The reason why uploading media directly to boards is not possible, is because 5chan is a client for the Bitsocial protocol, which is text-only
|
||||
(including links, from which media is embedded by clients). However, Plebbit uses IPFS, so in theory it could let users upload media to the subplebbit
|
||||
(board) owner's IPFS node, and then post the direct IPFS link for the media. This is not enabled because loading media from IPFS is extremely slow at
|
||||
the moment (because most people have slow internet).

|

Unlike traditional imageboards, 5chan does <i>not</i> allow to quote more than one post at a time. You can only reply to one post at a time. This is
|
||||
because 5chan is a client for the Bitsocial protocol, which is designed to be an alternative to Reddit-like social media, in which you can only reply to
|
||||
one post at a time.
|
||||
<br />
|
||||
<br />
|
||||
Further, post numbers are not possible on 5chan, because Plebbit is fully decentralized (serverless) using IPFS, meaning there is no central database to
|
||||
store post numbers, and it uses CIDs to load posts directly. Retrieving the CID from an hypothetical post number from the single board's database would
|
||||
be far too expensive for the node to calculate.
|
||||
<br />
|
||||
<br />
|
||||
To quote a specific post by its number, use the {"'>>'"}number syntax (ex. "{'>>'}" followed by the post number). Clicking a post's number link will
|
||||
automatically open the reply box with the quote reference inserted for you. You can also select text in a post and then click reply to auto-quote the
|
||||
selected text.

|

Yes. You can reference multiple posts in a single reply by using multiple {"'>>'"}number quotes (ex. "{'>>'}" followed by a post number, one per line).
|
||||
While the reply modal is open, clicking another post's number link will insert an additional quote reference at the cursor position.
