   This is getting stupid.
   
   Do we have a decentralized or distributed alternative to gelbooru?
   
   Or at least something updated more than once every few years (such as some I2P boorus).
   
   Sankaku is "AI" slop garbage to an even greater extent than it was a few years ago, to the point it's no longer even functional.
   
   Danbooru has stupid tag limitations. 2 tags at a time is useless for anything other than crawling.
   
   The others have users that don't seem to understand tags are supposed to be used.

     @Ree @lispi314 there was a while back people were asking for a better hydrus. if i could be bothered to finish the gtk wrapper penance i might be convinced to do it.
     
     i dunno about the web forums itself. there's like. already a handful of those.

     @lispi314 @Ree NNTP is fucking trash at transferring binaries.

     @icedquinn @Ree Web forum isn't really the main reason to use the site, I feel.
     
     That could be replaced by an I2P NNTP server without much trouble.

     @lispi314 @Ree somehow think trying to make one torrent per image is going to be kind of a mess.
     
     its possible to do this right now with webtorrent. but there's also like 30,000 plus images on rule34.
     
     torrents also get a little stupid when it comes to sharing collections. you can probably construct a way to do it (bin all the images like hydrus does, make sure each torrent uses the same piece splits etc, so you can at least share the file between collections it belongs to)

     @icedquinn @Ree 1) Not catastrophic and you should be publishing magnet links anyway.
     
     2) Why would you be transferring binaries over a forum? I suggested it for the forum functionality.
     
     The tagged index + image functionality is the "booru" part people care about.
