The entire catalog would be filled with Cabo Verde threads and multiple 500+ posts
>>155323505/spuh/ is dying and that's okay. We had a good run.We might not even be here for 2030
Italy vs England was the last heartbeat of this board. It is what it is.
i feel like 4chan as a whole has been dying for a while. seems like every memelord is on twitter/X now.
>>155323505Gooners have ruined this board and old posters have a wife and kids now (except me).
>>155323720It's this. I don't know why since twitter sucks, maybe it's all the gooner shit like this anon said >>155323746
>>1553235054chan is dead
>>155323505mate we're in ruins this is the best we got /sp/ actually has it way better than most boards
nah. maybe if cabo had won.
>>155323794You can get paid for shitposting
>>155323796ThisThe entire website is pretty much dead, even /v/ is slow most days
Today is a HUGE day for the WNBA
>>155323897>>155323844>>155323796>>155323720>>155323606Good. Can’t wait for the rest of you to fuck off and leave so I can have my samefag threads in peace
>>155323796when did it die? I left 6 years ago, returned for the WC and was shocked when I saw how dead this place is.
>>155323505The sharty hack and the reveal Epstein was behind /pol/ killed this site.Exspect it's to be even more dead when the EU just bans all of 4chan.
>>155324020I would say 2024 when jannies started getting stricter, and also the site got hacked shut down for like two weeks in 2025 and many anons never came back after that.
>>155324020I think the new captcha really hurt even tho with time its gotten much better
>>155324020slowly over the years but mostly in the last 2 years i guess. AI slop era + all the new captchas + email verification + oldfags moving on are all to blame
>>155323794>since twitter sucksBecause you can monetize autism via blue checks, unlike 4chin
>>155323505I miss the good bantz. There's been some moments, once in a while, but nowhere near as many as there should.
>>155324263really? I've never been on twattert. autist
>>155323505I'm literally an Unc, and might even be here in 2030. The youfs don't come to 4chin like before too. We had a glorious decade anyway.
>>155323873>>155324263I didn't know that, it makes alot of sense now.
>>155323505The internet used to be less brown
>>155323746> (except me)I hate to know that feel.
[spoiler]4chan hasn't been the same since the hack.[/spoiler]
Every board now is dead even /pol/ whole retards immigrated to twitter
>>155324381Nah it was bad even before that
>>155324020oldfags had to move on with their lives and zoomers are allowed to be racist on instagram so they have no reason to come here
>>155324381I mean, if we want to be real, real 4chan was before the Fappening
>>155324263How come? Paying $8 per month for a blue check mark means you can get paid for achieving certain view thresholds with your posts or what?
>>155323505All of the good posters grew up and moved to X.
Well maybe if they won more people would be inclined to shitpost
>>155323505The catalog is FULL of match reactions right now, wtf are you on about?
>>155323796there is still no better place to shitpost during big events, there just isn't.
>>155324985Read the thread retard
>>155325059>Read the thread retardI won't.
zoomers are just a shit deadend generation, what do you expect?
>>155325131Sorry for calling you retard >.<
>>155323720We got too famous. Now it's a place where groups trying to influence global opinion come to fight it out. Bots, AI, paid posters, bad actors. It's just no fun anymore. The entire internet blows now.
>>155324020since the gamergate /v/irgin faggot influx and then 2016, but its been terminal since the hack earlier this yearfuck, was it last year? time fucking flies
>>155325197It's okay anon
>>155324602Via engagements, aka posting bait and having dumb people (like the ones on the internet) give you (You's) (or mentions/retweets for x)
>>155323720The new retarded captcha has made posting a chore for everyone
>>155325610>tfw the american "culture war" is jeets trolling russians trolling chinese bot farms, all under american avatars
>>155325654new captcha takes far too bloody long
>>155325610What the fuck. Is the system fully automatic? You don't need the check mark of sign up for anything in general just bait people and the cash rolls in? If so I can see why the memelords left.>>155325201This also played a big part. Astroturfing raiders and gaslighting corpos who want to turn the place into controlled opposition have moved in permanently. Glowies were old news even back in 2016.>>155327362I wouldn't go that far but pic rel might give you the big picture especially if you also check the date on it.
>>155325654the worst thing is the captcha favors people who are annoying obsessive posters and is unfavorable to new ones or anyone who posts only occasionallywith time users go down in number and qualityit's a slow death
It was dying in 2014. It has always been dead. Just enjoy the cup, you’ll be yearning for these days one day.
>>155325654THIS. Fucking retards are blaming everything and everyone but this gay ass new captcha which actually killed multiple boards
>>155328374It was already dying before the new captcha
>>155327720>Is the system fully automatic?No, you need to sign up for that and the interactioons/metrics is what determines how much you get. That's why you see a lot of blue checks being jeets and the like, because they know how to farm retards online.
>go to post>have to wait 60 seconds>lost the timing>shant post anymore
>>155323505The younger generation avoids this place like the plague because they don't want to become chuds.
>>155323505during the 2018 wc the catalog was mostly pink wojaks, all stolen from the great /biz/ depression of late 2017
we all moved to X after elon bought it and made it safe to say the nigger word
>>155331253weird to think that 4chan hasnt had an original "big" meme since the fucking wojak, decade nad a half ago
World Cup activity has not severely diminished between 2018 and now. Even with the far more comprehensive anti-botting, higher captcha and spam evasion measures, it's still at less than 20% lower activity. OP's premise is fake and gay.
>>155323505>demoralization threadsITT faggots
its honestly not that bad, peak numbers are unironically higher than most wc years apparentlythough this looks much worse for some other boards like /a/ or /g/i dont think being back to pre-2016 levels of activity is a bad thing
It's no fun allowed has been for yearsso much classic /sp/ posting isn't even possible because of muh spam filters nobody knew how much worse it would get
>>155323720The sharty hack killed the site. Most people moved onto to Instagram or back to X.
>>155332525It was never good. People always complain about "the good ol days"
/qa/ losing was the beginning of the end
>>155332495This
While I agree with most of the reasons listed above, please consider the following:>aesthetically, website is almost unchanged since 2008>functionally, website works like it’s 2008 (only short videos with no sound, small number of boards, no search engine or official archive, one picture per post, no app, etc.)>why aren’t new people coming in droves????Imagine if Twitter or YouTube still had the exact same looks and functionalities they had in 2008. It would be extremely based, but also extremely dead.Basically lazy and complacent owners failed and didn’t adapt to the new Internet.
