Kill all the dumb frogposters.

Block all the zoomers and boomers from accessing /g

It can't be fixed unfortunately. A nice site is inherently incompatible with Jow Forums board culture.

Ban Jow Forumstards from all other boards.

Bring back /prog/ and let Jow Forums be the cesspool that it is

Block all users with a Windows useragent string.
Even if windows users figure out how to get around the block, those people are more than welcome to stay.
Simply by virtue of being able to google your own problems and resolve them yourself, you're already better than 99% of the crossboarding windows-only shitcunts from /v/.

Kill all retarded jobless lincucks

only let pass post in order to discourage shills.

Remerge sci

So the smart employed Linux professionals can stay?

>If windows users figure out how to get around the block
Inspect element

You need a barrier to entry to keep shitheads out, no matter how minor it is.

ban amd vs intel vs nvidia threads
ban windows vs linux baits

This is a good idea.
It would put an end to all tech support threads that mods refuse to take down and all homework help threads.

/v

Threads that contain "OH NO NO" should be an auto permaban. Frog posting and wojak posting should be an auto permaban (you too OP). OS war and processor war threads should be an auto permaban.

honestly i like Jow Forums. it allows me to anonymously discuss technology with a big number of people who admire free speech, and i don't see what exactly needs to be fixed. maybe this would bring a little filter on shitposts, but it don't think it would change much.

i'm a programmer but i'm also interested in all IT-related subjects so having a dedicated /prog/ board would be inconvenient as i'd have to browse two boards instead of one.

>So the smart employed Linux professionals can stay?
Yes
The only Lincucks that can be tolerated

good evening fellow redditor

split it into a consumer electronics board and a technology board

When was the last time the Jow Forums devs added any new features to this site aside from shift-jis compatibility to /jp/ in 2011?
They should remake /prog/ and add a built-in anonymous git hosting so people can work on little projects and maybe move them to somewhere more permanent if they take off.
If you're worried about people abusing it, just block files over 3mb, no executables and no force pushes.
By only allowing code push and pulls through a git client, it requires specialized knowledge to use and negates any chance of idle shitposters using it to post porn or whatever.

good evening redditor, you've mistaken me with someone as i don't browse reddit

Bring PowerVR, 3dfx and Cyrix back to the market.
No news means nothing to talk, and nothing to talk about means shitposting.

Stupid fucking question.

>Ask Jow Forums how to make a website
>Make a new fucking website.

Jow Forums will kill itself eventually.
Might as well make something new and better.

Install SailfishOS

not going to happen

This, but unironically.

Why?

ah-bloo-bloo

I have been waiting for tilhis for too long

git requires name and email for every commit

Jow Forums is a big, red target. Move to a different platform so you aren't targeted.

Ban all consumerists or at the very list X/Y IS FINISHED AND BANKRUPT posters and itoddlers.

more anime

It doesn't have to be a real name or email.
There's nothing stopping you from using "Anonymous" or a psuedonym when committing.
I think even github lets you use a dummy email by default.

Of course, if you don't want to keep track of anything, you could just scramble all usernames so author data is lost.

Agree.

Ban NPCs like and gaymers.

What the fuck are we waiting for?!?!

russians and other discord promoters fucked it up

there is no fix. the russkies can hop off any of millions of IPs from their botnets

Jow Forums it's not even the main problem of this board

It has been done. 8, 420, master. They are dead

What the actual fuck are you talking about?

Your name and your ignorance suggests to me that you don't belong here.

Not him but he's talking about other *chans that people have made.

Kill yourself namefag.

>When was the last time the Jow Forums devs added any new features
The catalog view, search, archive of recent threads, are all within the past 3 years, I think.

this but unironically

found the Jow Forumstards.

learn to use filters.

Nah, if Jow Forums wasnt adjacent to Jow Forums then it would probably be fine.

Start using filters for keywords that are often used on low-effort posts. Such as: "BTFO", "BANKRUPT AND FINISHED", "How will x ever compete", "poodroid", "lincucks", "poorfags", "mac", "macbook" et cetera. Of course not all posts involving strings such as these are low quality posts but, filtering them already improves the quality of the board. Next you probably want to use Sage whenever you feel like the thread doesn't deserve a bump so eventually, a mod will end up archiving it.
