What? Is it not? :O

mace486.com is a neocities site while macechan (the imageboard I just created) isn't. You can use PHP, MySQL, Apache, etc on neocities.

you cant*

Since this imageboard is intended for Neocities users kinda, I have a small suggestion. Many users here aren't familiar with how to use imageboards and I saw some of them posting with names without securing them with a tripcode. You can add info about how that works so people don't get confused.

wait, you cant use PHP on Neocities?

Sorry, I was joking :(

Banners will be fixed soon..

woot woot

I'm loving the modern yet simple design you went for

Want to make a banner for the imageboard? Fill out this form: https://forms.gle/U4MTr7daz864tR1D8

Can I use mySQL and php on it?

https://sdf.org/?faq?MYSQL I believe so but it sounds like you need to contact them (probably easier to get a vps at DigitalOcean after all)

I used to have an SDF account lmao, I think I didn't pay the 15 dollar fee or whatever.

If you’re a student you can host it on DigitalOcean for free. I can set up a server on my own account if you want.

Alright, I'll look into that. I have to setup the imageboard though some more.

Basically, you need to apply to the Github Student Pack, and then follow the steps to get 50$ at DigitalOcean

Apparently Github thinks my school email isn't actually a school email.

Ah. Then you can send me your ssh key and i’ll make you a VPS (it really is nothing since it’s free for me)

Oh wait, it's working now for some reason. Now I just have to wait for their email.

Nice! I remember my application was immediately accepted

Yep, all I have to do now is finish the basic layout of the site and then host it on digital ocean
