fchan, short for FChannel, is a federated image board based on ActivityPub, a protocol which allows social sites like social media and image boards to be decentralized. Boards across sites which are on the opposite sides of the Globe can be connected and feeds can be shared or followed. It pulls likeness from other chans for ease of familiarity and use.

There are no external libraries used by the frontend, just basic selection of DOM elements and modifying their styling. Perhaps (You) could contribute a frontend that uses no JavaScript?
Sequential ID numbers have run their course, random base36 is better.
