This has been something I've considered too. To be honest, I didn't put that much thought into the boards, since the main purpose was to mirror channels from my previous discord server. The way I saw it, my primary goal at first was to make a smooth onboarding experience for discord users who may be unfamiliar with textboards, because if no one from my discord came here, denpa-chan would have been a failure right from the get go. As >>13 said, for now I'm not worried about it because /all/ centralises all the posts anyway, but if it becomes a problem in the future I'm open for change.
What new ideas are you bringing to the table that others haven't already?
This is a little confusing to me. Textboard is just a format for a type of website which is already well established. I'm not sure of the need to make some sweeping change to the format since in my eyes it is already proven to work well. That being said, I do have some plans in the future for unique features to implement which I haven't seen anywhere else, but it will take time for me to learn the requisite js and php skills to actually make them, so please have patience.
anonymous texboards are not good replacements for discord servers
In a big way that's the point. It's always seemed very strange to me that everyone has a discord server. I wanted denpa-chan to replace my old discord server in the sense that it would serve as a community hub, but I do not want to replicate the discord server. >>15 This I strongly disagree with. This is a committee. I am very happy to take feedback and advice. In fact, I hope to implement more community events, votes, and other democratic features if possible. OP's advice was not low effort bait, let's try not to get defensive on reflex when there are some valid concerns here.
