Does anyone know where the majority of the 4chan userbase has moved to? I'd assume the sharty, but I'm interested to know if there are any other alt-chans that are active.
 
I don't like racists.
What you might not realize is that in countries where what you might consider minorities are in the majority, racism is the default state of mind. What you're really saying is that you hate billions of non-white people because they refuse to comply with your Western cultural norms.

tl;dr you are a racist (but not the good kind)
kill yourself
 
made an account here because I need my online interaction. why are people so resentful of 4chan? I don't use this site, reddit, soyjak, etc, but I don't hate them or want them taken down or their posters miserable. I just didn't think about them at all. don't care about the jannies, mods, or hack drama, I just want 4chan back so I can shitpost
4chan has been a decade pluspass its prime. Just like you don't let a racing horse with a broken leg to go on anymore, 4chan needs to be put down for something else.

8chan Moe seems to have the most refugees based off of raw numbers. A few went to 7chan but if the Sharty is first place, then Moe is secondIMG_2204.webp

/g/ had eleven (11) people moderating the board. and they were still slow to react to illegal shit the proxy fuckers were posting.

those FAGGOTS spent ALL FUCKING DAY jerkin each other off in /aicg/.
They were pretty quick to shut down home servers and networking discussions tho. I hope all of /g/'s mods get raped by a pack of feral niggers. Especially Jay Irwin Lewis.
 
How likely is a balkanization of the site if/when it does come back? Like /pol/ and /lgbt/ get their own containment domains (sorta how the 4chan/4channel thing worked but on a greater scale) and the hobby boards also get a site.
The reality of this is that the website staff is so lazy they’ll keep the popular boards up while nixxing your niche hobbyist board. /pw/ /vg/ /ck/ the fiefdoms with the most jannies will stay.

I have used 4chan for a long time. yes it's shit now, but what's the alternative? this place?
Yes. Take it from another 4Chan refugee (earlier one, left of my own accord) there is no better site really, Anything you want to discuss is here outside of goonery and porn is present and has better discussion. If what you want to talk about is not present, there's the handy dandy Create Thread button.
 
people who like their country signing up to the military when it's controlled by a more right wing government isnt strange, or bad
People signing up to die for Israel instead of being ready to fight for their own is always bad. Doubly so when you remember that those US of A they're dying for
  1. Is still the same one guilty of all the crimes against its citizens like Waco, the corona incident, the Bundy Ranch shit, and deliberate perversions of justice in cases like Derek Chauvin, Daniel Penny, the McMichaels and others
  2. Is likely to fall back into Democrat hands 4 years later unless Trump takes some drastic measures to prevent that.
 
You've either not been on 4ch for long enough to remember the quality and strengths of the place, or you're part of the niggercattle that engaged thoughtlessly with shills, bots, slide threads, and contributed to the decay of what was once the best place on the internet in relation to its scale.
no it's just that most people genuinely don't care about the innerworkings of their shitpost website or ever think about jannies, just like in real life
 
It's pretty hilarious given how easy it is to find the actual leaked info how many people are still parroting the "there were a bunch of .gov emails" and "israel was the top posting country" misinfo across the web, and even here. And we've known for years that 4chan works with the feds in some capacity, how else would they have stayed up in the early days with how much CSM was posted there? This thread, since the hack, is flooded, hard to parse. It's like a couple hundred pages of people being MATI about 4chan and its moderation, and maybe a few pages total of actual info from this hack. Here are some cliff notes / TL;DR
  • The hacker was a sharty user, he had complete access to the workings of 4chan through global user priviliges but seems to have tipped his hand shitposting with hiro's capcode instead of doing something funnier or more destructive, then the site got kill switched
    • he claims to have gained access via a lack of security measures against uploading malicious code as a .pdf on boards where pdf uploads are allowed
    • he mentioned that he won't leak/doesn't have 4chan pass info
  • 4chan's code was leaked and it is very predictably a mess and mostly very old, some people (retards) are surprised by this
  • janitor, mod, and admin emails, usernames, hashed passwords, and last IPs were leaked
  • screenshots of the mod and admin interface got posted
  • /j/ got leaked, again, and archived
  • it was confirmed that janitors have assigned boards, again
  • stuff from the 4chan staff discord got leaked, again
  • a couple of farmers and shartiers who claim former 4chan janitor status talked about how the system works, including that janitors don't ban people or have access to report info such as IPs, they send requests to a mod queue and delete stuff
  • some plausible phonebooking of those who were retarded enough to use personal emails, but also a some schizo tier reaching
    • a few .edu emails were found
    • no .gov emails, this rumor comes from idiots seeing an ESLpost that says "gov names" and thinking it meant "gov emails" and the general internet public running with that
  • some IPs were run through a tool that shows what torrents that IP is downloading, but some of the IPs that this was done to are VPNs
  • IPs showed that most of the janitors and mods seem to be in the US and Asia
  • a tech journo wrote an article about the hack which was zero-info slop
  • all of this got posted on sharty and farmers dutifully archived it here
  • chicken jockey was the last thing posted before it went down
 
I have used 4chan for a long time. yes it's shit now, but what's the alternative? this place?
I think so, there's just nowhere else that's not dead & isn't completely censored. Funny how the fucking CWCki Forum is shaping up to be 4chan's replacement.

Yes. Other places ban for way more petty reasons, and this is one of the few places that discusses music without coomer shit.
 
4chan jannies and pedos having their LinkedIn and gmails leaked is chefs kiss. They are truly retarded.
Happy Easter frens!
