Why is this website so addicting, internationally speaking?
>>215347441It's one of the few places you can participate in interactions in which both parties aren't self-censoring to some extent.
>>215347441The (You), and the uncertainty and wait times for it.
>>215347441Low effort and no need to make an account
>>215347564I wish ppl here would self censor a little when it comes to whining/horniness/horniness-inflected whining. But hey you can't have everything
>>215347564I think it's basically the anonymity and this. I was an '07 /b/tard and I want to leave this awful place forever but we all know I can't.
>>2153474414chan is just social media, you get to talk to people
the worst thing is that no matter how shitty 4chan is, almost every other space in the modern web is EVEN worse.the right thing to do is to cut (non-essential) internet access for good, but we as chronic addicts can't even fathom to do this
>>215347564BBC
>>215347807We need one of those massive solar flare things I see people talk about sometimes. I'm too retarded to understand how that works but knocking out the world's electronics would kick ass.
>>215347854Don't self-censor, bro. Tell him what you want to do with the BBC.
>>215347441Lack of censorship, it's literally impossible to have a conversation on YouTube comments. Also people respond pretty quickly
>>215347441Idk. I've been here near daily since 2011. Thousands and thousands of hours pissed away
>>215347441You can't have dumb fun on reddit because their idea of fun is being a condescending faggot and saying their retarded dozen phrases over and over again. You can't argue with people because funnily enough, people on reddit (and most other social medias) are very close minded and are simply unwilling to engage in any kind of thinking that is not an echo chamber. Outside of schizo's you will find more fruitful and good faith arguments and discussions on /his/ and /lit/ than you will find reddit. Also every other website is slow as fuck
>>215347441Freedom>but the plebbitor janny tranny banned me because he didn't like my opinionand you can bypass it, unlike other social media where doing bannable offenses not only means account suspension, but having your real life ruined or even risk get fired, attacked or bullied to death.
>>215347564Absolute bullshit, you get banned for saying anything that the mods get offended at
>>215347441This board is very chill.
>>215348633So reset your router/put your phone in airplane mode.
>>215348753You have to delete your cookies too but yeah it always blows my mind how many people don't know how to ban evade when it's so fast and easy. Fuck mods and fuck jannies.
>>215348853Maybe im too lazy to ban evade. The router is actually in the living room.
>>215348963Are you really on a computer? I figured these days we were all phonefagging.
>>215347441>4chan is free and values self expression, no likes or account or personality makes things easier>/int/ has a special dynamic because of flags and has created a unique ecosystem>Not as chuddy as /pol/ just racist in good spirit but also accepting of every opinion
it is?this site is straight up so fucking boring these days. Twitter is unironically more entertaining than this place any half decent slightly off topic gem thread gets nuked by the mods and its the same racebait day in day out with nothing of value for weeks
>>215349217We wouldn’t expect someone from Vietnam to be able to afford a PC
>>215349400Why the hostility, Pedro? I have two computers.
>>215347582This. It's really like gambling mixed with safe social interaction for autists because what you say probably won't be traced back to you because everyone is anonymous unless you get doxxed. You can say whatever you want so it's liberating for an autist who's sick and tired of masking for normie approval and (You)s are random and give dopamine so every post is a dice roll for whether you'll get (You)s and dopamine or not. Sometimes you hit the jackpot and get quads or quints and lots of (You)s or your thread hits bump limit and you keep using it to get that high again.
>>215349392Then go to twitter and enjoy your algorithm generated political outrage circlejerk
>>215348027>Also every other website is slow as fuckThis is my problem too. I don't want to wait two days for your reply here everything is fast paced at least on these popular boards.
4chan is easier to use than any normie social media, here you just post or reply what else is there. You have to register in most places, post photos or videos it's all confusing to me.
>>215348027>>215349546>every other website is slow as fuckIt's all because of heavy JS frameworks. People don't care about the craft of web dev any more. Most modern web devs don't even know the basics of networking and the 14kB rule. It's grim but that's how it is in 2025.
>>215349392they get paid to be morons y'know
>>215349741it predates normie social media
