>>1079569194chan still does not support Webp despite it growing in popularity so yeah, kind of.
>>107956934
>>107956934nigger i don't have any webps
You can find better content on Instagram than 4chan now, plus you know, HD/HDR video with audio
this isn't the place to discuss sociology
>>107956946You will soon as websites begin to realize that modern image formats while better in compression don't offer the same performance as webp.
the cattle is conditioned to log-in everywhere
Sorry niggerfaggots, 4chan isn't going anywhere. Show me another website with millions of unique monthly visitors that isn't algorithmically served up. Everyone that comes to this website sees the same shit. The catalogue is more-or-less chronological in stark contrast to instagram, twitter, facebook, bluesky etc etc.There are forums like ResetEra or RPGCodex or whatever, that's fine. But 4chan is something different. The imageboard format. The massive amount of traffic. The rapid-fire thread creation and deletion.Nothing can replace 4chan because the internet is now SO FUCKING GAY that 4chan, the original 'internet hate machine' for getting radicalized by far-right extremist elements... is now an island of sanity. Enshittification is so bad that 4chan is now a QUALITY WEBSITE offering glimpses into foreign cultures and hobbies you would never see anywhere else because you would be trapped in an algorithm-fueled content bubble echo chamber nightmare reality.I love 4chan. Fuck all of you niggerfaggots.
>>107956919Bro they ate 4chan's cake like well over a decade ago when the trump admin realised it was easier to promote maga slop on reddit as opposed to here
Social Media 'platforms', err, websites, don't even have identifying cultures. Everyone is in their own echochamber being drip-fed engagement bait by the algo. At least on 4chan each board has its own culture (with plenty of crossover between select boards).There is no alternative. That's why you're here forever.
People figured out that you can gain money and clout from 4chan-esque views and content. You can freely post racist or anti-semitic content on Instagram or Twitter and nothing really happens. You can also monetize that content. If you get banned, your following donates to you so you make even more money. With 4chan, it’s just 4chan. No money, no clout, just (You)s. Posting about pajeet rape on 4chan doesn’t give you anything. Doing it on social media does. It’s the same with OC and porn. There’s nothing to be made posting it here. Putting it behind a Patreon and advertising it on your Twitter? You secure a second income. You couple this with 4chan’s stagnation and /pol/ shifting away from Trump, and you have your answer.
>>107957029everything you just said is why i come here and don't use facebook/instagram at all.You can't really monetize this bullshit so people post for laughs instead of clout/money. It's also anonymous with no usernames so you can't develop a 'following' of simps or whatever. That already makes 4chan preferable to like 99% of the internet. Anything posted here has to stand on its own, in isolation, any all posts must succeed or fail based on their individual merit.Best website. You missed the whole point retard instagram user
no, the entire internet is 4chan now, which is obviously bad because this site is for retards
>>107957029>/pol/ shifting away from TrumpHuh? What? Since when? I've slowly weened myself off of this website, but those niggers were the main reason I stopped coming here so much.
>>107956959Pass are anonymous now?You get my point.HIROSHIMA IS A GREEDY GOOK.
>>107957029>With 4chan, it’s just 4chan. No money, no clout, just (You)s.>Posting about pajeet rape on 4chan doesn’t give you anything. Doing it on social media does. It’s the same with OC and porn.

>>107957062they used to say 4chan was where intelligent people come to act like retards.then ~2015 retards came acting intelligent.
>>107956994but the cake is a lie hurr durr
>>107956990>4chan, the original 'internet hate machine' for getting radicalized by far-right extremist elements... is now an island of sanity.This is so fucking true. If I go to Facebook I will see the most hateful, mean-spirited, cruel comments ever. Meanwhile 4chan is just people funposting or discussing whatever niche topic or just talking about what they made for lunch.>Enshittification is so bad that 4chan is now a QUALITY WEBSITE offering glimpses into foreign cultures and hobbies you would never see anywhere else because you would be trapped in an algorithm-fueled content bubble echo chamber nightmare reality.Also 100% true. Grim times.
>>107956919Yes. The internet lacks the curiosity of the past to properly bring in new users. Hence why every dipshit zoomer on this site is only here to be edge and contrarian because they can't do that at all anywhere else now. Normal people who once would have been curious to check out 4chan are terrified of it and are fine with just doomscrolling reddit, instagram, youtube, and tiktok.
>>107957093It's been astroturfed for years as it involves defending the indefensible (in that nafo style where they attempt to rhetorically blow through everything), it's a sinking ship they've tied themselves to
