This is not generally asking @majestrate but anyone who can do the following:

  • A professional looking theme (like Bootstrap - that doesn't look like it came from the shithole that is chan*.
  • Easier way to configure feeds (also easier docs)
  • Better configuration panel
  • Better configuration file (with comments)
  • Remove the old NNTP (2nd server) from the config file.

"agree, also needs more detail, better in what way?" Rename the parameter names, they could be way better. Don't abbreviate and if you need to then use a comment to explain what that parameter does and it's states (0or 1)

Hello 😃

Although this seems like an awesome project, and I would love to help, I'm a bit too busy with exams at the moment. Sorry 😕
I might be able to help out sometime in the future, however.

I wanted to know. About the whole thing of the NNTP server and that clients can spam. Should there maybe be a limit on how many posts can be made from an NNTP client.

This would probably mean that two NNTP servers should run.

The first NNTP server for the actual message propagation. (The one that talks to other Chan's)

And the second NNTP server for clients to connect to with a configurable post limit from the same IP of something like that.

possibly but it's always possible to "fake" a few things with the current sync stuff. you could always pretend to be another nntp server instead of a newsreader that posts.

I am of the opinion that IP based limits are futile in the long run.
