It’s likely that there will never be a site like 4chan again. But everything now—from X and YouTube to global politics—seems to carry its toxic legacy.

    I remember when /b/ was good. But then that “moot” newbie came in, and ruined things forever.

    …jokes aside I’m going to miss 4chan. Or at least the 4chan from the late 00s ~ early 10s, that I used periodically; it was already problematic, but as other users here said it was a unique experience.

    See ya, space cowboys.

        Perfect analogy. I still used /vg/ and very rarely /a/, but nowhere as much as I did before. Methheads moved in, I moved out, and now the house burned.

        …fuck, I can’t triforce either!

        (About the -fag suffix: sorry to be “that guy” but let’s avoid using it, OK? It’s 2025, and we aren’t in 4chan, that implicit “-fag means nothing” context is gone.)
