This board was always slow but now its pretty much deserted Did people just stop traveling after the pamademic?
>>2847749People stopped using 4chan after it introduced a 5+ minute wait time for new IPsAlso the mods on this board are very trigger happy
>>2847749>Did people just stop traveling after the pamademic?4chan killed a lot of countries ability to post without the pass, essentially meaning unless you pay for the 4chan pass, lucky enough to have an IP 'trusted', or have your own personal VPN server; you're unlikely able to post.Found this out last year when I was traveling in Asia, virtually every country I was in blocked me from posting and wanted me to get the pass, said fuck that and just remoted into my home PC in the USA.
>>2847749/trv/ is one of the best boards though? Slow is good. Look at the typical amount of text people write here, I'd wager it's more than most boards.
>>2847749u wotThis board years back used to get literally like five posts a day. It's lightning fast in comparison nowadays. Quality went down the drain to match, of course.
>>2847749The board is lightning fast and turned into /r9k/ meets rebbid sexpat. I miss the time of quality /trv/ without all those deranged freaks
>>2847749Having to give the US access to your social media handles probably isn't going to help tourism coming into the US, the sheer backlog of doomscrolling thru Stacey's flavour of the month E-Activism alone will make ESTAS rubbish to get.
>>2847852Most anons here travel to SEA, not to America
>>2847852>Having to give the US access to your social media handles probably isn't going to help tourism coming into the USIsn't this literally for shitholes in the middle east and africa, last I checked it was just an idea floating around not even a requirement.Oh no someone think of the poor hekkin Samolians!!1
>>2847750This is a lie. The mods here just delete the endless deluge of losers posting about asian transsexuals
>>2847852UK and other European countries have to do this as well.
I remember when it used to be slower. If anything, it started getting faster after 2018. It's too fast even now.
>>2849238What> This board is slower than /n/ now
>>2850467That comparison means nothing to me, I've never been to /n/. /trv/ was peacefully slow pre-2018. It started getting faster post-2018. It reached top speed around 2021-2022. It might be slower now, but it's still faster than pre-2018. I want to go back to 2017 speeds.
>>2850500I just want to see more high IQ people sharing their travel experiences instead of retards bullshitting and memeing the same tired old discussions time and again>singapore sucks>solo travel is cringe>Place, Japan!!!!1!1!!!>is 27 too old to stay in a hostel?>how do I meet girls in [X country]?>China numba won! >China worst, muh gutter oil>travel map thread where everybody has somehow been to 35+ countries (but never has any proof)>weed lmao, can I bring it into [X country]?>Literally any Eastern European thread: muh ziggers muh hohols
>>2850500That is not what if feels like to me, in 2012 or so I was posting some van stuff, then in 2016 I started posting from mexico once in a while , beach camping photos, restaurants in La Paz, stuff like that. Did not feel nearly this slow to me
>>2850584meh, wrote up a thread outlining a trip through Egypt, but nobody really responded, lol. I'll get back to it if it doesn't fall off the index. Even had a China trip ready to fire afterwards, but I guess it's just not interesting enough for the audience here. Low laying fruit drowns out all discussion on the board it seems :/
>>2847750>the mods on this board are very trigger happyThe mod deletes anything not strictly informative. Banter and shit-talk is deleted which kills what makes 4chan 4chan. It's also the dumbest approach on the deadest board.
>>2850837>p-p-p-pplease let me endlessly post ragebait, eceleb gossip and incel seetheWhy don't you go somewhere and post about it instead?
>>2850843>p-p-p-pplease let me endlessly post ragebait, eceleb gossip and incel seetheAdd place, wapaaaan and incoherent nonsense by Tardguard of Cult of Schizophrenia and you have pretty much 100% of the board.
>>2850820i enjoyed your egypt thread
>>2850820The thread/trip report has 5 gigantic and a lot of smaller problems:1. GF mentioned and it's neither a tismo Place, Japan, slum dwelling digital nomad nor a tranny fucking sexpest story. (You just lost 70% of the audience.)2. here's maybe 30 poster on this board that actually travel of those 10 have a attention span over 5sec and if you're lucky you will find 5 that can actually read on the level of a 5th grader. (now we are at 90%) 3. It's about Egypt, so yeah it has the same pull factor as Magaluf or Benidorm. (make it 95%)4. You've been there, you speak some of the language and it's a pretty normie trip. It's smooth sailing with no surprises, adventures or actual problems. Me growing up in italy(Meran), speaking fluent italian going back to italy guarantees a boring thread. (We are at 98%)5. Your writing style is uhm interesting you jump all over the place. Irrelevant side notes turn into paragraphs and what could be interesting is cut off (And it's 99.9999%)
Serious question, 4chan in general seems to be dead outside the main boards. Does anybody post on other forums/IBs? At this point I think I'd be down to jump on some boomer forum.
>>2850887absolute brainrot. tiktok is more your speed.
>>2851030The whole internet's dead. Social media has sucked up everything and goymaxxed everybody.
>>2850820I'll give it a bump friend.
