I wouldn't use any javascript framework or PHP. I think Rust would be overkill and Java is brimstoned.
I personally would use Go and "server render" the pages using Go's templating language and then add a bit of javascript to improve usability (if possible I'd try making the website usable without javascript).

>>6867React has a fucking stupid render model, I'd pick one that can dynamically load libs instead of downloading the whole framework like react does
â„–6889[Quote]
Anyways I'd use Postgres and Go for backend and actually pentest raisin, I'd move from physical boxes to a L1 hypervisor setup and a threadripper (Xen or KVM works) and update the UI with sharty features. I'd honestly keep the current FreeBSD but update it to current and remember to keep it updated (The hypervisor system gives me redundancy)
Throw that raisin on a CDN with a backup cluster and source code snapshots and you have something that a site for millions of users should actually run
â„–6894[Quote]
>>5999 (OP)Rust for the backend, or GO
svelte for the front end
â„–6899[Quote]
>>6887I don't like it either, its just what I am most familiar with
That being said, has anybody here tried out doing raisin with webcomponents and the shadow DOM? It kinda looks like client-side templating.

>>5999 (OP)HTMX – for Frontend Interactivity
No heavy JS frameworks
Declarative HTML-driven UI
Perfect for thread replies, inline expanding, auto-refreshing content, etc.
Built-in support for:
Polling (hx-get + hx-swap)
WebSockets
CSRF headers
Progressive enhancement
—
Go (Golang) – for Backend
Compiled, fast, and secure
Static types reduce runtime bugs
Excellent standard lib (no bloated dependencies)
Very easy to write secure code (if you follow the basics)
Great for writing microservices or a monolith
Framework options:
chi (lightweight router with middleware)
fiber (Express-like, high-performance)
echo (easy, batteries-included)
—
Database
PostgreSQL still recommended
Use sqlc or gorm (if you want an ORM, though raw SQL with sqlx is common and fast)
Prepared statements only
—
File Storage
Local filesystem (for small-scale), or S3/MinIO for scaling
Serve files through Go or directly via CDN
—
Security Tips
Use html/template – auto-escapes output
Sanitize inputs on post creation (no raw HTML from users)
Set CSP headers
Rate limit endpoints using middleware (e.g., Go middleware or reverse proxy like Caddy/nginx)
Use Go’s built-in net/http + htmx headers to check request source
—
Moderation & Abuse Mitigation
HTMX makes it easy to do inline moderation tools (e.g., mod buttons that trigger POSTs via hx-post)
Pair with Go workers for spam checks, rate limiting, auto-bans, etc.

one of the c++ server libraries. The content of chans is disposable and ever changing, store it all in memory in binary. Reason: familiarity and there is not much $ to run things, so keep things efficient. Where a db is needed use postgress.

the bigger question is features. kyc kills the chan space - and a lot of other stuff - by design. I'd be all up for anonymous financing by javascript crypto mining - keep a local counter up that lets you know when you have enough credits to post. Even just a proof-of-work scheme might lay waste to spam. Push the concept far enough, and you need credits to refresh the page itself. It would limit phone posting, unless you can xfer credits to yourself - or its all just your hash. Is anybody already doing this?
I like chan culture, but no, way no how are any of you assholes getting my cc#.
There needs to be much more innovation in the space. Clearly the user base has the technical chops and creativity. Maybe chan sw needs to be developed open source and just picked up and tweaked by sites? 4chan running on such an obsolete stack is sad.
â„–10093[Quote]
Rust, Axum, HTMX, filesystem for images, keep text of posts in memory (alongside persistence to a write-only log for reloading from if the machine crashes).
