What is the point of this board anymore? I am at the point where I spend weeks at a time away from /v/ at a time now.
Do you guys feel like people here just don't have anything intetesting to say anymore? Or are you mostly ChatGPT-bots talking to each other about nothing?

The big secret to the internet is that you control the content you consume, quit clicking on the shit threads.

Turns out you can't give the modern internet a place of discussion with no signup, security or repercussions without 99% of it turning into shit. This was only doable in the early 2000s. Not to mention that gamers have incredibly little impulse control making sites like this ripe for abuse.

I genuinely think the old guard are being filtered out. You see more and more zoomer-opinions on this board (and this site in general) go unchallenged all the time. They'll spend a few years laughing at alphies before they too begin to thin out and they'll make way for the next, worse, generation.

This is what happens when you have no moderation. Because as it turns out moderation is actually required if you want to retain a userbase that isn't filled with garbage subhumans who want to shit everything up.

Unironically all the shitposts are made on tiktok or twitter now I'm not even kidding. It's disgusting that 4chan is still stuck on gay little self-insert wojaks along with reddit.

but also, Hiro being completely hands-off with the site has been well-known to users ever since he took over the site. at least he IS hands-off instead of directly ruining the site like he did 2ch but I don't consider out current rot to be desirable neither

4chan is washed as fuck and I've been saying this for years. We on 4chan know it's not le dark scary place that people were pretending since exploding vans was a thing. Shit like twitter/reddit/tiktok have done worse raids and have worse content so 4chan is just riding off past ye old internet reputation but it's hardly as dark as they make it. /pol/ loves gassing themselves up but they've ultimately just become a twitter RSS feed while the real movers and shakers offsite make the ideas. To be fair same with this site with how much twitter screencaps or shitty reddit/twitter screencaps is content for us to 'reply to' as if they made the posts themselves. Literally the only thing 4chan has going for it is when people screencap random anons here talking complete bullshit because the "Anonymous" label confers some kind of ancient reputation that makes everyone think we're supergeniuses or makes the screencaps they steal from us more comedic.
>>725904953
It was fun to watch with everyone and shitpost. Now at most we have fucking Game Awards
Also it doesn't help that modern moderation has people absolutely shitstomping anything. If /v/ mods acted like they did back then you would've had poohball threads deleted on sight

We used to be able to self-moderate, you know. If shit threads happened we'd destroy and derail them with things like dubs, Spiderman posting or more board specific things like Garybombing. Sometimes overzealous, but it was part of 4chan's immune system. The mods destroyed that, of course. Banned people who did it while doing nothing about the threads it was done to. It's still like that today even while they do nothing about anything else, because they see it as a threat to their authority. And that decision is one of the reasons things are so shit now. The mods do nothing about the flood but punish us for trying to push back against it.

I've been here since 2009 and I've always been blissfully unbothered by the state of the board. The thing that finally wore me down is the gacha spam, which I'm also pretty sure overlaps heavily with "literal shill attempts." It's surprisingly tiring.
