What brings you back to 4chan as opposed to other sites?I lurk most of the time no matter where I go, including here. I rarely comment or post bc of the stupid captcha system, but it feels like one of the few places online where censorship isn't rampant, though lots of the language here is a pretty big turn-off for me most of the time.I'll find niche topics here that I wouldn't normally find, and sometimes I come here to check out what people are saying in light of current events. I don't really take any of it seriously, it's more like checking out the vibes of the toxic swamp on a given day, as I would be able to do with any other site. I guess this site doesn't necessarily try to peddle any "hot" or "trending" posts in the modern sense, it just shows me what people talk about.So why here? What do you get out of it? What makes 4chan (and its various sibling-chans) your go-to platform over the other options you can pick from?
>>83069445Because I got banned on normalfag websites and because I don't like discord and I like honest discussion with peopleI am a KHHV NEET too soAlso because I can vent without an identity while other sites are fake as shit and also because I am addicted to this site like everyone else
>>83069445people on normalcattle sites are just kind of mean tbdesu. talking to anons is much comfier
>>83069445I'm sorting my thought outI don't want them tied to any persona
this is the only place whre i can just...say shit most of the posts here are horrible, the quality is trash, the users are stupid, the moderation is abysmal, but i can say what i want whenever i want and that is good
>>83069445mostly to come and see what people are talking about on here. been pretty busy lately learning to drive, trying to improve my health, and finally finding out what's wrong with me, so after months im finally back on here today. TwT
>>83069474yeah thats one of the few good tings about this website. i can just say whatever without an email or phone number attached>>83069468also true. there's too much dumb retarded shit on normalcattle sites while people here will actually help u sometimes
>>83069445Designated timewasting website. Other social media would be like that as well, it's just that I was using 4chan for long.By the way, I suspect a lot of people here are under the impression that /r9k/ is the entirety of 4chan
>>83069502r9k is exactly as fucking retarded and botted as other non-dead boards thougheverbeitdesuyo?????????
>>83069511>>83069502yeah all the active boards suck. >>>/diy/ is for literal autistic people i think and unironically one of the best ones
>>83069511as shown by your post, not that it's still any more true
this board specifically really does feel like one of the more human parts of the Internet. people here suffer from the same problems I do, and the lack of identity thanks to anon board culture gives everyone less of the disgusting ego you see on most social media sites. It feels like whenever I try to find similar outcast communities on Twitter or other places its full of bpdemons who do shit like post their huge sh cuts and tear each other down with stupid e drama
I like being anonymous and I dislike having accounts or identities tied to my posts. Also 4chan is the biggest imageboard and the first one I ever used, so even when I leave to smaller imageboards I always end up back here.
>>83069535how long have you been lurking, I'm curious?
>>83069522what did sussy unc mean by this?
What other sites are there? The internet has shrank so much. It's 99% faceberg, instastein, redbaum, and videowitz. Needless to say there's nothing worth interacting with on those sites. I don't know Russian so I can't join discussion on torrent sites. Normalfags are all mean, stupid, and evil. At least the typical nontourist person here is nice and at least intelligent enough to string together a single coherent sentence.
>>83069445mainly because you are anonymous and can speak your mind here without getting banned and moderated away
