The Bibliotheca Anonoma has built two drop in replacements in Python to replace the aging FoolFuuka/Asagi archival stack. https://wiki.bibanon.org/FoolFuuka
Our goal is to increase scraper efficiency, increase performance of the search engine, and significantly reduce the training time and setup necessary to operate a 4chan archive.
This new server setup allows us to generate backups without affecting scraping, public backups will be uploaded over the coming months.
If you'd like to help develop or plan to make a 4chan archive of your own, it is a tough road but we have the expertise to help you set things up. Post below or contact us at:

* https://github.com/bibanon/neofuuka-scraper is in use at Desuarchive as part of this server migration. See the improved features over Asagi scraper in the repository.
* https://github.com/bibanon/ayase is a drop in replacement for the FoolFuuka frontend, check it out at our demonstration site: https://ayase.wakarimasen.moe. It is sufficient for non-ghostposting use, but we are still working on search and moderation tools and development help is appreciated.

Lastly, We hope to learn Rust to totally redesign the Asagi SQL schema. (currently dependent on Percona MariaDB TokuDB and has numerous conversion issues) Two efforts are underway:
* https://github.com/miyachan/torako is a drop in replacement for the Asagi scraper. It is in testing at https://ayase.wakarimasen.moe .
* https://github.com/reasv/mitsuba is a full stack archive stack replacement and PostgreSQL schema redesign, most likely the best path forward past the aging Asagi schema.

Search currently does not work properly for strings containing accented ASCII characters. For instance, a username:query pattern for any of the following will return results if true positives exist:

a
b
c

but an "a" with diacritics, such as ä, will not.

As sad as I am that 4chan’s gone, I’m more upset that Hiroyuki neglected the site, and let power hungry, spiteful mods run the place into the ground.

is it true that you all are making a archive for the sharty and other altchans

ADD GHOSTPOSTING ON /qa/ RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Open ghostposting on deleted boards like /qa/

4chan is down. Let's talk about it.

I miss you all so much. Where have you been going since the hack?

are there any irc log archives for all the 4chan related channels? especially ones that are up to date

Looking for
/pol/
"/pol/"
'/pol/'
Gives me results for pol alone, without slashes
Just an example, but how can I return results containing the term "pol" with slashes around it (like "/pol/" or '/pol/'), instead of just the term "pol" alone?

I was harassed by anonymous users who spread misinformation and hate about me. As someone new to 4chan, I didn’t fully understand the culture, and now I’ve been permanently banned because someone who raided my Bunny Maloney thread hacked my IP and started posting furry scat porn. Appealing the ban has been frustrating since 4chan still relies on outdated technology like IRC instead of email.

Joining 4chan was a mistake. I was bullied so hard that they started blaming the Bunny Maloney fandom and even the creator. No matter what I said, they refused to understand and kept attacking me. Maybe it’s my fault, maybe it’s theirs—but either way, they harassed me to the point where I’m now afraid to post about something I like. Maybe I spent too much time on /trash/, a board that truly lives up to its name.

Looking back, my life would be better without 4chan. I was browsing it almost 24/7, and I was already starting to get bored. I’m also sorry for posting Bunny Maloney in unrelated threads—I didn’t realize it would make anons so angry. I was just too excited about it. People lied about me being into scat, and because of that, I’m done with 4chan.

See you never.
