I feel like the April 2025 hack was the final nail in the coffin for this site. Before the back, I thought this site was dead and gone. I still used it everyday, but I regularly lamented how much better the early 2010s used to be.After the site came back online, I almost immediately realized that I took 4chan for granted. It wasn't as good as it used to be, but at least it still felt like 4chan. It lost that unmistakable spark last April and I guess it never came back.I'm assuming a lot of great posters went elsewhere, but where? Which altchans should I check out? Or should I just stay here and hope they come back?>inb4 reddit spacing
>>34530520boo hoo nigga
>>34530520Maybe check 8
>>345305428 is pretty dead. It does feel a lot like how 4chan did right before the hack, lots of quality posters there (who you can tell are 04/25 refugees who ended up staying) but it's too slow for my liking.I think I already know the answer to my question and I just don't wanna admit it. Imageboards are becoming a thing of the past
>>34530520>Where did everyone go?Unironically:>twitter/reddit/discord>killed themselves or died>became boomers and grew out of itZoomers don't use 4chan outside of a handful of autists
>>34530520Alt chans are always better for friends, but they're slow as fuck. Personally I feel the site is the same.Yes it changed along the years. The whole culture shifted, sometimes it ebb and flowed in fun ways. For example the site was a lot more fun around 2020 when the uooohhh meme blew up. After the AI rollout the whole internet became shit, there's less authored information, media puts less effort into everything and now there's laws popping everywhere reining in even things that aren't AI like loli. Anyways you just have to see what comes next, and besides we're too old for this shit.
