I made a imageboard (no users yet) but i am trying to advertise my imageboard. It kind of fun figuring out cool stuff i could do in html. I am glad i found a way to host a imageboard.
I can put a AD on my website but what is the link?
That is awesome!
One thing to keep in mind that you are responsible for all content on your website. If a user uploads something against InfinityFrees terms of service, you will be held liable for that.

On the same note the automatic checks don’t actually know if the contents are visible or not. They just care that it’s in the directory.
So even if an image is held for moderation, the sweeper could still flag it.

Link to my website is
Markusparty.page.gd
how do i make sure that never happens
Given the type of site you’ve made. Stay on top of deleting anything that breaches the TOC’s and hope that no one uploads anything too bad.

You can’t. I recommend using a service that is more receptive to certain types of media.
I mean you might be able to do some sort of thing where you store new images in an encrypted format only you can see until you manually approve them - since the system cannot check it if it’s encrypted. I imagine this is a feature you would have to build out yourself though since most holding periods don’t store the file in an encrypted manner.

Maybe host a small python or Php server at home and make it host the images and use a service to forward it to a free website then your website will post that website for image and if it find the image it will forward. Or a faster way is encrypted like Greenreader9 said.
Forwarding Service : You use a tool like Cloudflare Tunnel or n*****.
For images, i think it is quite easy to convert it into base64 and save it in database, and then you write some code to convert b64 to images back and manually approve it and write more code to make the image save on server (or just keep it in database if you want, the database limit is very generous so you dont need to worry much about hitting the limit)
Quite the contrary, storing images as base64 in the database could quickly hit the CPU limit, the SQL limit, the database storage limit… Basically all kinds of limits you could name

well if that the case then good old vercel or render can help lol
Based on my knowledge of how the content detection works, I wouldn’t be too worried about unapproved content getting flagged. I think the system is set up in a way that that won’t be an issue. I’m pretty sure that it mainly focuses on text content (like malicious code and deceptive messages), not image content. So long as we don’t get abuse reports about harmful content on your website, you’re probably safe.
Saving images to the database is always a bad idea, and this time is no exception. Hosting the images externally is an option, but hosting at home seems a bit unpractical. After all, if hosting from home is an option, why get a web hosting account at all?
