And also not use mongodb.

I don't see how that would work well with an imageboard. Every new thread gets its own channel? How would file uploads be handled?

>>25624638 >Every new thread gets its own channel? Yes, similar to how every twitch channel chat is it's own irc channel. >How would file uploads be handled? idk I was thinking of starting with just textboard :)

>>25624681 That falls short of a Lynxchan clone...

>>25624741 >That falls short of a Lynxchan clone... Shouldn't I be more concerned with gui first and file upload second?

>>25624571 well, i don't know lynxchan's innards but suppose there's some kind of interface for the backend stuff in theory you can write it using anything. if the interface is not great in your use case, you can always make adapter for your weird shit you could even encode binary files in irc channel but is that great idea... you decide just don't expect great results or performance

it's doable for sure but why would you want that
