It's because you chased off /a/.
>>107964385Yep. It's over. It's just an endless cesspool of gaslighting and ragebaiting. 2016 ruined the internet. >>107964576Yeah this place still felt like /g/ in 2019 but everything eventually gets 2016'd.

I understand small websites get spammed and raided to shit constantly, but bad automated moderation just makes things worse. Places I administrate implement a quarantine for new users and content, requires moderator effort but you avoid strangling your struggling community. You even get to curate exactly the kind of people you want to let in, keeping that hivemind healthy, something that has been killed off here. >>107965687Kind of lmao. >>107964424No, that IS a fixed woman.

>>107964385I have no respect or sympathy for you because /g/ has demonstrated time and time again for years it's nothing but low-intellect, no-talent hobbyist moron browser-warring program-consumers who can't create or innovate or design anything beyond a default neofetch screen.>my os is super important and choosing this team makes me special!>my linux distro is super important and choosing this team makes me special!>my browser is super important and choosing this team makes me special!>my programming language that i can't actually use to any significant degree is super important and choosing this team makes me special!None of you have done or ever will do anything with your computers worth mentioning, yet you somehow dare to act like this pathetic prole tier skub squabbling is the most important thing in the world. You'd be fit to post on /b/ or /toy/ but deigning to call this unwashed-masses behavior worthy of a Technology board is a joke.
>>107965687Bring back techloligy.
>>107965687/a/ is one of the worst boards on the site today. Anime died in 2010. We've been operating for 16 years now with an absolute fucking dogshit anime board and absolute fucking dogshit anime.

She lurks /ck/, absolutely marryable, perfect mix of trad and fujo>>107966769>>107966860I was forced into discord like 2 months after it's inception in like 2015, as the forum I used to frequent back then imploded. Most of that community were my IRL friends at the time, so I was stuck there for quite long. I hated that platform from the start, I remember when you couldn't collapse the user panel and the site only had a white theme.
>>107966513>On a board so filled with indiansMay I see proof of this utter schizoid insanity? Indians can't speak or write English, so why do you think 99% of the people you encounter are indians?Maybe it's just that you, personally, are so worthless that every time you post a stupid opinion or lose an argument you scream "jeet!" hoping this will salvage your ego, and somewhere along the line you convinced yourself the bogeyman was real.
>>107966889>I was forced into discordNo one "forced" you, you fucking narcissist trash. You choose to be avatarfagging garbage with every single post. Noo, the rules or common decency or the culture of the site don't apply to YOU, you're a super special snowflake narcissist who gets to keep acting like a completely repulsive faggot with every post.. and it's the BoARd that's wrong and has gone downhill!Fucking idiot. Fucking trash. If you had ANY fucking decency or concern about this board whatsoever, you'd stop avatarfagging right now, but I *100% guarantee* you cannot do it, your narcissism needs to be fed at every single opportunity.
>>107966889>chasing troons while messaging kids NSFW pics on whatever chatSo basically what I said? LmfaoThank God you faggots identify yourselves with avatars
>>107966914somebody call the police this man committed murder
>>107966397There was precisely one avatarfag hopping back and forth between /g/ and /sci/, depending on the board he was currently banned from. I don't miss the gimmick posting but it honestly wasn't that bad in hindsight. >>107966591>Covid and the election were our era's Eternal September.I wonder what are the actual oldfags' opinions about it. I started lurking around 2013 but I've only noticed two sharp declines in the quality of posts on /g/. The first one was around the time people were signing a petition in support of Stallman since it was also within the time frame when /g/ saw increase in unhinged Rust advocacy, influx of anti-Free-Software corporate shills and jannies giving up on enforcing the flame bait rule. The second one was when there were at least 10 AI /generals/ posted 24/7. Everything else happened gradually, probably because it took some time for election tourists to spill over to other boards.
>>107966899>Indians can't speak or write English, so why do you think 99% of the people you encounter are indians?Since the end of 2022 there was a sudden decrease of ESL posts, turns out saars, gook, spics and other tards can just paste their posts into llms

>>107966914I am very well aware that I am breaking all the etiquette I myself once upheld. But this place has become so foreign to me, so dead to me, that doing the worst sin of 2011 feels like bringing 2011 imageboard culture back. Elitist shitlord weeb avatarfags, remember those? Those were the days!! Forcing non-political memes? Remember that? We all pretended to hate it, but my god compared to what we have now, I want it back.Ok but I did go too far telling about my life trying to deflect pedo accusations, I'll stop that. Besides I'll be killed (again) if the wrong person finds this thread (again)>>107966899I don't know what it precisely is about, but majority of the threads don't feel like they're inhabited by actual humans I can in any way relate to. Are they LLMs, pakistanis, paid operatives, who the fuck knows. But they're not the hivemind I used to be a part of. Plus, the Indian Internet Theory has been proven true by Twitter and many nicher websites. Block third world countries and the quality of your forum will way go up, it's so stupid. Even private torrent websites just block Indians. >>107966936Post straight out of a Youtube comment section

You're just trying to gaslight the thread, shamelessly arguing in bad faith. This is PRECISELY the culture I fucking detest and have witnessed become increasingly overbearing since 2016. Are you an LLM or a glowie set to endlessly ragebait everyone off this board? Or just a newfag who got influenced by the former and now clueless perpetuates the poison?

>>107967224Nu-/g/ thinks posting anime girls is avatarfagging. This is because nu-/g/ is comprised primarily of zoomers who have never used a forum and do not know what an avatar is.
>>107968330I vaguely remember what /pol/ was like in 2015, and the place had one predominant opinion, overwhelmingly for Trump. The energy and the volume of OC was insane. But after the election it very quickly started feeling like that consensus, the hivemind, started getting actively and intentionally destroyed by endless bad-faith gaslighting. You go on /pol/ now and you just don't know what the fuck is going on anymore.The same "death of the hivemind" then started to spread to other boards, now you can't post a fucking Thinkpad on fucking /g/ without getting someone ragebaiting you about it being chink ewaste or something. Try to have a discussion about RPN calculators and the thread gets filled with unironic smartphone shills who then start to have an iphone vs android argument amongst themselves. This board used to hate smartphones!I know we always argued and we used to say that the board had no opinion, but .. now we don't even say that. Because now it truly doesn't, there's not even a vague consensus on anything. Everything resembling it gets aggressively torn down.The allure of places like these used to be to get updated on what's based and redpilled. But, what the fuck does this board currently think is based and redpilled? Fuck all! Though I guess the one consensus this board has is how shit everything has become. >>107968388lmao>>107968534I'm under no illusions, I am shamelessly avatarfagging.Used to do it in a general a long time ago. Gave me a reason to put effort into my posts. It was a fun challenge, could I contribute so overwhelmingly positively that you had no choice but to forgive my sins.It worked unbelievably well...Up until a genuine 60iq retard troglodyte shitskin newfag started trying to imitate me. With 500% the degenerate attentionfaggotry and 0% the contributions. Yeah that killed the general really quick.I may be a special little snowflake but the people I end up influencing are not. Don't ever avatarfag in a general.
>>107968797looks like your crap getting called chink ewaste really touched you
>>107964385Every board and every site feels like fuckin Bombay at this point, what a piece of shit the internet is lately.
>>107968797Open communication represents a problem for control freaks worldwide. literal glowniggers from various nations, hypersensitive reddit ideologues, corporations, you name it. Their common enemy is authenticity. If people are naturally saying things that aren't 100% on board with whatever view they have, that cannot be allowed to persist. That plus the sheer banality of the 3rd world was allowed on the internet.
>>107968939Dude you are posting on a Cloudflare website
>>107968797>there's not even a vague consensus on anythingBoards used to have cultures in the past.- /g/ had its board culture- /pol/ had its board culture- /a/ had its board cultureNeither of these boards have board culture anymore, no shared values, no shared aesthetics, no shared interests, just endless objective-less conflict of atomized individuals, now if I were schizo I would say that this was done intentionally by bad actors to pacify 4chan into not being able to organize and effect the real world, but I'm not a schizo, so all I'm going to say is that this is a sad state of affairs, noone benefit from this but I don't see a bottom-up solution to this either, a top-down solution might work if admin and mods cared, but they don't just look at /g/ catalog so many rule-breaking threads, so many bad faith threads yet no action is taken other than making increasingly shitty captcha which malicious actors can bypass anyway.>I am shamelessly avatarfaggingNo it doesn't qualify as avatarfagging unless you use the same character, you might be avatarfagging as Marisa if you use her for every post from this point on, but As >>107968534 puts it the "no avatarfag or signature" rules exists to not turn 4chan into a forum, when indeed users often have avatars and signatures.
>>107968972I'm also correct.
>>107968939If moderation did something about it, like banning the bad faith posters and try to give a direction to board culture it could be possible to get a good board which allow open communication about technology, yet they don't.We are not powerless to this menace in theory, but in practice the board is left to rot, wide open for all the malicious actors.
>>107968982Yeah pretty much. Sad to hear /a/'s fallen victim to this too, now I'm curious what they're baiting each other about, not been around in a decade.>now if I were schizo I would say that this was done intentionally by bad actors to pacify 4chan I'm almost schizo enough to believe something like that must have happened. But it feels almost plausible enough that it was a decentralized, an entirely organic effort.>a top-down solution might work if admin and mods cared,It absolutely would. I've seen it be done. What I've noticed moderating stuff is that rules-based moderation simply does not work, you must be able to get rid of people for no valid reason at all. That's how you get to curate the culture on your platform, something that is otherwise impossible to dictate in writing.Works great when all the culture moderation goes through one admin. But I imagine that being very difficult to scale to work on a website this big and active. The commies who purge organizations with made up CoC violations use this exact tactic, they've proven it to be very effective. >No it doesn't qualify as avatarfaggingSure in that sense, perhaps. I have never paid any attention to what the literal rules of any board were, instead only considered what the culture deemed acceptable. Something I would definitely be in breach of.
>>107965614Maybe you are blind to llm generated text but just by quickly checking out one thread on their tech board, and it was full of that kind of posts.
>>107969592>The commies who purge organizations with made up CoC violations use this exact tactic, they've proven it to be very effective. Hopefully retards like you will be deleted from the internet with age verification and face checks

>>107969592>Sad to hear /a/'s fallen victim to this tooThe r/a/dio and other events are still alive, but the board itself has no culture left and there is constant conflict, not as bad as /v/ but pretty bad.>rules-based moderation simply does not work, you must be able to get rid of people for no valid reason at allI know what you mean, I had some experience with imageboard moderation in the past, a small number of interpretable rules with an escape hatch that lets you ban malicious troublemakers is the best combination.
>>107968982>Boards used to have cultures in the past.>- /g/ had its board culture>- /pol/ had its board culture>- /a/ had its board culture>Neither of these boards have board culture anymore, no shared values, no shared aesthetics, no shared interests, just endless objective-less conflict of atomized individualsI do believe that sadly that the problem we face is that of nations, kingdoms and empires.It's fun in the beginning; an adventure where novel ideas are prolific and there is alot of motion while still being rooted in where it all came from. Everything is fresh, but at the same time not completely foreign.I do believe we find ourself in the same predicament where we outgrew our own capacity and with time have stagnated like all things do with time.I hope you understand what I'm trying to convey and that it's not just an incomprehensible shitty wordsalad.Anyway the light and joy will comeback one day.Maybe not here. Maybe not for us, but one day it will.I know it.In the meanwhile take care, fa/g/s.See you around.:^)
every single day i miss her. i've never been on a comfier altchan.
>>107970094I miss it greatly too, even the asukafag.
>old good new bad>anything I don't understand is jews/trannies/indians!congrats you are now an official nu/g/ poster.
/g/'s been on the road to turning to shit since /prog/ was deleted. /g/ didn't need less /prog/. It needed /tech/ to be salvaged. That's where all you're incredibly worthless 999 post circlejerks need to be. Instead the catalog on /g/ is at least 1/3rd filled with positively less than worthless threads because the mods only think in terms of>on topic>off topicBecause they're stuck thinking they're moderating /v/ 15 years ago. I'm just tired of it. It's militantly anti-fun, it's fighting the last war to a superlative degree, and it's killing 4chan.
>>107970117>asukafagSpeaking of, how the fuck did he end up as a windows 7 tard?https://desuarchive.org/g/search/text/vxiiduu/
>>107966310>normal people>posting on /g/
>>107964385Part of the decline is thanks to anons like the ones ITT avatarfagging because all they do is spam the 30 general threads on /g/ so they're used to every thread being a quasi-discord server where everyone is on a first (nick)name basis and just talks about drama instead of contributing to a discussion.Seeing you "people" here complaining about how /g/ sucks now reminds me of the stonetoss rope pulling comic, with you being on the same side as the people who you think are your enemy.Miserable little hypocrites.
>>107968982>>107968982>if I were schizo I would say that this was done intentionally by bad actors to pacify 4chan into not being able to organize and effect the real worldThe entire internet is this. It's literally wartime. How the fuck is this a mystery?
>>107971665/g/ always had namefags anon
>>107969842Newfag opinion. We always gatekept our culture by shaming users who did not fit in.But that has long since stopped working. There isn't even a culture left protecting, it's long since been atomized. And new generations don't even care about fitting in, they just maliciously abuse anonymity to its full bad-faith potential. Nothing is treated sacred by anyone.
Finally a semi-comfy thread.So what have you been up to anons?What old parts of /g/ (or 4chan in general) do you miss?
>mfw actual discord trannyme niggers talking about gatekeepingel oh elI'd tell you to kys, but that's probably on your todo list already, sorry, not sorry
ITT: the things on this board aren't on this board because there's less of it because the site's dead because the owners are shit and nobody's making a better imageboard.
>>107972477I really miss feeling like the place is worth contributing into. I used to take a lot of photos of cool tech just to post them here. Now it feels utterly out of place to post OC into threads that are just pictureless bad-faith ragebait spam, so I just don't do it and have stopped taking photos altogether.
>>107964385I rarely see "install gentoo" anymore
