is 4chan dying?What are they hiding?
>>106510846>axes not labeledkys
>>106510874that's 4stat's fake graph, retard
>>106510973i dont know and dont care about what 4stat is, your post is garbage
>>106511012Fool.
>>106510846>is 4chan dying?yes. and very quickly. a lot of the popular boards, including here, are now mostly comprised of chatgpt posts>What are they hiding?they're hiding the amount of active users because the british government's blackmail of websites with a certain amount of users need to conform to laws of a foreign country. if not that, 4stats admin is just a retard. hard to say with 100% accuracy.
>>106510846i think people just got tired of ragebaits and trolling, everyone wants anonymity until it inevitably draws in too many retards. you cant go on any board and have a sincere talk anywhere, its just ragebait 24/7, i went from posting on the chan every day to coming here once every 1-2 months
>>106511162>ragebaitis it really ragebait when someome makes a thread where he pretends to be outraged (or actually is) like:>XYZ SUCKS AND EVERYBODY WHO USES IT SHOULD DIE IN A FIRE. I AM SOO FUCKING ANGRY. WHY DOESNT IT JUST WORK. I AM SHOUTING FULL OF ANGER RIGHT NOW WHILE I AM HAMMERING THIS INTO MY KEYBOARD WAAAAAAA WAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAit is not "i try to make people mad", it is "i am a mad psycho".But i think this isn't what is killing 4chan. I think it is the same thing that killed mainstream sites:You can't post or get banned after you said something out-of-line and watch shills spam while you can't post.Right now i am using residential proxies to write this post, because i managed to get range banned for some unknown reason.It's like newsmedia comment sections (when those still existed). From ten comments you write, maybe two get approved, while everything around you is low-quality narrative shilling.What are you supposed to do? Of course at some point you simply leave.
>he still thinks 4stats is official and not ran by Some Fucking Guy in Germany
>>106510846the userbase is getting old
>>106511932this will be the average user in 20 years
>>106510846yes it gets worse and worse as time goes on. organic traffic consistently hits new lows>>106512584already is per my sample size of 1i just don't know where else to go, i never engaged with normie social media so now i'm stuck here
It’s those filthy traitors at holotower
>>106512584That's been the average user for 5 years now.
Jannies killed the fastest boards. /pol/ jannies just allow for bot spam, and most of the remaining human posters are retarded zoomers with no impulse control, so the board is just groundhog day. /v/ mods literally delete video game related threads whole the entire board is flooded with porn. /tv/ is the only one that's relatively fast that's not shit up with spam, but their jannies are way too autistic. They ban you for posting memes. I'm banned from there every other week
>>106511932the userbase been old it's the zoomers that are getting old now
>>106510846yeah, this place is quickly becoming a janny safe space
>>106510846As someone who basically lived on 4stats, these boards are dying from most dead to least:/biz/ Business & Finance/mlp/ My Little Pony/fit/ Fitness/b/ Random/co/ Comics & Cartoons/tg/ Traditional Games/mu/ Music/j/ Otaku Culture/r9k/ Robot 9001/tv/ Television/v/ Video Games/vt/ Virtual YouTubers/sp/ Sports/a/ Anime & Manga/pw/ Professional Wrestling/pol/ Politically IncorrectThese ones are steady:/cm/ Cute/Male/e/ Ecchi/g/ Technology/ic/ Artwork/Critique/int/ International/lgbt/ Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, & Transgender/t/ Torrents/vip/ Very Important Posts (4chan pass board)/vst/ Video Games/StrategyThese ones are actually growing:/adv/ Advice/bant/ International/Random/h/ Hentai/trash/ Off-Topic/vg/ Video Game Generals/vm/ Video Games/Multiplayer/vmg/ Video Games/MobileMake of that what you will.

>>106512926Do you mean to tell me, based expert-sama, that /b/ is slower than /an/ and /i/ now? And even /j/, apparently?
>>1065108464chan is not dying, you are just mad because a jannie btfod you. time to go back to Plebbit.
>>106513161Nah, I looked at the boards and found the highest, but steadiest post counts in their lifespan (so I ignored the biggest temporary spikes around election time and holidays and so on) and then I compared it to the time I checked it to get a percentage of post count decrease.I ended up with a ranked list of boards based on what percentage of people have stopped posting there. I wanted to find out what boards were the most deserted. For current slowest boards, you can get that from 4stats even without the graphs.
>>106512836>>/biz/ Business & Financedying? this board was literally targeted and killed
the only boards that majorly increased the daily average number of posts since 2020/board creation were/trash/ - furfags/lgbt/ - troons/vt/ - gooners/vg/ - zoomers/x/ - schizos/adv/ - a mix of the above 5These are the main users of 4chanand /vt/ took a massive loss after a bunch moved to /hlgg/ in the downtime and never came backMost threads consist of reddit/twitter/tiktok crosspostsNothing is created here, all of it comes from somewhere elseIt's actually easier to post shit to twitter than it is to 4chan
>>106510846YesWhy because /b/ is boring everyday it's same shit post over and over
4chan is becoming more boring I make threads just to not see the same boring generalsand those generals are getting slower and slower...
>>106512820/g/ is a chinkshill's board. They simply own this place.
>>106510846Yes it's dying. 4chan and imageboards aren't compatible with the modern internet. I don't know what will replace them.
>>106513737Well deserved.
>>106512820oh, wow. that was you.
>>106511162this site has been anonymous for twenty years, that is obviously not the issue
>>106513710Discord with real id
>>106510846Yes. Last time I checks 4stats.io, it showed that 4chan's overall posts/day were down ~20% over the past 2 years.That's alongside the massive number of posts/day from the new /vt/ board so overall board traffic is probably down closer to 25-30%
>>106510846Looks that way. It’s obvious from the lack of responses you get that this place is majority bots, maybe a huge majority. I was considering buying ads for this board, but it seems like a total waste. Maybe I’ll consider it again after certain countries are rangebanned.
>>106514193I'd say it's way more than that vs ~2014. IIRC /g/ was at its lowest ever last time.
>>106513365did generals mess things up as to me /x/ has felt dead for years
>>106510846Bots. Bots everywhere. The web is dying.
>>106510846
why is 4stats still borked when will that drunken kraut fix the site
>>106514384People think that, but it’s basically a last ditch attempt to have some active threads that aren’t total shit low IQ spam. They're a response to the quality drop of the other threads around them.
