I don't post obviously, but I look through threads that seem interesting and there is so much spam it is fucking crazy. thank you for reading my stupid rant.
>>50696762The software is outdated and they already have better alternatives like open2ch (which is closed to gaijin). Futaba also gets CP spam all the time.
>>50696776>(which is closed to gaijin)weird I can see the posts there just fine.
>>50696786Oh shit they opened it? a couple weeks ago you'd get an error trying to access it if you weren't from Japan
>>506968242ch.sc seems to have this exact issue now instead.
>>50696776I checked out the open2ch download board and it seems kinda barren compared to the 5ch one.
>>50697802Textboard/imageboard culture is kinda dead in japan from what i've heard. A lot of the userbase has moved over to SNS like Twitter and the remaining userbase is aging quickly.
>>50698032nta but yeah i agree with you. the commodity of imageboards doesn't really exist in japan anymore like it did when they first came out, amplified by japan's strict social hierarchies and rules. now social media is just more convenient so ibs are just obsolete
>>50698056>>50698032Is text/imageboard culture not just dying in general?
>>50698058they are but not as bad in the west. i just went on futaba and there's illegal shit on there.. time to nope tf out
I wish there were a Japanese website that is like 4chan.
>>50698056>the commodity of imageboards doesn't really exist in japan anymore like it did when they first came out, amplified by japan's strict social hierarchies and rules.What happened to anonymous posting as pressure relief? Having one place where you can leave those hierarchies for a moment?
>>50698214Yeah i literally thought that was the point of the invention of 2ch. Japanese society is so suffocating with the politeness and over-apologia and shit that a place where you could just be "yourself" was needed
