No one said it would be easy. I don't expect someone to sacrifice their job for a side hustle/hobby.
I think the bigger issue is what stays and what goes during any migration.
Maybe Kyle can put it to a vote - he can propose a few things.
Examples
A. Keep everything the same - no cost
B. Keep everything and migrate to a superior system. Cost 20K and 2 months
C. Toss certain things and delete other very old stuff. Cost 10k and 1 month
With 1 million tables, there are a massive amount of old threads and data that may have little to no replies. Shit can them.
Photos: massive amounts and establish a cut off for them. Maybe no photos older than 5 years.
It's not really bitching about the downtime as much as all the time spent bitching about the down time and no clear path after years.
Maybe Kyle can just say, **** it. It is was it is, so deal with it. I got no problem with that.
He can ask for volunteers or donations or show a plan so we can all help.
I'm not sure what he wants to make out of a new site. Building a complete site from scratch? Plugging some holes? Redevelop current site?
CP members are nothing short of shocking when it comes to pitching in. Just ask and maybe he might be surprised at all the help he gets.
