We really should just migrate elsewhere. I miss 4chan, and then I think of the 900 sec timer and the ridiculous trannyjannies that would arbitrarily ban me for nothing. It’s like Twitter 1.0 in that regard. Fuck it, I hope it dies
My general desire, and I think I said this on lain a few days ago when this all began, but:
I hope a couple of people who are capable sysadmins can setup exclusive sites for the hobby boards, effectively advertise them during this chaos, and suck up the 'fugees.
Many people say they mostly went to 4chan for the hobby boards. Shit like /ck/, /po/, /o/, /fit/, /vr/, or all of these other "small" boards. Any one of these could be serviced by a competent sysop for tens of bucks a month, and other than the fact that everyone's used to saying "nigger" and "faggot" all the time, without being tied to /pol/ (which could be absorbed by larger alt-chans like 8ch successors) they would lack the political controversy of 4chan and could allow the people there to exist in general peace.
This in my opinion would allow the imageboard community to successfully decentralise, with there being effectively many sites to service particular interests, and thus make the generally free and independent internet community a more dispersed and decentralised place.
Srsly, techfags, if you know how to stand up an imageboard and you love your old community well, build up an alt-chan just to service your bros. Do the needful for them and do the needful for the decentralisation of general internet services. You know what you doing.
