/lit/ - Literature

>>14065832
Any books for this feel?
Here's one from Twitter. Yes, recommend underage Twitter users to invade this board. No wonder this place is so shit. How long has this been going on?

>>14065835
/lit/ has been one of the newest/youngest/most retarded boards for years because "wow their book list is actually like really good and stuff even though they must just be pretending and its also like totally the marxist place we can colonize to epic own the nazis"

These are the people who take up the majority of the board. This makes me nauseous. Only within the past week have I realized how massive this cancer is. I look at Reddit and Twitter for the first time in my life and there are THOUSANDS ON THOUSANDS of users with pepe and wojak profile pictures posting about 4chan and trying to be as witty as possible in order to get more upvotes and retweets. When did this start? Did this start when r/4chan become popular? When did that happen? 2014? 2015? This actually makes me nauseous. I think I'm done with this place.

>>14065867
There's nowhere else to go

Are you retarded OP? 4chan has been like this since 2008, and got worse after 2016.

This must be why this board features such rampant narcissism and blogging.
And no one even cares except me.

>>14065867
These people are so desperate for retweets and upvotes that it's disgusting. It's all "teehee I secretly browse 4chan too guise, I'm secretly edgy, and I'm going to admit this buy posting le epic froge and bald chemo feelsguy everywhere! Teehee 4chan culture is so quirky and edgy! Pls upvote"

>>14065852

>Using twitter for anything but stalking kigu cosplayers

Pathetic, desu

>>14065879
Thanks for proving my point

>>14065878
The only people who even use pepe and wojak anymore are redditors and twitter users. "Teehee I have to post pepe and wojak on every trollpost I make to prove that I'm one of them and didn't just come straight from Twitter/reddit!" Every genuine 4chan user is disgusted by pepe and wojak by now.

This is proof that original 4chan members are outnumbered by reddit/Twitter users who come here.

Phoneposting and reddit killed 4chan

Where else to go? I've tried the other chans but they are either too inactive or too pedo

the answer is, we will never know
But those people who have to make an entire thread about them leaving this place, they are for sure staying here forever

The thread with the disgustingly obese woman with large breasts and all the cumbrain adoration was proof to me that reddit has taken over. The first post was something you would see on reddit. Two years ago, Jezebel posters were banned.

Anti-elitism is exactly what killed 4chan. Newcomers used to get weeded out before they could get comfortable and if they had any sense they knew not to post. "Lurk moar" needs to come back.

I know every redditor is by default a faggot but my god this is the worst type. They think they're so ahead of everyone else bc "hehe frog funny le edgy maga meme lolz" holy shit I truly hate this place. Most of them came from that stupid fucking yt video called "the year when 4chan won" and I'm glad that shit got deleted.

Irony killed 4chan

Most litfags are not old vanilla but new cool kids enjoying their puberty in secret club. These days even 3yo know how to use tablet and internet so be prepared to see many pubescent topics. We should be glad the 8yo knows nothing of literature or cares about it.

The easy solution would be to make 4chins as non intuitive to use as possible so it filters most of normalfags and young.

>>14066037
>The easy solution would be to make 4chins as non intuitive to use as possible
The beginning of the end was back in ~2009 when moot deleted the sidebar and made the new homepage

>>14066037
Defaulting back to frames, disabling (you) notifications, or removing the archives/catalog would go a long way to frustrating a lot of moron users that need instant gratification and drivd them off. That, or a system where detecting cookies for reddit, ifunny, twitter, etc. creates a cookie for 4chan that blocks site access, analogous to sadpanda. There are apparently a ton of idiots that get filtered by the panda, despite how easy it is to bypass or find information on it with a quick google search.

>>14066079
I like the catalog feature but I would give it up to make the site ugly and inhospitable again. Unfortunately gookmoot just wants to sell ads so nothing like that will never happen.

>>14065832
People with sense moved on to more obscure image boards. 4chan has been in the news for a decade now. Anyone and their grandma know about it at this point.

Due to media pressure and monetary interests moderation becomes stricter and stricter over time. The culture here is not much different to reddit at this point.
But you can't blame the owners for doing so, just look at what happened to 8 chan. It got nuked permanently from the entire internet just because it actually allowed free speech, attracting all the people who are not allowed to discuss their political ideas anywhere else. 4chan used to be as free as that, not just when it comes to political ideas, but also general dissident and disruptive ideas. You won't see any of those on here anymore.

>>14065899

>>14066292
>Only reason to use pc for this site is for creating oc
But Anon, OC was the backbone of the site in its heyday. Without archives and inflated bump limits, OC was necessary to be remembered for more than a thread or two, and drove creativity in the board communities. Now everyone just recycles the same tired memes from 10 years ago, and people craving recognition just post opinions guarenteed to get (You)s rather than make the effort to produce fresh and innovative content.

Phone posting has killed creativity with a lack of tools to participate with, and has opened the floodgates to many normalfags that would otherwise not stick around on their computers all day to shitpost (as opposed to the phones they always have on hand).

Worst of all, since everyone has their phone on them at all times of the day, the site is now flooded at all hours by low quality posts, pushing meaningful or exciting content off the board with repetitive topics, generals, shitposts, and other things that fly in the face of the site's original purpose of transient and creative anonymous community.

>>14066079

>>14066145
>It got nuked permanently from the entire internet just because it actually allowed free speech, attracting all the people who are not allowed to discuss their political ideas anywhere else.
yes and it became a hotbed for mass shooters so I guess even free speech has its limits

This guy's full of shit. I started using 4chan when I was 15 and 11 years later I'm a super insecure loser who's deathly afraid of all non-anonymous social interaction.

>>14065835
since 06-07. You'd know that if you weren't a newfag.

I hate twitter more than reddit. I’m absolutely fucking disgusted by the twitter vermin that have polluted the entire internet with their complete fucking garbage. Everyone, everywhere has been ruined by that stupid fucking site.

Every aspect of my life seems to have been invaded and made worse by twitter. You turn on the news and they’re arguing about a tweet, you turn on the sports channel and they’re arguing about a tweet, you go out with your friends and they’re either sitting on Twitter, showing you a “hilarious” tweet they say, or regurgitating an opinion word for word they got from twitter while passing it off as their own.

A decade ago I could escape to thei internet to get away from the normalnigger menace, now the average normalnigger hasa worse internet addiction than I did back then. All day and all night they stare at their screens consuming mindless trash on their faggot little social media websites. Look at this person’s “take”, look at this hilarious “meme” that compares two different things, look at this reaction image from a totally different context that I’m applying to this current situation. Fuck you, fuck your “takes”, fuck your “memes”, and fuck your little social media profiles.

Normalniggers ruin everything, without exception. When the iPhone came around and the normalnigger finally got introduced to the internet the internet became a reflection of the normalnigger’s disgusting brain. Everything is highly centralized around like three websites, you can’t say anything controversial or you’re banned, and you always have to have your little picture next to any opinion you offer (“How can I know if what he’s saying is true if I don’t know whether or not I should hate him for being ugly?”). Fuck normalniggers, I really despise them with every ounce of my being.

>>14066145
It was shit, board owners were allowed to place arbitrary rules which were far more restrictive and numerous than anything here. Never saw as many ridiculous filters being used. Oh and it was actually dead as in barely any traffic on most boards.

>>14067457
>even free speech has its limits

>>14065867
r/4chan once provided to me some genuine comedy, someone here linked to a comment section they had and the whole thread was them just repeating the Joker bit about 'Im going to say the word' from /tv/(like literally the whole thread was just repetitions of this joke, i have no idea) and then down near the bottom there was a deleted comment with a bunch of replies to it saying stuff like 'woah man that's not cool you can't actually say it, that makes you an asshole', where evidently some guy had posted 'nigger'.

Like what is the psychological profile of people who find it hilarious to hint at saying nigger but still consider the word some kind of evil talisman that is going to harm whoever is around it. Are they all 12 years old or something

>>14067709
Agreed, Twitter is a scourge. Idiots have found that if they get a handful of people to post fake outrage about anything on Twitter, they can get things banned or cancelled. News sites run stories that are mostly just Twitter reposts. It's no surprise that comedy as a genre has died in the past decade.

>>14067843
Which is weird isn't it. the first few years I was here I wouldn't go on /pol/ because it was just the nazi board in my mind. It was some time in early 2014 I started going because of the Ukraine civil war stuff, there would be interesting threads where they posted youtube channels of Ukrainian civilians uploading what was happening.

/pol/ has been diluted a lot since Trump but jumping from Reddit to full on 'nigger hate' and holohoax threads seems like a bit of a culture shock. A board like /tv/ seems a much better entry point for normals, lots of innocuous threads about braindead movies/tv shows, the meme culture there is mostly childish and simple, and the mods actually delete and ban racism in recent years. /tv/ does have the last contingent of actual pedoposters but they kind of stick to their one thread at a time and they rarely post illegal stuff.

>>14067843

>>14067863
/b/ functioned as the containment board when I got here but it's effectively just a bad porn board now
/pol/ is the ebin subversive board popularized in media depictions of edgy 4chan, so that's where people start now
Then they wander here and sperg out about how people who have been posting here for years belong on reddit because they don't act like retard /pol/acks

>>14067874
>>14067887
Hmm, may have gotten that impression by the fact that /b/ doesn't even bother to archive threads; probably because most of it is just actual shitposting.

Appallingly bad taste.

>>14068056
Because politics went insane in the past 10 years. All the stuff that had been slowly developing in various university departments for decades suddenly exploded altogether into the mainstream, and at the same time the reaction to this stuff that had been slowly forming on the right cohered as well somewhat.

In 2009 you would literally never hear in your day to day life stuff like 'white male privilege', nobody talked about this stuff outside a few small circles. 20 year old men tend to not give that much of a shit about politics, but this stuff can hardly be ignored

>>14068106
>university departments
lol, anon. no. they're useless, and unruly students are a symptom of the real fault: money in politics, and the idea of revolution every four years. the 44th president was a "community organizer" marxist who actually DID seize the means of production in the healthcare industry. college departments aren't responsible for what's happening to us. the two fucking retarded parties leading the [lack of] discussion are.

>>14068141
All that stuff 100% comes from uni departments and is often 2-4 decades old.

>>14068141
>the 44th president was a "community organizer" marxist who actually DID seize the means of production in the healthcare industry.
all obamacare did was mandate people to buy private insurance

>>14068160
All the present-day extreme positions of the right and left have been around for decades, but social media has allowed them to spread and flourish, and end up as the actual policy platforms of major parties. I'd blame the introduction of smartphones, Twitter and Facebook more than anything else.

>>14068205
Social media might have played a part, but it's all the prestigious newspapers that actually control this process. the NYT and its buddies adopt the language and frameworks from the universities and set the tone of discourse for the mainstream.

Pol is fine, even good for what it is, it's just a big board with a lot of retards. Plenty of decent stuff there especially for 'happenings'. The main thing is the pol bogeyman combined with reinforcement of that by certain types of crossposters (that feed off the bogeyman). The whole site has increasingly gone downhill, just that the locus of the site atm is pol. Even so, I'd say there are worse boards, all of the boards under 'Japanese Culture' and 'Video Games' seem to attract the worst posters by far. But 4chan is very popular so naturally most of its userbase is fucking retarded. The anonymity and culture of it contributes to the newly arrived retards thinking its good to be unhinged and stupid with no temperament.

>>14066145
Smaller imageboards are dogshit though because they're just echochambers, often enforced by the moderation. With 4chan you can have heaps of actually smart and unique people posting together just as a result of having a lot of users. With others you get 2-6 posters that don't fit the collectivethink, and they either leave or get removed. I'm pretty sure they're like this because some wouldbe colonisers got scared of 4chan and instead colonised other imageboards. You often see that they have a problem with 4chan and it's not like oldfags dissing what it has become and romanticising the past, it's more like twitterusers getting mad about someone saying nigger or making a joke or most importantly, questioning their ideas and beliefs.

how do we fix this?

What are you on OP? 4chan is not popular, recommended to people, or even looked up to. It's always been trash (for the most part), and always will be. The reputation of /pol/ and the other popular boards is not a positive one.

Stop with the damn hysterics and get a grip. The containment boards do their job and the general edginess that permeates this abortion of a site keeps the fags away. That's how it's always been, and that's how it always will be.

>>14065867
Daily reminder that Katy Perry literally posted Pepe on Twitter 2014. Pepe grew out of 4chan ages ago.

>>14070491
4chan will never grow out of pepe, the smug but repulsive pepe basking in his own and the world's absurdity is the embodiment of the entire website

>>14067863
/b/ lost its place as the entry board a long time ago. For a while it was /v/ instead, and now it is /pol/.

>>14070232

Collapse of the world order, basically. This is a symptom of a greater, spiritual problem. How can you fix something if this was its inevitable trajectory? Internet culture was allowed to flourish for long enough. The freedom and inter-connectivity we enjoyed was not for our benefit, but was instated for the future of our enslavement. The only reason 4chan was exceptional was because it had not been compromised yet.

>>14070502
Maybe not, but as I said Pepe have grown out of 4chan. He's used by normies, he's posted by celebrities, he have been the image of the alt-right and is an icon among the Hong Kong protesters.

>>14070573
It's a form of social media that clicks with you; simple as. If you had a different temperament you might be addicted to facebook or insta or fortnite.

4chan is like smoking you can never entirely quit it.There are times where i dont browse this site at all sometimes for a year but i always come back since i have been browsing this shit hole for more than a decade and it became a habit for me.

Incase some of you don't know there is a female majority board /ic/. It's mostly teenage artsy girls

I dont think so.

>>14070722
4chan's actually pretty female-heavy, relative to other similar sites. It's genuinely RELATIVELY diverse. Only fifty percent of visitors are Burgerclaps, and only eighty percent have schlongs. Reddit is like 90% Burgerclap and 99% schlong-wielding (one way or another).

>>14070749
There was even a thread where femanons were posting their hands holding a pencil. They certainly were not tranny hands.

>>14070722
No it fucking isn't.

> 4chan used to be as free as that, not just when it comes to political ideas, but also general dissident and disruptive ideas. You won't see any of those on here anymore.

>>14070305
you do know what the original intentions for this site were, right anon?

4chan has been dead since the 2016 election.

I wish. I never take shit personally online, but I’m very sensitive IRL. If only it carried over.

>>14065832
>Viral culture killed it
Cringe. The /leftypol/ or Pajeet (possibly Pajeet) mods killed it.

>>14070722
I think nowadays /fa/ is a female majority board too. Shame, it was one of the only places you could discuss male fashion effectively, now it's infested by women asking what looks cute on them, trannies and streetwear zoomies.

>Bullying them doesn't even work. People have tried that for years and it hasn't worked.
I see hardly any bullying. I've come to see that you can't show any mercy to these people. You have to dig as deep into their insecurities as possible and tell them to kill themselves.

God I hate this cataloguing of all your politics, religion, and philosophy. It's like all those shitty subcultures (emo, goth, chav, etc.) got replaced by even shittier ones based on skimming Wikipedia articles and regurgitating talking points

Zeronet.

(...), when they'll possibly shut down 4chan in the near future, like they did to eightchan.

I can't believe it turned out that the most preserved and/or pure oldfag board is /vp/

>tfw the peak era of the internet is already over
Only corporate sterilization/censorship and continued development of (((advertising algorithms))) that are practically spyware remain
I plan to get out of it all a year or two from now, maybe have one computer running linux but no social media accounts at all just an email account since it's considered necessary for jobs in this day and age

>4chan is not popular, recommended to people
Retard. You are PURPOSEFULLY ignoring all of the other evidence I have presented in this thread. I chose that specific thread since he specifically mentions /lit/. Look at how popular r/4chan on reddit is. You can't tell me that people don't migrate here after seeing how popular r/4chan is. Over 1,100,000 people are subscribed to that subreddit. Traffic to 4chan has increased over 5-6 times from 2012 to 2018

The Internet as a whole is dead. This graph says it all.

The more people you have online, the greater the percentage of users that are normalfags, the greater the corporate interest in co-opting it for commercial purposes.

>>14072320
this. if you didnt start cashing out and securing your assets around 5 years ago then you dont understand the internet. you are the trolled and the normie. its something you never can replicate in the new economy built on replication. none of those neet days were wasted, you were there for a reason. and for now relish the ruins. we may have been guinea pigs of an experimental time of cyberspace but you cant cheat time. kids will try to reenact it like hippy boomer kids and genx goth kids. its already happening.
