How would you save /fit/?
Hard mode: you aren’t allowed to kill the current jannies
>>
>>77124825

The median age of 4chan has gone up. I started browsing fit in 2013 when i was 18. It felt like the average poster back then was early 20s. Now its clear the average poster is mid 30s. Young people dont post here anymore , theyre all on tiktok . Young people drive growth. This is a boomer website now. Its ok. Things die. 10 years from now tiktok will be the boomer website. Just the way shit works
>>
>>77124836
tiktok is already the boomer website. all teh cool kids are on civitai now.
>>
>>77124836
Yup. 31 here. I wonder if there is any way to make this site interesting to younger people but it seems to me that zoomers have grown up with a very curated and moderated interweb experience and so a site where people call each other faggots as simply good fun is a uniquely millennial phenomenon that happened once and will not happen again.

Ban all looksmaxxing dating and eceleb cross posting
>>
>>77124857
the internet has become a hate machine, it's like a melting pot of political and culture wars
4chan is ironically the antithesis to that since you have no identity, and any insult is like shooting shots in the dark
>>
>>77124836
I'm 18 on here and I'd rather not have a flood of ccptok drones ruin the boards culture and make it mainstream. Thanks to clav you have 13 year old kids saying foid
>>
>>77124870
Fuck off zoomy

>>77124865
This. So many people hungry for likes and shares that they become disingenuous faggots. Most people on Xitter, reddit or Instagram don't have any beliefs they just regurgitate the same talking points. It doesn't really work on an anonymous site

stay

>>77124825
It's saved in the archives. But you'll never be able to return it to its heyday because /fit/ and the rest of 4chan is a relic from an earlier internet culture. It's like saving MySpace. Why bother.
>>
>>77124825
Why are you posting between here and /r9k/?
>>
>>77124872
>starts post with "this"
>pretends he is better than the average plebbitor
no matter how long you've been here, i'm certain you've contributed nothing of value.
>>
>>77124890
The archives get purged regularly.
>>
>>77124885
The timeline starts from 2021. Pandemic and election tourist have artificially boosted traffic. I'd rather go back to /fit/ being a slow board than Indians and zoomers flooding the board.
>>77124895
"This post be bussing frfr ong." Is that better?
>>
>>77124931
/fit/ averaged 15,000 posts/day in the 2010s
It’s currently at 2000
>>
>>77124825
>fbi since biden is openly monitoring anyone who ever posted on this website as a means to delegitimize /pol/ being being where epstein was exposed
>now they have to double down to cover their ass
because now you are on a list and people think this website isnt run by the government? it was literally sold by the creator to a "private party" and /pol/ is always active. you arent off the list.

Does that mean """"""""""""""""""""mods""""""""""""""""""""""""""" like this /pol/tarded niggerjeet (who is actively trying to turn this entire website into a culture war battleground) are fair game?

ban phoneposting
make the captcha less retarded

There's nothing that will make it come back, just be glad that it happened.

>>77124825
To save /fit/ you'd need to change millennial fitness culture. Not gonna happen. People still use SS ffs.
>>
>>77124960
Is there an unluckier mix of races to be?
>>
>>77124857
They literally call each other faggots on tiktok and discord all the time, maybe because this website is ran and moderated like shit and you can't have videos with audio on most boards
>>
fit is dead
misc is dead
Its all over
>>
>millennials be like yeah bro it’s over, fits dead, good times have passed it’s done…
Then stay on the board for another 5 years lmao
>>
>>77124825
There's nothing to do. Young people don't come to 4chan for exercise advice anymore and nothing will convince them to do so.
It's going to be a long, slow ride down into genuine death of the board with single digit posts per day.
I expect we still have some time before that happens, but it's coming.
>>
>>77124857
>>77124836
There are some exceptions. I'm old enough to remember browsing the internet before the social media companies took everything over.
This site is amongst the few left up that still offer that experience.

Bring back tomboy threads and coombait OP images and have more humor/shit posting threads.
If you want fitness advice you better off looking for youtube videos. I only come here because randomness tickles my brain in a good (but obviously unhealthy) way.

Sadly this is what will probably happen.

2021-2022 was the last time /fit/ felt fun. Everything since has turned to shit, and the numbers prove it. Thing is, even at this sorry stage it's much better than the rest of the internet. I hadn't browsed the "normal" internet in a long time, when 4chan went down I came to realise that in the meantime every website had turned into unusable corporate garbage.
>>
Post yfw half the people complaining about the state of the board came here post Obama
>>
>>77124825
Ban everyone over 30. Half the lifting related threads are injury ones, and no one posts their lifts anymore even in /plg/.
>>
>>77124870
Bro you're so special you're like so mature for your age, whatever you see on this desecrated corpse of a board is definitely what was "made" mainstream. Keep listening to the bitter old men on here, this place is very influencal dude one day you can also hope to see your forced meme on instagram !!

Do you retards really believe 4tranny has any influence on the internet lmao it's an insular website. Well not really it's a semi-open system in the sense that every other post here is a reddit or xitter screenshot.
>>
internet is a shithole in general, it doesn't matter if it's 4chan or tiktok, it all went wrong when stopped to treat it as a place where they can hang out and chill with others instead of making it a subtitute of real life socialization, now the virtual is literally a part of your identity, you are supposed to have a curated linkeding/insta profile for work and shit like that
said that you have to agree that out of all boards /fit/ is literally pointless, what is there to talk about? ask chatgpt for a diet and lifting routine and that's it
lifting is a solved thing, nobody is coming up with new things, it's over, why would anyone read any shitposts itt if there are gorillions of terabyte of scientific literature on the subject
the userbase took a nosedive after the hack and the captcha was just too much, nobody is waiting 20+ minutes (clear coookies etc) to call someone a retard, and it doesn't solve the problem with spammers and pedos on the board
pretty much all boards are just frog/wojack spam, e-celeb dick sucking, culture war and other unrelated bullshit

unironically pick a book and go outside
>>
Honestly ban all zoomers and Gen a and this place will heal
>>
>>77125283
Barely anyone under 30 posts here anymore. Take responsibility for once in your life manchild.

>How would you save /fit/?
Realistic answer is the website would have to start attracting new users again. Which I don't see a way how. How would a zoomer/gen alpha even find this website? Nobody talks about it anymore. There used to be a huge memetic output from 4chan. A meme would be born here and then slowly users on other websites would start using it and talking about it. Nowadays not only 4chan produces no new memes all the OP images are just screenshots of twitter/reddit. And now with AI instead of going to forums to ask questions people ask chatgpt. In a few years there will be no forums just an endless AI generated feed for the normalfag to doomscroll.
>>
>>77124963
Stop shitposting and switching your ip and you just solve it once or twice and not again for weeks or days.

Shitposting killed this place. Imagine coming here for information. Angry seething dyels lurking here.
>>
>complaining about shitposting
>unironically a pc poster in 2026

Absolutely grim

No one who has been here for many years looks good. Either fat or skrawny. Coincidence?
>>
>what programs are the best?
>is X good for me?
>supplement stack thread
>does this exercise do anything?
>how do I look like X?
How many times can we have the same threads? Working out has been boiled down to a science and everything you need to know is in the sticky. Most people already have a goal and program so they're just looking to get there. The only thing left to talk about is gym culture and that's pretty much dead. It's all about roiding and looks now. Influencers don't even care about strength anymore. Just mogging and looks maxxing. People don't talk to each other or go out as much anymore so there are no stories that can be posted here as well. Scooby post the same shit. The Hodge Twins have gone into politics. Rich is dead. Zyzz is dead. Until lifting has interesting people in it again /fit/ will be a slow board.
