Chan Thread Watch seems to have stopped working on 4chan.

Anyone have some idea on a fix? (Or an alternative app?)

It's still working on other sites. (like 7chan, and p4c)

I would have suggested to just wait it out till its creator fixes it, but the project's page at https://sites.google.com/site/chanthreadwatch/ reads "Chan Thread Watch is considered feature complete so I will likely not implement feature requests..." But it also mentions an email; so perhaps implore to the creator to keep updating it? That could be a problem, because seems like 4chan updates or changes its software or frontend-site with higher frequency than most other *chans, and keeping up with that is difficult.

Personally, among the small list of other similar software I've tried, this one is the better one.
And to anyone who brings some other alternative, consider how the OP is not just focused on the 4chan-only option, but it is focused on the general usability on other *chans.

OP here, I found a solution (its more of a compromise)

Xchan 2.5 works as a thread watcher, but only for 4chan. So I use CTW and Xchan together.

Not the most eloquent solution, but it works for what I need.

Hope this helps anyone else that had the same problem (and please feel free to post any other suggestions)

Thanks.

Yeah, looks like Xchan 2.5b is going to be the last version and its no longer compatible with 4chan.

the good news is that someone has made an unofficial update to Chan Thread Watch.

you can find that here. https://github.com/SuperGouge/ChanThreadWatch

its seems to work well with 4chan and 7chan.
