The sadest part of Gamergate 2 is that there is no cool imageboard to go to since 4chan is even gayer than 2014 and 8chan is even more pedophilic.
it sucks that alot of old hangouts are dead but its only gotten more attention and less wider public pushback.
>no halfchan
>no fullchan
>no kiwifarms
<the rest of the old Internet is dead as well
Please don't blackpill me, complete death of the old Internet is something I would have troubles coping with. It's already as bad as it is.
The only fun places on the web right now are basically the farms and the sharty, and that isn't much.
The rest of offshoots are too small to be meaningful in any other way.
Fediverse (despite Null shilling it since 2019 or so) still somehow feels empty, social medias are a joke, and I cannot name any general forums that aren't outright cancerous, mentally retared,and rabid like reddit, or worse.
imageboards were always meant to either be small and niche or inoffensive and not gaining attention of spammers or raiders. at a certain size you cant hide it and itll be flooded with suboptimal tools to stem the flood. its why i dont actually mind the population decrease of the post 8chan altchans beyond the effect it was supposed to have in culling a free internet. which seems to be backfiring with how much more popular anti sjw stuff is now even if specific centers for it are declining.Imageboards simply can't work anymore. There's no point in trying. Bots have been filling out captchas since 2017. Eleventy trillion BBC spam posts per second 24/7 is not human behavior. Its automated.
