Is 4chan social media? If not, what is it?
yes it is, its a cope that is any different from tiktok or instagram instead of replying to jewish images on a board they reply on jewish videos and pictures
>>537515280Define social mediaDefine 4chanCompare
>>537515473>no account needed>no phone number, email or ID needed to postNot social media at all. It's an image board.
>>537515280It's an imageboard, retard.
>>5375152804chan is antisocial media because you don't need to make a profile to interact.
>>537515532Me replying to you isn't social?With the attached media, I’m replying to your post.
>>537515593yeah, its very accessible too. That's why kikes are here spamming and paying indians to spam. they cant "cancel" people here and that's a huge problem for them
>>537515280This place is anti-social mediaFuck your reputation, fuck your credentials, fuck your stupid ass faceFuck your "Thailand beach" pics, fuck your birthday, fuck your networking Fuck the henpecking vidictive HR culture that looks at you funny because you haven't posted sunset pics cuddling with fluffy bunnies, fuck your feelings and mineFuck ego
>>537515593Replying to text is social.Anti social media doesn't exist.
>>537515280It’s MootMedia
>>537515526>anonymous account>fake emailthere you have it, now instagram is just like 4chan
>>537515669And fuuuuuck you especially You are the shadow of the HR vampires
>>537515701No
>>537515280social media doesn't exist if it is anonymous retard. social media requires social proof, hence identity. this is the opposite, its an image board, totally free thought. its the purest form of communication that exists currently. not that is isn't overrun with bots and jews, but its the best we have
>>537515735the poster u r replying to said nothing wrong stop spazzing
>>537515280mentally challenged daycare
>>537515280I would say 4chan is antisocial media, most here are antisocial. Reddit is retard media. They're just so fucking stupid.
>>537515280It's an imageboard, Leafo Retardo.
>>537515733Can I say nigger on Instagram?
>>537516316No
>websites and computer programs that allow people to communicate and share information, opinions, pictures, videos, etc. on the internetby definition it is>muh imageboard>muh anonymity>muh NIGGERare all copes
no. people only talk about their personal lives here if they're /new/ or they're just trolling
It a mongolian basket weaving forum you newfags.
>>537516443Finally a based post.LoL.
>>537515280We are all anonymous you spud.It's obviously anti-social media.FFS.
>>537516411>>537516316yes you can, retardsyou cant say kike tho
>>537516604>you cant say kike thoUseless website then.
>>537516464The glowies talk about people's personal lives here for them
>>5375152804chan is where freemasons come to test how would the masses react to certain ideas/false flags
>>537515280I think 4chan definition is less important now that lost relevance. The memes here are now taken from the normiesphere, amd the news are taken from reddit and X. Nothing is starting from 4chan anymore, and a single mom doing a stupid reel have an impact on society, while anons have not. The only good thing that this place still have is that desn't need account and the old school form.
>>537516780well its the continuation of 4chanthis website is dead and is not coming backzoomers use only instagram
>>537517087>zoomers use only instagoyimgood
>Redditors are trying to steal the 4chan meme from like 15 years ago
>>537517133you are gonna die soon, old fartyour generation is irrelevant
>>537515280Nice
>>537515280return to forum
>>537515494>social mediacringe>4chanbasedThey are not the same
>>537515280It's the last vestige of the old internet that doesn't require your personal info to function.
>>537515280It's a retard factory you blueberry ape
>>537515494Social media is an abstraction of real life. As if you say something on the town square or at work. It’s always the same people, you know who you interact with, and you can for some part control who sees/hears what. Its a medium for social ends for social points. Even reddit with usernames and karma is social media, you can build a reputation and need to verify you are actually human, so its social stuff for social ends. The karma system rewards social behaviour and punishes antisocial behaviour per design (ofc its botted, but the question is what is it designed to do)4chan is no social media. It’s an information sharing medium with a reply function. I don’t know who you are or even if you are a real person. You could be my neighbour or kim-jong un or a bot. It‘s irrelevant, no social aspect or implications.
>>537515280>Is 4chan social media?no it's a mossadnigger break roomthey come here to relax and smoke between shifts
>>537515280it's a forum you fucking zoomer.
>>537515280an online agorasocial media is more of a tavernreddit is a hipster cafe
>>537515280crab bucket that is now majority bot farm
>>537515280Hell
Yes, 4chan is social media. People communicate on it.
>>537518461there's no requirement to communicate or participate in any way, it can be used as a read-only website unlike actual social media that requires you to become a member of theirs to read anything.
>>537518461People communicate through newspapers, is that social media?People communicate over the phone, is that social media?Graffiti?Airplane banners?Billboards?Smoke messages?Walkie talkies?hYou might actually be retarded
>>537515473What's social about it? You don't know who I amThere's plenty of threads with an image to start and no other mediaIt's an ainu beard enthusiast forum
>>537518919No he’s not. You’re the retarded one. He’s correct. Social media generally refers to the digital many-to-many platforms. You listed various one-to-one and many-to-one media formats.
>>537519174No. Social media has profiles and baked in social aspects beyond communication. Sure, in this thread I can find every single post you've made, but I can't see your entire post history across all threads/boards. There might be Namefags/tripfags but you can't follow Wayne's trip to highlight his posts the moment you get onto 4chan.I can't click your Anonymous and add you as a friendThere is no up votes/likes/reaction emotes systems.There is no algorithm driving engagement.
>>537519997Holy mental gymnastics
>>537520200The only ones doing mental gymnastics are the people who think 4chan is a social media platform like Facebook/tiktok/Myspace/Instragram.
UM WRONG SWEETY. FROM CAMBRIDGE DICTIONARY>websites and computer programs that allow people to communicate and share information, opinions, pictures, videos, etc. on the internet, especially social networking websites:https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/social-mediaThat is settled now STFU.
>>537515280it's an anonymous imageboard, lurk moar.>>537515280social media has profiles. 4chan is anonymous. 4chan is as far from social media as you can get.>>537519174irc is many-to-many but no one would call it social media, and it's even more social than 4chan, via its namefaggotry.
>>537515651No. Since youre a leaf, your message is inherently passive aggressive and of lower quality than even an Australians. You guys fought hard for that position.
>>537515651No, the social aspect of social media is defined by fixed accounts which allow for building of connections. With a fixed account you can follow, send messages, and share content with your own followers. 4chin doesn’t have fixed accounts so it doesn’t allow for social features. This is why everyone calls each other nigger all the time you stupid nigger
>>537521043Fuck off cunt 8=====>, hows that for a passive aggressive post faggot. 4chan is according to the defition classified as a type of social media as seen here >>537520973
>>537515280Social media requires a connection to your real life. Message boards are not social media
>>537521266there's no social networking component so it's not especially social media
>>537515280I thought it was anonymous's personal diary save a couple tripfags
>>537521266>Appeal to authority Not an argument kid
>>537520973Now do women you fucking tranny faggot
attaching IRL identities to online anything was always retarded and it still is
>>537521376As oppose ot what, appeal to your opinion? Which I don't give a fuck about? LMAO at you! >>537521316Kek the day I'll take an opinion from a poor shitty country like yours is the day ill die jungle monkey.
>>537519045>What's social about it?I call other anons niggers.Also are you retarded?Who are you speaking to? Almost... like... you're..... SOCIALIZING on the internet.... retarded nigger...
>>537516443Trvke
>>537515280I've wondered if there's an algorithm for 4chan's catalog. is your catalog the same as my catalog? is my catalog the same as someone else's on the other side of the world?are there different versions of 4chan depending on where you are?
There's no network on 4chanYou can link to other posts but they die
>>537521498Yer? What about /soc/ faggot.
>>537515651Are news websites social media because they have a comment section on their articles?
>>537521266Now post their definition of "vaccine" and we can both laugh at their authority over meaning. 4chan does not fit the norm as social media due to its anti identity culture. Other sites encourage/enforce an identity, this place calls you a glowy/shill/fag for even having one. Its pretty anti social, the people from /soc/ dont even want to know you, they just want your boy hole.
>>537521636Can you share videos and photos in the comment section? Are you perhaps fucking stupid?
>>537521485I guarantee if we had a "catalogue screenshot" thread, you'd see tons of threads in other people's catalogues you won't be able to find on yours. Noticed this trend due to the sheer amount of personally-targeted threads that have appeared in the last three years.
>>537515280>Is 4chan social media?no, because it's not intrinsically tied to identity, which seems to be a definitive quality of social mediasee Wikipedia:>Social media started in the mid-1990s with the invention of platforms like Classmates.com, and SixDegrees.com. While instant messaging and chat clients existed at the time, SixDegrees was unique as it was the first online service designed for people to connect using their actual names instead of anonymously>If not, what is it?an anonymous image board, conceptually and implementationally closer to a BBS or forum than established corporate social media platforms like Twitter/Instagram/Facebook/Myspaceeven if we don't necessitate a hard real-world identity link being necessary... there aren't even any profiles here, nor other social media functions likes feeds, or followersit's not social media any more than a BBS, or a MUD set in an alternate reality (because that's largely what it is), are social mediait simply facilitating being able to talk to another human being on the internet does not make it 'social media', otherwise 'net send' was somehow social media and I'd like to see somebody argue that
I'm posting from my new yacht while a Taiwanese tranny blows me. But no one will believe it.
>>537515280> Is 4chan social media? If not, what is it?It's Hospital for dumbest motherfucker on planet earth.
>>537521691>anti social,Might want to look up the meaning of that word buckoo since you're using it in the wrong context. Again everything you say is just your opinion.
>social media
>>537521463you're being reductionist, social media has a specific meaning
>>537521772antisocial/ăn″tē-sō′shəl, ăn″tī-/adjectiveShunning the society of others; not sociable.Hostile to or disruptive of the established social order; marked by or engaging in behavior that violates accepted mores.gangs engaging in vandalism and other antisocial behavior.Antagonistic toward or disrespectful of others; rude.(You) dont even agree with their definitions. But it is ironic.
>>537515473It's a bulletin board system (bbs). It's the current evolution of what people used to mainly do when the Internet first began. Post messages to each other. Tim burners lee did that at the particle accelerator I think but it was a physics bulletin board not sure
The fact is you can show your bussy here on /b/, and others can do the same. You can share videos, you can say your opinions. You can get banned by jannies. And yes passable trannies are real women. A warm bussy hole is what anons here need.
>>537515280Kek, reddit is the most conformist normalfag NPC-tier site in existence. Who do they think they are?
>>537521895That definition is fine and 4chan is a website of peace.
>>537515280We don't have upvotes here. How could this ever be considered social media if we don't have upvotes?
>>537521969Extremely peaceful, one might say.
>>537521636yes. some people post just there.
>>537522012Goddam I love lashing out and insulting others here. When its done to other Australians they fight back but everyone else just takes it. Its quite strange.
>>537521709Lets see if it falls under the retarded definition you posted earlier.>websites and computer programs that allow people to communicate and share information, opinions, pictures, videos, etc. on the internet, especially social networking websitesSo the news article comment section allows you to communicate, share information, opinions, if you really wanted to, you could share videos and pictures by posting a link directly to said media. Sounds like social media to me if we go by what you posted.
I just pooped it was medium sized ball poopie smell wasn't the worst I've made
>>537522270Aussies are just normalized. We reached a point in clown world where you have to be an actual animal to get a rise out of me.
>>537522463>allow people to communicate and share informationYou cannot share information in a comment section on a news article as the information is already provided in the article making that redundant. Semantics yaddaa yadda
>>537522600One time this I made an aus/pol/ thread and another Australian kept spamming his thread. So I reported it, then his thread was removed as spam, and he kept changing IP's and I kept reporting and he kept getting banned and each time he was seething so much he intentionary was breaking rules over and over again. My fav part was when he said >"HOW DARE YOU BE SUCH A SMUG CUNT" and then he started lashing out at jannies. Holy fuck it was the funniest shit I have ever witnessed. This in comparison is just sad.
>>537515280By definition? Yes. You are technically using social media while lurking this shithole. Is it as effective and profitable as social media? No. 4chan was popular for a moment for a reason: to turn the whole internet as 4chan.It's like jeets in 1st world country, you send them to corrupt and destroy, it happened with the open and popularizarion of 4chan.Election tourists, tumblr diaspora, newfags, gamegate, etc, it was planned and worked and we see the result. And yes, jews were involved, check how many mods and jannies are circunsized chosen people.It is what it is, I guess.
>>537522671That's the dumbest shit I've ever read, you can post whatever you want in a comment. You can provide more context, maybe a link to a similar story. Your comment could be totally irrelevant too, it's your canvas to smear your shit onto, no rules only tools.
>>537522262So any website where someone can leave a comment is social media now? Is stack overflow social media, how about github?
>>537522910Thats just like your opinon MANNN
>>537515280Anonymity, outside of the rare attention whore, or a fellow sperg who does big projects to share with the community
>>537515280Idk, all I know is that reddit is for giant fags,
>>537522826Here is some perspective. There is no difference between what Aussies do for fun online vs what bots/jeets spam post 2019. I am saying there is no longer just a few clowns in the circus, but a continent of them and their mass of digital skin walkers. Ray Gun making a joke of Break Dancing at the Olympics was funny and still is, but you got to step it up.
>>537515280The more a poster on any forum defends anti white attitudes, the quieter they get when the power to issue currency out of thin air and charge interest gets brought up. Tell everyone. Throw it in the faces of the egalitarians that they can't have that conversation because it reveals Jews to be in charge for at least 3,000 years.
>>537521485Cloudflare cookies are here, same with 4plebs. If parallel reality 4chan is happening id expect it being done unbeknownst to 4chan, cloudflare decrypts your traffic, does something unknown with it, sends it to 4chan, 4chan sends its response using cloudflare cdn, tampers it, and gives you parallel reality 4chanThis doesnt have to be an unknown if one goes with hashchans, which defeats the cloudflare monopoly
>>537515280Social media is about manipulation to gain the most upvoots and clicks and likes and shares and so on. It's a rat race for the ego.4chan is all about sharing ideas on their own merit and either trolling with them and shitposting about them, or effortposting and redpilling people with those ideas.Because tripfagging is gay as fuck and has been treated that way for 23 years now, nobody stands to gain any personal or social credit. The only measure of success is the amount of (you)s you get, but you'll never be able to brag about it or boast that you're so fucking based for getting 20 (you)s.The only things to gain from it, are the informational spoils of the conversation themselves. Knowledge. Gnosis.The last thing social media is, is gnostic. But inadvertently, 4chan is.
