I was wondering: Are there things that can be done with mods that cannot be done with extensions? I think the reason why the mods are not updated later is not that the plugins are not enough, but that the developers do not want changes.
The best extensions out there should already be a part of phpBB, not as extensions, but as options built in. I still dont understand how a forum with latest release in June 2022 does not have any SEO built in. (again, not talking about human-readable-links), and better quick reply, a thank you system that (everyone else has), a built in vanillaEmoji (no, using blob does not make it support emojis).
While Mod's should be for those who wants the extra, now its so lightweight that you have to search for forks of old extensions to get then to work, its hardly realiable when it says it supports 3.2 and was last modified 4 years ago, and support here says "most should work". I dont buy it. Let phpBB free! Ask for donations if you need help recruiting people and they need a few bucks, im sure many will contribute.
Advertising for the most courrupt hosting company in the world hardly makes phpBB free for all imo.
I was asked to proove my statements earlier, so let me do it this time, as I hate this comapny to my inner guts.
BlueHost, also called Endurance Group, owns also FastDomain and HostMonster - all happens (and only those) happens to be listed as advertisers here at phpBB. (refrence:
