0chan.vip (multichan) is down.
unavailable.

the last bastion of truth & freedom. a truly decentralized federated multichan
bbs without js bloat.

bring it back.
pohon is not a replacement because it's not a decentralized multichan.

Once you cut spam out of the equation, per month multichan maybe had
3 or 4 non-spam users posting, and I suspect at least half of them post
here. To the best of my knowledge, 0chan was the only multichan node up.

If you do with to host your own node, be informed the moderation tools
are subpar. I will be releasing the full set of posts and tags this week
on github if you want to restart the project. Multichan works fine on
Tor and Tor and clearnet instances can even talk together.

I was thinking about how to improve on multichan. Anonymity + federation
= spam, a hypothesis verified by NNTPchan, Multichan, and Fchannel all
alike. I was thinking: what about a *chan based around the use of PGP
keys? it would reduce spam and make it easier for users/instances to
filter out low quality content. Then I stumbled upon Nostr protocol...

I'm debating whether to make a proper multichan sequel with PGP support
and better moderation tools, building on multichan/pohon source, or
building a *chan-like frontend for Nostr network. While Nostr is less
anonymous than multichan, it is much more resilient and gives users a
ton of great tools.

Nostr is intended to be a microblogging-like service, but it isn't
necessarily one. There are wiki, blog, and market softwares built on
the protocol. (not to mention, end-to-end encrypted messaging) See
some Nostr-verse software here:

http://nostr.net/

Even though multichan had cool ideas, spam was a nightmare and for... 2 years?
there has been to my knowledge only one node operating, and it got very little
traffic. So I simply didn't see any point to make it keep living and put it
out of its misery. If you can convince me why it should be brought back, I'll
consider it, as a subdomain here or on //4x13.net

If there is to be a multichan2 at some point, aside from PGP, I would also
like it to maintain a living archive of all known textboards and make it easy
for people to scrape other sources to generate threads. This was part of my
plan for multichan from the start although I never got around to it.

in nostr
- if Relay & Client go offline, where is content hosted?
- Relay stores content. Does it store entire archive of whole network? And able to read and see data stored & who posted what. Or be flooded.
- nostr seems like can't run decentralized sql, same poroblem of web3, ipfs (thats hosts only static content)
