Take a screenshot and bring something back from the old 4chins archive. Images don't work by the way.https://old.sage.moe/
My favorite thing is to go on the archives and look at /b/ on New Years Eve between 2008-2013. Literally just a bunch of bros talking to other bros. I was there.>pic not related
How was this archive created? How did they get all the threads?
Here is an image from 2009. It's not my earliest save, but it's probably one of the earliest that would still "make sense" in today's landscape.
>>84036285Some autists saved everything.
It's weird how the cultural difference between 2006 and 2016 4chan is greater than the one between 2016 and 2026 4chan
>>84036215Sad that my brother and I's posts from back then aren't archived. Makes me wonder what all has been lost from that period of time
>>8403695706-16 went through like 4-5 different "meme phases"16-26 has been nothing but frogs and wojaks.Also "reddit spacing" as an annoying zoomer meme only showed up around 2014. Before then you could smash that Enter key between sentences & paragraphs and no one would try to be internet-cool by pretending that this was a reddit thing and not the default formatting for all forums and message boards.
>>84037119Reddit spacing was one of the most annoying brainworms to infect 4chan
didnt know i was on tHIS FAGGY FORUM AGAINFINETAKE YOUR SHIT
>>84037215It's just incredible insecure and desperate>uhhhmm?! I'm not a CRINGE REDDITOR, I'm a 2020 BASED ANONYMOUS 4CHAN HACKER OLDFAG who has to phoneposter in all lower-case to prove how much of a redditor I'm not.I end up intentionally triple spacing whenever it gets them upset lol
>>84037233MS paint captcha comics were like the last spark of original 4chan content/culture
>>84036215I just looked up my friend who used to tripfag here back in the day. I forgot all about this fight he's talking about.
>>84037260i've got a couple more of these, i didnt go to the archive to dig for them, obviously i have my own 4chan folder from existing herethis one's my favorite!
>>84036215>bring something backbring back mspaint threads
>>84036215When did the iconic greentext culture start on 4chan?
