No, you'll need servers and enough network capacity to handle the load, an understanding and supportive hosting provider, a law degree or enough money to pay so

No, you'll need servers and enough network capacity to handle the load, an understanding and supportive hosting provider, a law degree or enough money to pay somebody with one to keep you out of court/jail/prison, a network of degenerates to provide traffic and content and/or a copy of the existing 4chan content, a stomach of steel to deal with the content moderation duties, and a moral compass so warped you think hosting degrading and illegal content is "just liberalism and freedom of speech" and not something that needs a second thought by any right-minded person.
But sure, if you have all that and the source code, you're all set. Godspeed!
- desumeku 2y agoAll content that violates the law of the United States is banned on 4chan. I don't know where you got that idea.
- matheusmoreira 2y agoI remember 8chan had literally one rule: don't violate US law.
- PaulRobinson 2y agooh i guess in that case it is legal everywhere then cool cool cool kthxbye
- jml7c5 2y ago>a copy of the existing 4chan content 4chan's content is ephemeral. Most of it is gone every few days.
- h2zizzle 2y agoThat's how it used to be (and the vast majority of early content is indeed lost). Most boards were auto-archived starting in the mid/late 2010s, though, with many archives being searchable. Some even allow ghost posting.
- winrid 2y agoIt sounds like everything was running on one server, fwiw.
