Ideas for ILX

Can we auto-replace "The Discourse" with "DUMPLINGS!!"

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Can we auto-replace "The 1975" with "BALLOON”?!

can we auto-replace "taibbi" with "proxy/dns translation layer"?

Is there a way to see which threads are most bookmarked? Sitewide and by board?

Sitewide:

1. outbreak! (ebola, sars, coronavirus, etc)
2. Netflix Watch Instantly Recommendation Thread
3. Ongoing U.S Police Brutality and Corruption Discussion Thread
4. pitchfork is dumb (#34985859340293849494 in a series.)
5. why do i hate that artist thing that people keep posting on my facebook so much? why am i such a jerk?
6. so not gonna happen
7. everybody on ilx complains about reddit
8. zing
9. Mostly Apolitical Thread for Discussing/Venting our Rational/Irrational COVID-19 Fears and Experiences in 2020
10. Another fucking spree shooting. Great.

lol i think i've got one of those

7/10 for me

can we implement #onethread?

i used to browse by board, then i moved to site new answers, and now i basically just sift through my neverending series of bookmarks. it's amazing, and tbh i'd do it for far less than the $35/hour i'm getting paid right now

emojis and #onethread

💁🏻‍♂️

0/10 for me

re: one thread

I think what you’re talking about is a chatroom

Maybe just make an ILX discord or IRC channel?

9/10

too many bookmarks, anxiety at having been away for 24-48 hours and returning to see what looks like a page of the phone book

^one reason I would love a reordering feature!

I would be okay w/ letting some bookmarks fester at the bottom of a list, but arranged as they are I have some kind of disorder which compels me to keep clearing them out

let's just fire up mIRC and create a DALnet chat room.

also change who the AOPs are each day, and every time someone chats about the secret forbidden topic, they're permabanned for the day.

discord

Is there a publicly accessible API? If people really want to test what it would be like, I bet it wouldn't be hard to build a Discord bot that just relays posts into a discord channel in near-real time. Probably wouldn't have functionality to post back to the website, but the bot could include the link to the thread so if you want to reply in-thread, you can click on it and post. Otherwise, if you would like to just comment in the "single thread only", you can just chat in Discord as the posts roll by.

If you have true interest in an ILX chatroom, I encourage you to visit poxyfule.slack.com

There is already an ILX discord

I just like being part of the #onethread movement

We wait, an ILX slack, I meant. Same thing

I bet there's multiple channels in there also

See my post above

maybe just create a thread called #onethread ???

#onechannel

stet I'm pretty web design illiterate so I don't really know what the hurdles are to almost any of these (excellent) improvements you've been making

maybe Nas will do a commercial for this one thread initiative to the tune of One Mic

Maybe just make an ILX discord or IRC channel?

Lol just catching up don’t mind me

Actually can't get into the Slack. Can't authenticate.

OH OH IT SUPPORT TIME

let's fucking do this shit

post on the #onethread instead

xxps

poxyfule.slack.com

"Sorry, you entered an incorrect email or password," trying to login using my gmail account. Do I need to be given access?

It's only for the cool kids

One can only aspire

I don’t know how it works tbf

no one does

Maybe just make an ILX discord or IRC channel?

ilx drinking game:

take a drink whenever someone suggests a discord

take two whenever someone points out there's already an ilx slack so really, why would anyone need an ilx discord? slack is really popular with the kids, and with "the kids" i mean "people who are for some reason forced to use it for work"

take three when someone suggests the #onethread

four for emojis

Five for when someone suggests starting such a thread without actually going through with it.

If a Slack admin gets around to it, would love an invite to the server. Let me know if you need my email address, or if it can be sent via ilxmail

should be able to join off this link

Do we take a drink when someone suggests an "I Love Politics" borad?

Ok, y'all are getting unnecessarily harsh now

🤷🏻‍♂️
