Quick, Good, Cheap. Pick two.

Sure, I'm aware of the risks and whatever you pointed out, but it's a fact that the existing software and moderation tools are riddled with niche features and complexities that are not easily replaced by anything else. So if they want to keep their old mod tools while having a new imageboard software for the anons, they'd have to integrate the new database schema to their existing ancient mod tools. All I'm saying is that it is not a simple decision at all, even though it at first seems obvious that you shouldn't use the old leaked code ever again. Were they to actually replace the underlying software, we'd be talking about idk, at least a month or two of downtime before they could bring the site back online. Almost 25 years of badly written PHP/JS code is not easily replaced by something else, it just isn't, also 4chan-X and other similar browser addon support would be a critical feature to keep working, I'd argue. Not to forget their RSS/JSON/whatever API's anons are using.

I'm not gonna go back if it comes back up.
The time apart made me realize i was chasing something long gone and just getting annoyed that i couldn't find it anywhere.
I started using 4chan around 2019 but only any time there was a "mass shooting" to get the takes you couldn't find anywhere else. It was already going downhill at that time but it was so degraded already that as I started to use 4chan for more topics, I didn't really notice much of a difference. But the past year the spam/BBC/yellow fever/bait had indeed gotten really bad. The issue is that there's no other chans as alternatives.. and if you like the way catalogs in the chan work it gets addicting how easy it is to track different threads, especially with 4chanX which has notifications so you're not sitting there hitting refresh waiting on responses to questions or thoughts.

Where is it now?
You should apply to be a janny.
 
Even moot, the faggot that he was, posted and talked to users. Sometimes about nothing, sometimes about the site. I haven’t seen gookmoot post in ages, nor any other staff. They sit in their little discord circlejerk and talk amongst themselves. It’s even evident as the recovery from the hack has been going on; the only information we get is from leaked emails. They could have just put up a simple static page with an update, but they couldn’t be bothered. I’m not going to help and certainly not contributing financially to these insular loony troons.
Hiroyuki pretends he doesn't know English to avoid having to post on 4chan.
 
My demands:
  • Forced thread UID on the entire website. (To stop me from samefagging)
  • Forced country flags on the entire website. (To ignore posters from countries I dislike)
  • Forced "This user is on a phone/PC" on the entire website.
  • No VPN bypass through 4chan pass.
  • Removing "complaining about jannies/bans" as a ban reason.
  • Removing "no racism outside of /b/" as a ban reason.
  • 30 seconds captcha maximum.
  • Fully transparent ban/warning list.
  • Stickers. Just joking! Unless?

If any of those demands aren't met, I will abstain from gracing 4chan with my presence. (Certified quality effort poster)
4chan went from being a place that surfs the zeitgeist to a place run by faggots who want to use it an access point to dump their favorite poisons upstream.
The ethos problem isn't solvable, none of their decisions or policies are rooted in making 4chan good.
