>4chan is losing users and getting slower every day
>even fast boards like /v/ are visibly slower now, with threads that are 2-3 days old still in the catalog
What's the end result of this? Do you think smaller boards will disappear? People say that 4chan has been dying for years, but now it seems that it's actually happening for real this time.
>>

Proof?

nta, but

I think your persepctive of reality, IS NOT everybody else's objective reality.

Meaning you just weren't there at a good time, or whatever. It's called the placebo effect and I hypnotized your mom with it

That thread is capped by the amount of time it takes to complete a game. It's likely that they're choosing lots of pieces, so it's taking a while.

reminder 4chan is a sinking ship
when moot left, 4chan was already dying.
That being said, I feel you, ever since the capcha update and the shutdown by sharty, 4chan is so slow now, and and it's started being even slower a few months ago.
>>
>>951974292
>NO THAT 4 DAY OLD THREAD ISN'T PROOF
fuck off faggot

I'm a regular in the trap thread and it's sad to see. used to have multiple threads a day and now one can last 24 hours. though that's also due to a severely mentally ill tranny spamming the thread for a year and a half because he got jealous of a femboy lol
>>

I think they are making it look dead to discourage another polarity shift in the way of elections/politics. You know king pedo, Epstein, Mossad, and probably a dozen unnamed thinktanks are watching what's going down, and they just hope people quietly accept the zogification of everything. This place has the potential to rile up the youth, and that isn't what they want right now.

This is a choice by the mods

There is endless spam that gets posted here throughout the day that they choose to ignore (BBC/log threads etc)

The user fall off is definitely real, threads used to last an hour if you were lucky - but the way the mods want this site to run is very weird
>>
>>951975890
The architect behind 4chan's decline has a name and it's RapeApe.

>>951973647
Remember the days where if you didn’t respond to a thread fast enough, it’d fall off almost instantly? Pepperidge Farms remembers.

15 minutes captcha cooldown and inability to post images from private/incognito tabs killed this shit for good, they've reverted these changes but it's already too late

>Make captcha complete cancer
>Don't bother banning obvious spam threads that pop up every hour
>>
>>951977984
Not defending logfag, but you can always ignore or hide these threads in one click.
But the platform built solely around user posts requiring actual effort to post while offering no compensation whatsoever is a recipe of disaster.
>>
Learning what others learned thousands of years ago; that means can't be forced without money, and the new money funding the little here starts to dry up. That people can ask their AI if it's not farmers here and hear, "yes.". That those real people left don't care and mostly lurk.

Replace 4chan as it dies in your life with spirituality. Your mastery of the word nugget and your resentment aren't powerless, I made it so they build your dreams into reality. Strike out at humans, aliens and others with your mind, receive spiritual pay. Don't let memes just be memes.

It's not as fun as it used to be. AI, spam, government agencies making posts to discourage people from posting in threads with unfun posts.

I have a hypothesis that government agencies are using AI to learn how to stop people from posting on forums by sowing division or making posts that turn people off from engaging. They are doing this to neutralize 4chan because it's easier to track people on other social media websites. 4chan is too unpredictable and TPTB don't want anyone communicating that they can't track, spy on or predict.
>>
>>951978171
This too
Captchas are way too hard to solve and take way too long

The people I talk to who used to post on 4chan just don't anymore
Everyone seems to just stick to twitter, instagram and discord now.

it was WAY MORE infested 15+ years ago, when there were random gore and seapee threads dodging the b&hammer all the fucking time
>>
>>951981240
Oh trust me I know, had to get help for some of the shit I seen on here.

The website is a qliphothic shithole, the dregs of society have come here and will continue to come here. There is no benefit to engaging with this sight, it sucks the sephirot from you. Only reason I'm here right now is to see if its as hellish as it was a decade ago.

The end point of the qlipha Is as you said, seapea and the destruction of life.

>>951981793
Being slightly unpopular and wacky doesn't mean devolving into qliphothic lifelessness. There's a reason people heard the word 4chan come out of a persons mouth and immediately cut em off.
>>
>>951974239

No, OP is right. When I first came here in 2008ish, if your thread didn't have immediate traction it was gone in just a few minutes.

Now threads (even on /b/) can last a couple days.

It's because all the real users were driven away by trumptards and now the trumptards are realizing that they were useful idiots the whole time so they're leaving too now. This is what healing looks like.
>>
>>951973647
4chan deserves to die. It's what happens when you have a group of people (mainly millennials, who are unbearable in their own right) that call anyone that wants to start using 4chan a newfag and to get out.

Friday nights when I was new in 07/08 had some wild /b/ threads. I IM'd a link to a buddy and when he checked in 15 minutes it was 404'd. These days, the thread you leave open in the morning is still there in the evening.

Then there's the dumbfuck reasoning behind the random day bans. /t/ may be slow but it's still useful

Not defending logfag but the OTK/tiktok/streamer threads are worse. "The world's most dangerous site" is on the same level as housewife soap opera gossip in the 1980s.
>>
It happens
>>
>>951986413
It can't be worse because it's only one eternal thread. log spam is 20 threads or more

4chan ebs and flows like water. If you just focus on some of the more popular, always on, generals as a point of reference, there are some days where a single thread will last 8 hours, and some days when anons will burn through an entire thread in an hour and a half.

So you're in the streamer gossip and eternal tranny threads.

4chan died after m00t sold it. Hiro has done a shit job keeping this place alive. Given the constant abuse by staff, leaks after the shutdown, bots or indians/SEAs paid to post and so much more. Anons left 4chan for good or went to alternative sites. 4chan use to be active, but slowly started to dift away from what it once was. Regardless we are here forever in this FBI Israeli honeypot

lol, nah. I'm mainly talking about about the AI sloppa threads. Content always flows pretty quickly, considering the regular genners can easily create a new pic every 30-45 seconds. One or two posters can easily bump-limit a thread with OC in just a few hours. so the main thing that dictates thread life spans is just how many people are there posting

I think anons are right about a lot for what they discussed, but are mission the demographic issue.

Young people don't really explore the internet much anymore. Not to mention, the actual number of young people proportional to the total population is declining due to low birth rates. So most forums and such have a trickle of new users and an aging population.

I will also do some speculation here: people lurk more nowadays. I know there's raw statistics this is true for places like Instagram where regular people posted less and consumed more content; I predict this effect is weaker on 4chsn due to no ml algo, but we also have way more spammers and schizos that make engaging in discussion feel pointless at times.

>>951986413
Yeah, there's this weird mythology on other sites about what 4chan did in the past like HWNDU, but I can't really think of anything notable that 4chan did recently. Like being hacked was more something that happened to it, maybe the LLaMA weight leaks.
