Threads on here linger for days now, this board used to be extremely popular where you'd be lucky if your shitty thread lasted 90 minutes, now anyone can post some bullshit and it'll last half a week. Where did all the people go? Discord? Reddit? There's really no obvious 1:1 replacement for this site, so it's kind of confusing to me

X, probably.
But the slow kill of 4chan is intentional, I think. I also heared masses of people get banned for no reason.

The topics here are shit, that's why people left.

It should filter the bots, not the Anons.

The election refugee types left for xitter now that it's lenient on edgy stuff. Many of these were also warded off by things like extremely long wait times, restricted posting in incognito mode, the hack and frequent captcha changes.
A lot of other posters just post less frequently since there isn't much to discuss.
>>
>>83937527
How long does it take you to solve a captcha?

>>83937561
Where though? Aside from niche hobbyist forums and altchans with barely any activity, there isn't really much out there.
>>
Half of this site is just ragebait tiktok and twitter screenshots now

It's a complete wasteland.

I see this with some hobbies, most notably Ham radio. Boomers throw out ideas on how to attract teenagers to the hobby that never pan out.
The truth is, both ham radio and 4chan are extremely niche. Not everyone needs a place on the internets to call someone else a nigger kike. Normies don't belong here and we shouldn't lay out a welcome mat for them.

>>83937562
telegram, reddit and yeh niche forums
It's much easier to find a mathematicians' forum than to search for mathematicians on 4chan, don't you agree?

I actually never did that.

Threads are not lasting nore than 3 1/2 hours. Sort by bump and scroll down.

i am in general
All of 4Chan's features (collecting intellectuals, trolling, underground memes, etc.) are no longer its specific feature and can be replaced by any platform. It makes much more sense to create a forum of 30-40 former 4Chan members, adding new smart people, than to sit on 4Chan.

I use 4chan for entertainment, so that I don't feel like drinking alone. And for shitposting.
It's rare that I have a reasonable conversation with an Anon, but that's not a problem.

I think this is a form of entertainment that could easily be replaced by other platforms \

The current oldest threads are from Sunday, Wednesday, and Thursday of last week.

The internet as a whole is on its death bed. What was once a near infinite realm, is now a handful of near dead remnants slowly rotting away. There used to be dozens of active image boards, most are gone now, and the few that remain are lucky to get a handful of posts a day.

It's great because it means I spend much more time on actual hobbies instead of reading sad blogposts and bait.
>>
>>83937349
the real robots killed themselves and psyoppers and normies pissed on their graves for too long. the robots who didn't moved elsewhere, or stopped seeking social interactions
>>
>>83937518
No it really isn't. There's a 50/50 chance every time you make a thread here that it's going to be hijacked by faggots talking about BBC or whatever. That doesn't happen on most other sites.
>>
It's just the new captchas cleaning things up.
Sometimes I want to make a low effort reply and I get asked to pick the image with 2 stars with 4 spikes and I realize it's not worth it.
>>
>>83937349
Despite it being anonymous, there isn't really much in the way of high quality or fruitful exchanges.
>>
>>83938633
That's only for coombait threads with lust provoking images.
That still isn't as bad as other sites obsessing over internet points, followers and shilling crypto coins or gambling sites in unrelated threads.

Good, this isn't /b/. I started coming here to have actual discussions with people.
Sure, that was like 10 years ago now and you are right that the quality has declined,
but the board being spammed with less shitty threads constantly is not a bad thing.

>now anyone can post some bullshit and it'll last half a week
I have noticed this too. It seems like the dumbest threads will last multiple days.
But once again, you can literally just hide them if you dont like them.
For example, many of the folks here filter out that delusional moron Mike who makes the letter threads.

>Where did all the people go? Discord? Reddit? There's really no obvious 1:1 replacement for this site, so it's kind of confusing to me
Maybe the 2016 normie invasion is finally ending. Is 4chins finally fading out of the public mind again?
If so, good. Maybe a new golden age is on the horizon, though that is just wishful thinking on my part.
I would do anything to wake up tomorrow and see this site has returned to pre-2014 quality. Those were the days.

incel9k dying is a good sign, anon.

Phone posters can't post anymore and are too poor for PCs. Everyone who had a PC who posted got bored of seeing 15+ year old porn and social media ragebait so they left.
Another chunk is perma banned for posting a 16 year olds tits even though now /b/ is nothing but AI generated CP being posted all day. The rules are completely to shield from litigation and no one on the site actually cares if it's posted.
Then all the hormonal teenagers flooded the site asking for sauce on 20 year old images nonstop all day long, every single thread is teenagers gooning over something.

The last gens have given birth to sex obsessed neurotic fiends.
