Pic related was posted on reddit recently.
For anyone unaware, reddit recently allowed users of some communities to host images directly on reddit. They're now expanding it to the entire SFW part of the site.
You read that right, 20mb image limit and 100mb gif limit.
When is 4chan going to catch up to the rest of the Internet? What's the limit here? Still a pitiful 3mb?
What's wrong with that limit?
>>55191475
4chan has always been a few steps behind. There hasn't been a major UX change on this site since it began.
Why do you need such high resolution when all you do is shitpost?
>>55191475
if you like reddit so much, the solution is obvious
If 4chan caught up to the entire internet you'd have google analytics, 16 trackers for mouse movement and clicks to collect data used to design new features, catalog bulit as a single page application in half-stable Angular 2, a 2000 line minified script calculating the right banner based on user preferences collected in cookiesand 15 CSS keyframe animations for every single action.
fuck off
Wew, I'd be able to shitpost at over 3MB/p !
>>55191475
4chan is trash and that is what makes 4chan, 4chan.
>>55191475
Are we getting raided or something?
>>55191475
4chan will catch up when it gets that same amount of traffic.
>>55191475
>allow hosting of images
>on a site that actively sensors wrong-think
>shadow bans users for wrong-speak
Who gives a flying titty-fuck? Reddit must die a horrible death. The fucking text in the image speaks like some retarded woman to a child. FUCK
>>55191475
>20 MB worth of CP embedded into images
Brah.
>>55191518
/wsg/, /gif/, /tv/ and /hr/ could use a larger file size limit
>>55191585
I think you might just have the mind of a child.
>>55191589
Fantastic burn there m8. Got any more?
>>55191618
You are seething with rage right now. I suggest turning off the screen for 10 minutes.
>>55191475
I think the limits should be stricter here, especially PNG files should have their own limit.
They just waste everyones bandwidth.
>>55191626
Keep going bro. More
Why are you posting this here? We don't give a fuck.
>>55191697
You cared enough to respond.
>>55191510
In particular the mobile site is fucking horrendous.
Gee maybe when 4chan is owned by Conde Nast.
If Reddit is so good why don't you stay there
>>55191750
What's wrong with imgur?
>>55191764
sjw cancer
>>55191475
I don't give a shit. If you haven't noticed, this site is a crude image board, I don't give a fuck about the image caps. Fuck off reddit.
>>55191776
so is reddit
>>55191475
>100mb gifs
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaa
>>55191787
You cared enough to make an emotion filled post.
Why can't you all admit that Reddit is just so much better than 4chan?
>>55191475
Good. If the images are too big to post on 4chan, maybe the redditors will finally stop posting here.
>>55191510
Why change for the sake of change?
So they're basically stabbing the imgur founder in the back?
>>55191824
as long as they have usernames and a votingsystem reddit will always be shit
>>55191824
4chan's anonymity is the single reason it'll be always better than Reddit.
>>55192059
good
i hope those memeing niggers go bankrupt
>>55192067
And the stupid tree structure for posts
>>55192059
imgur has its own discussion boards too. The two sites have been mostly independent for years aside from imgur acting as reddit's imageshack/bitch
>>55191475
Reddit generates money, 4chan doesn't (ad revenue on here is pitiful because who wants to advertise on 4chan and be associated with the degeneracy here?)
That's why Reddit can afford to do things like that and 4chan can't
>100mb gifs
What the actual fuck?
>>55192125
Man I can't see any justifiable reason for that limit. The only way you can use that much is if you're basically posting video clips and why the fuck would you do that and not use youtube? Why doesn't reddit just allow video uploads?
reddit has one image per thread
4chan can have one image per post
so one 20MB image vs 500 20MB images.
get it?
>>55192100
yup
god I wish reddit fucked off.
>>55191510
Fucking good.
I love Futaba. If japmoot changes the UI, I'd have nowhere else to go, every other website UI gives my baby duck syndrome.
Also
>make image upload limit ridiculously high, even though you can barely afford to host the website as is
>stifle minimalist creativity and image optimization
No thanks.

Go for it based retard. Show them the folly of their ways.
>>55192233
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>55192233
Problem is not reddit itself. Its it's users are retarded as fuck
>>55192240
>>55192280
>Replying to obvious bait
> only 4chan Pass users will be able to vote.
what
>>55192299
b8 is starting to get blurred nowadays. I honestly can't tell if Poe's law is taking hold or there are genuine lump wristed, spoonfeed me tier newfags these days.
No matter what, I feel that the best thing to do is to respond in hostility, cause if I go with the joke I'll end up encouraging people who actually think it's true.
can 4chan just not strip shit like embedded ICCs first?
boards like /hr/ are a complete joke until they stop doing that, even.
>>55192290
The voting system does encourage dumb users, though
>>55191831
So what? Let them be retards in their little contained cancer space
>>55192308
Well
Fuck
>will literally be able to count the number of votes for any given banner on your hands
>>55191764
It's pointless and inconvenient
>>55191586
>not embedding 100MB of CP into a gif
>>55192358
If only they stayed there
>>55191475
Other imageboards have had similar limits for years
>>55191510
eh i dont really mind the UX, and im usually quite critical of stuff like that
you can improve a lot of the usability with script extensions and get/make a custom css so it looks good
making major changes would just add unnecessary bloat
>>55191475
Will this remove retards from here? That would be great.
>nobody mentions that they only host the single image the OP posts
kek
>different size limits for different formats
exactly how retarded are they
>>55191475
did rebbit change its look to look like WhatsApp?
>>55191588
/tv/ doesn't, and everywhere else mentioned has a higher file size. /w/ and /wg/ also have a higher file size too.
>>55192458
>nobody mentions that they only host the single image the OP posts
>20 mb image
>100 mb gif
explain where you think it is ok to do such stupid shit?
if you got a video there are websites for that without limit which you can link to that are easy to integrate like youtube
if you got a 20mb image thats normaly archive quality for normy users
and nobody needs a 2400x2160 600DPI image of your anus
>>55191824
It is better. Maybe you should go back to redfit and never come here again, maybe?
Those fuckers are converting gifs to mp4 instead of webm.
>>55192790
they'll be converting them to gif now lmao
>>55191510
thats a good thing tho...
>>55191540

Why fix what isn't broken?
>>55191510
And?
Fuck you I don't want 4chan to become a bloated javascript site that hogs all of my memory like every other site on the fucking planet.
If you do want to rice it just use .css
>>55192582
high-res porn subreddits?
>>55191510
>reddit gets a feature 4chan has had since day 1
>"how come reddit gets updates and not us!"
>>55191475
All this really does is tell me reddit wants the 4chan audience. Also having filesize limits that high is going to be hell on their bandwidth.
4chan's filesize limits date back to moot's decisions on it, mostly having a healthy mix of having the filesize limit just high enough for proper images to be uploaded, while not wasting too much bandwidth and storage space.
Lastly, we don't care, take your reddit cancer and fuck off.
>>55192125
Sometimes google points me at imgur. They literally use GIF for video instead of webm. As a side effect you're looking at GIFs in the 10, 15, 20 meg file size range. I don't know if imgur is it's own entity or still a part of reddit, but they've gone full retard on a tech level.
>>55191716
Get clover. Problem solved. Pleb.
>>55193675
Putting v at the end of gif converts them to something like webm. Most "gifs" you see on imgur these days are that.
>>55191475
>100mb gifs
Faggotry from the middle ages.
>100MB for a fucking GIF
>enough for a 10 minute sub DVD quality webm with audio
And here we are on 4chin where the webm limit gets reduced from 4 to 3.
>>55195010
Are you suggesting merely a webm with a different extension or just a hack job media container that's compatible?
>>55192100
The branching comments aren't bad without the points. It's the point system that kills diversity of expression
>>55195550
What is it 150 images per thread? Fucking kill yourself.
>>55192103
Also imgur users who don't realize that reddit exists lmao. They're honestly lretty cucked with their 140 character limit, almost like Twitter.
>>55192229
Imagine if this were the other way around and someone on Reddit said "a larger image file size limit would stifle minimalism and image optimization". Those are the words of a brainwashed cuck.
>>55197009
Large filesizes are retarded from an economic perspective, but you also have to think about how users use those file sizes creatively.
No matter who says it, it's still fucking true. If our filesizes suddenly jumped to 100 MB, I'd be fucking scared. It'd mean that there would be less original content than there is nowadays, and more derivative content- ie stuff that comes straight from other sources.
>calling someone a cuck cause they have different opinions of file limits
No one's telling you not to upload your shit to a file-sharing website and then post the links, you nigger.
>>55192229
Go to other board then.
>>55191510
You're forgetting that one day g00k made 4chan look like Google+ for April fools. That counts as a redesign
100 MB gif? One hundred MEGS?
5 meg webm or less will beat this and it's 60+ FPS video. video compression was invented in what, late 90s? time to drop the 80s standards
>>55192339

>Supporting Germany

>>55191475
why are you trying to make 4chan more like reddit?
why are you going to reddit in the first place?
>>55192117
im sure 70% of 4chan uses ad blockers because the ad shown when a threat gets archived is really cancerous
>>55191588
gif and wsg have a 4MB filesize limit for webms.
I would like to see it increased to 10MB.
>>55191716
>In particular the mobile site is fucking horrendous.
There's no point in improving it since the apps handle it just fine
>>55191510

If you two spent more time learning how GIMP, pngcrush, & ffmpeg work and less time being fucking retarded this wouldn't be an issue.
But you don't and that means you're forever limited to reposting images someone smarter than you optimized in the first place.
That's your place right now. Know you place, fuckwits.
>>55191555
your trips means its time to invade. ill inform /b/
>>55191588
no they dont.
>>55191475
You need to go back
>>55198154
Aren't they just advertisements from Jlist?
I actually roll with my adblocker off here cause the ads are non-instrusive and they make me laugh a bit. Except the ones that advertise 4chan/news like fuck if that gets updated.
>>55195550

Enlighten then, omniscious.
I for one, don't really give a shit. Let Reddit take all the braindead media consumers from this site.
>>55193076
Yeah, what the fuck is that? If you uploaded a 20MB image, there's no way that it could get to the front page, because people would wait around 3 seconds for the image to load, see how big it is, then close the image and scroll down to look at another post.
100MB for gifs is absurd, if it doesn't fit in a 20MB WebM you should probably consider using YouTube.
>>55198289
>Just reduce the quality
Leave.
>>55198410
*tips fedora*
>>55198289
Most WebMs that people upload here look like ass.
AV1 will save us. Not VP9, because i'm sure that by the time that Hiroshima Nagasaki gets around to enable it, AV1 will already be out.
>>55198508
Not media consumers in that sense, m8.
I mean the people who come here just to collect memes. The ones who don't even participate in this community. Fuck 'em.
>hey guys this site does something better, why are you still posting here
>you should really be posting there
>guys
kill yourself.
Can I post things like this on leldit
>>55198699
>all SFW communities
I imagine not.
You think I want to see a 10mb jpg of some faggots desktop or blurry ass picture of a battle station? No
Reddit is cocks anyway, if you are not in there hivemind you are banned. Reddit does not respect my freedoms.
>>55198768
I'm pressing the circle and it's not doing anything. pls help, I want to stand firm with nep
Reminder that reddit is also FOSS and 4chan is not.
>>55198699
Yes but you just can't host the image there.
There are plenty of Asian porn communities on reddit.

Ylilauta has allowed .mp4 uploads for a long time now and has a 10mb filesize limit. There's a lot of videos ripped straight from jewtube posted there
>100mb gif
I though gifs were finally dying but these pieces of shit are getting more popular thanks to facebook EMBEDDING A GIF SEARCHER IN MESSENGER WTF

It already has all of those.Atleast you can use reddit without Google botnet but you can't use 4chan with Google botnet disabled

Can anyone link to more than 4 or so 50+MB gif files online?
Just curious.

Fucking riddance.

100mb is max bloat, you can literally stream porn matching this file size
>>55198929
this desu
those thai whore porn videos also puzzle me. the guy never uses a condom ... does he have a death wish, or is he already infected with all the STDs?
On /b/ people used to encode child pornography as .jpg and then upload it.
With a limit of 2MB or so this would be harder to do.
