that doesn't account for the level of spam on that site. Have you seen /pol/ lately? There are multiple datacenters working on that
they aren't just making nonsense posts, they're fomenting consensus and shit. This is extremely effective amongst modern internet users. It's especially effective on Reddit users
yeah, I got into it with the grocery jew a while back telling him his shtick was retarded and easily proven retarded.
His repy was basically that it doesn't matter how retarded as long as it's out there.

the guy you knew as m00t was a paid actor: Timothy Brentwood

But you agree that it's lame and nothing of note really happens anymore? I like 4chan. I've posted there for nearly 20 years now, there's some excellent discussions to be had on smaller boards especially on niche topics that you'll be hard pressed to have elsewhere without wading through some circlejerk on discord or whatever.
Yeah, /g/ and /vr/ are generally pretty nice to post on as they're not completely trannified safe spaces like most other forums for technology or retro games.

I think a good example of why 4chan jannies are so hated is when Billy Mitchell won his lawsuit several weeks ago. The rules of /v/ lay out that it is a board discussing video games and video game culture. Well, Billy Mitchell is clearly a major figure in video game culture, and this was a topic that a lot of people wanted to discuss. Jannies were patrolling the board deleting anything that looked like a Billy Mitchell thread
here's an image of Chelsea Van Valkenberg, AKA Zoe Quinn, at the bar with a friend of hers who was a /v/ janny at the time samefagging her own thread in 2014chelsea1.webp
 
Updating software stacks isn't trivial. You often need to go in and rewrite code to work with the newer stuff and this is especially true on PHP where even minor version bumps can completely break common libraries.
Don't forget it's a mess and no one has really worked on it in a decade, upgrading one thing and breaking something somewhere else with no one who has a deep understanding of how it works/experience with it is hellish.
Rewriting from scratch would be significantly easier, either way I don't expect to see anything for months.

I assume it'll be sold unless hiro finds retards willing to put in a ton of work for free

Hey Faggots,
My name is John, and I hate every single one of you. All of you are fat, retarded, no-lifes who spend every second of their day looking at stupid ass pictures. You are everything bad in the world. Honestly, have any of you ever gotten any pussy? I mean, I guess it's fun making fun of people because of your own insecurities, but you all take to a whole new level. This is even worse than jerking off to pictures on facebook.
Don't be a stranger. Just hit me with your best shot. I'm pretty much perfect. I was captain of the football team, and starter on my basketball team. What sports do you play, other than "jack off to naked drawn Japanese people"? I also get straight A's, and have a banging hot girlfriend (She just blew me; raisin was SO cash). You are all faggots who should just kill yourselves. Thanks for listening.

Hiro leans heavily on his "guy who owns 4chan" identity in the JP world because it gives him credibility when talking about US politics (ala "I'm the guy who owns the site that got drumpf elected so I know what the waito piggus are thinking, trust me guys")

tbh I never got the impression it was about the money for him. As long as 4chan can remain cashflow neutral, he'll probably keep it around.
