verger]

Nothing like scrolling into a massive 4K image of a botched tranny stink ditch.

It’s even worse when it happens on kiwifarms.

 

[Null]

Why do you sound like an incel?

No clue, don't project

Have a picture open in another browser window, drag and drop it into the Xenforo post editor... And it creates a IMG tag linking to the original source of the file. Do this on pretty much any other platform, eg. Twitter, Pleroma, Matrix, whatever - and it will go download the file and host it either on the server or in a CDN. Xenforo's default behavior is weird, probably because this logic was decided back in 2000 or whatever when bandwidth was way more expensive. Hopefully Sneedforo will default to self-hosting the file and inserting a thumbnail.

Idk, maybe I'm just old, but I've literally never used the drag-and-drop feature anywhere. I have a compulsive habit of downloading everything, most likely a vestigial remnant from a time when 4chan threads moved much faster than they do now.

Thank you. I'm getting sick of this shit. I shouldn't have to scroll down five pages just to get through one post full of cell phone screenshots.

 

[What the shit]

When/if we get the software change I am just nuking A&N and not bothering to import its content because it's worthless.

It was nice while it lasted, at least for some people of course.

 

[DeadwastePrime]

Yes. The copy+paste jobs in A&N are by far the laziest, sloppiest shit on the site. A&N is beyond moderation to the point where I don't even bother pointing this out. Retard faggot niggers will literally include advertisements, asides, page notices, "READ MOREs" to other articles. Just unbelievably lazy. When/if we get the software change I am just nuking A&N and not bothering to import its content because it's worthless.

they cant help it. theyre literally retarded and only know ctrl+c and ctrl+v

 

[NOT Sword Fighter Super]

Anybody who doesn't know how to/isn't doing this should be pistol whipped.

 

[McSchlomo]

just ban all forum users tbh

 

[Mountain Dew]

I seem to recall some threads becoming unbrowsable because the browser choked rendering the pages due to all the un-thumbed phone screenshots with resolutions seemingly in excess of 4k.

Having a large monitor makes browsing some of the Reddit transgender selfies threads very scary because people will upload the full res without even spoiling or anything.

 

[Mr. 0]

default the site format to text-based only and charge users $10 to use/see images

rip @Lowtax

Mods, ban anybody who is using Kiwi Farms real tawk.

 

[Butter Keks]

Hey friend @Null can you make a video tutorial how to download things off of GitHub? I'm not autistic enough to figure that website out.

[A Sunset]

Thanks for the explanation, I’m tech retarded so it’s helpful to have things spelled out.

 

[admiral]

Phone posters truly are a plague on polite society.

 

[Windmill]

Wait, most users are mobile??

 

[Cilleystring]

What else am I supposed to mindlessly browse while taking my morning shit? My favorite lolcow threads don't generate enough content for that.

That's actually how I ended up in the A&N shithouse. Too many munchies, long dump, Greer thread was slow at the time, figured I'd catch up on current events.

It's a disaster though it's interesting to see the internets dumbest news articles all in one place. I get why Null hates it if it generates him needless stupid drama, and the fact that KF is a lolcow discussion site, not a political discussion site.

And I'm guessing its a fairly big source of the image and video issues he's talking about in this thread.

 

[NotFatChild]

I have never posted on a phone.

I'm still retarded though.
