I'm a little curious, why do you want to make an imageboard, and what for?

>>531 No, you gotta believe in yourself! You could go to one of those imageboards that allows you to make your own board, but the communities on those sites usually aren't great. If you wanna run your own site, you should look at the different imageboard engines, the only one I don't recommend is vichan. That's where my knowledge on this subject ends unfortunately. ;__;

I've always wanted to make a music imageboard for uploading mp3/wav/flac, especially rare stuff I don't know how to do this yet

The vast majority of boards do not make it to their first birthday.

>>971 An imageboard sounds like the wrong format for that. I usually see blogs for that kind of thing.

>>994 Blogs are good for just 1 person uploading music, but if you want multiple people to upload, share, and direct download their music than an imageboard is actual a pretty good idea I think.

>>529 Interesting, I've wanted to write one for a while now but can't seem to find any motivation. Same for my booru project. But the problem usually is, how are you gonna keep it up? Hosting files cost space, and even with a small amount of users, some files can take up a lot of space. And about the users; you need a reliable userbase too. Not worth it to host an imageboard if you only get one post every blue moon.

>>1031 >Hosting files cost space This wouldn't really be a problem. Assuming you'd allow a max file size of 10MB, which is pretty generous for just images, we could calculate the (very unrealistic) average per file to be 5MB. You can get a 2TB HDD for under 100 bucks, which would be able to hold 400 thousand images, that's a lot! And text doesn't take up any space in comparison >And about the users; you need a reliable userbase too This is another story

>>1031 you could start a dicksword/mastodon/whatever clique and then tell people to switch to your ib, maybe even experiment with an invite only policy like cock.li - there are a few codebases that support it. I don't think everyone likes having all their posts and interactions associated forever to an account. personally, identity feels like a prison in my journey towards internet-induced schizophrenia

>>1039 Who'd use an imageboard with no users though? And I completely agree with the second part. Anonymity brings out the best and worst of us though. We can (mostly) say what we want without consequences, but we can also say things we would never have if it could be connected to our actual identities.

>>529 i have some expirience with hosting imageboards with vichan. because i am poor i hosted it on a tiny computer on my home network using NGINX. i would reccomend this guide if you want to set up something similar: https://comfy.guide/server/vichan/. and if you dont want to use vichan i would reccomend this guide: https://dev.to/fajarwz/laravel-10-crud-and-image-upload-tutorial-with-laravel-breeze-and-repo-example-4fn0 though you will have to change some of the CSS code in the last guide to make it feel authentic.
Your fortune: Excellent Luck
