4chan - 4 channel split #481

Open sulmanshah opened 6 years ago

sulmanshah commented 6 years ago

This has been my dedicated 4chan app since the day it was released and I really don't want to adopt to anything else. As you know 4chan is now being split to 4chan and 4channel(sfw) boards, currently 4channel is redirecting back to boards.4chan.* So if you hit boards.4channel.org/g/ it redirects to boards.4chan.org/g/. which is fine.

Hiro will depreciate this redirect in the coming weeks, is there anyway we could make sure that doesn't break the beloved chanu usability i've come to grow and love.

Every time that I go out of town, Hiro changes the damn URLs...

I'll add these URL changes and post a new release next week. Do you have a link for the source to this change?

I've got this: https://www.resetera.com/threads/4chan-splintering-into-two-different-sites-4channel-sfw-boards-and-4chan-nsfw-boards.81667/

Also if you go to any sfw workboards now on your browser they auto change from boards.4chan to boards.4channel.

Thanks @Greznor you rock.

Maybe if we had a settings page or something the user could just put in the board urls and the code wouldn’t need to change? Great to see the app is still being used.

I just checked the code. The API doesn't reference the new URL. It uses "http(s)://a.4cdn.org/board/thread/threadnumber.json" to pull data. The app will work even after Hiro splits off the SFW boards.

The only thing that may break is the "open in web browser" menu option. I'll fix that in the next commit. One day... There's a few fixes I've got in the works too. The big one I'm working getting the target SDK to a little more recent version of Android.

If Hiro creates a new API for SFW/NSFW data, I'll resolve that as soon as it happens.
