You ever notice how memes nowadays on popular social media such as youtube twitter reddit etc. are weekly and die in a week, yet 4cuck users still used the same memes from eras such as 2018 and 2020?

Most social media - TikTok, Facebook, Instagram, Youtube - has a very short information half life combined with algorithms that push anything that drives engagement. On a forum or image board the only way to encounter a certain groups culture is to actually visit that board/thread or interact with someone from that board/thread who exposes you to their board's culture. Memes can become very localized and stable in this environment. There's less interference in general.

On social media whatever drives engagement the quickest is pushed. If a random 9 second video is shared among a small group, the algorithm will decide to push to everyone who shares characteristics of the people in that group, and if that video continues to drive engagement it'll push it to broader and broader demographics. This is the reason why you see obscure 10 year old youtube videos recommended to a large amount of people in a short period of time. This means there is no way for things to stick around. Eventually some other thing will catch that wave and whatever everyone was watching last week will be forgotten.

On imageboards and forums what you see is driven by user's interaction with other users. On social media what you see is driven by the algorithm's evaluation of your demographic profile and what your demographic is likely to watch. You have much less control over what content you will end up watching when you go onto Instagram, but it is what the algorithm thinks that you as [sex] [age] [location] [profile] would want to watch

1711053706416407.gifOnce it's back online the shitposting will be legendary, even if no jannie offed himself they won't be able to contain it. Forbidden power of multithread shitposting will be unleashed, squads of retardvans will do drive-bys giving each board a broadside, AIs that are trained on retardation will unleash a plague upon the interwebs. The catalogue will look like a containment breach in progress and you know Second Trumpet will be rocking the speakers. I am genuinely excited to see the meltdown.

The error page has been replaced.

Ah good, after a week they figured out how to change the error page!

The normal part of my brain thinks that they are working hard to get the site up so they don't loose to many people to alt sites and people start canceling their 4CHAN+battle passes.

the /pol/ part of me...
THINKS THAT THE NIGGGER JEW KIKES AT THE IDF HAVE INJECTED 6 MILLION SHEKLES INTO THE DEVELOPMENT OF 4QUEER IN ORDER TO KEEP ALL THE UPPITY GOY ADDICTED TO BLACK COCK AND HAVING THEIR OPIONOS SPOON FED BY THE GLORYIUS STATE OF ISRALE!!!! :politisperg:🇮🇱

There's been a whole lot of "dude i used to be a 4channer but omg KF opened my eyes" refugees in here. It's incredibly fake

Mine's genuine. I've blocked a bunch of schizos, and just this thread, the conversation alone is so different. I was a /v/irgin, and the amount of bullshit posted there was insane and I didn't think anything of it. With no IDs or IP counter, it was out of control. There were so many demoralization and shill campaigns going on.

I enjoy this site and I’ve always lurked, but I don’t think I could ever use it as a replacement for 4chan. I guess it’s because there’s a similar sentiment of being able to say whatever you want and be a dumbass, so I can understand

It’s weird, but I can’t relate with a lot of you who are losing attachment to the site, I still find myself trying to load it every few hours hoping to see it back online. I’ve been a daily user of that shithole for 17 years at this point, and despite it going downhill thanks to /pol/ and zoomers, it’s just a habit I can’t seem to break and still consider it my home site. Genuinely miss scrolling /tv/, /v/, and popping by to see what /fit/ is up to.
I’ve been on here a lot more though, finally decided to get posting again after all this time, although I can’t get into my @Stephen Hillenburg account right now.

That whole muscle memory thing will luckily fade eventually.
I was on a site once for years, every single day, and when it went under, I'd constantly catch myself typing the first couple letters into the address bar, even after it had been gone for a while.
 
Interesting, I can access it on my phone.
Everything is from 9 days ago, before the hack
Through the app read chan

Edit: it does give the popup "see you soon" when I try to post anything
