how does using imageboards many hour a day influence mentality/behaviour/mental health?

It used to make me emotionally tired but now I take everything with a grain of salt and try to troll as much as possible and have fun. I browse about 1.5 hrs a day, less on weekends.

Lemme think
>20 minutes in the morning as I sip my coffee
>10 minutes on the bus unless an asian girl sits next to me
>~1 hour throughout the school day when I should be working
>2 hours on and off once I get home
so like 3.5 hours I need help guys

Beats the shitbout of Facebook. Also, we talk maths here and dumb scientific questions give me better arguments for when they arise in the real world. I would say this particular image board increases my arguing skills.

This entire post but make the 1.5 hours 10 hours instead and make the years spent here so far 12
If I had put the same dedication towards math I'd probably be the second coming of Euler by now, or a millionaire at worst if it was in business and crypto.

I know the pic is supposed to be about 4chan specifically, but it's also an eerie reflection of the broader political unconscious even among SJWs and normies. Why are we collectively becoming so alienated and hostile?

I've only been here for a couple days and I find this sentiment agreeable. The level of blatant retardation expressed by some anons has forced me to use my brain more in the past few days than it had been in a month or so.

Are you saying that 90% of the world's population is schizophrenic? Statistically, it's something like less than 3%. Yet, if you go on the internet, it appears that it's something closer to 100%

Positive aspects:
Keeps me doing something entertaining
Works well with the *type* of free time I have
Works with my interests
Easy
Teaches me better ways to argue
Teaches others truth about life

Negatives:
Known to induce
anger
Irritatability
Addictive behavior
Paranoia


Other than that it really isn't that bad. I suppose I've adopted some of the cultural aspects of online culture such as lingo, but I don't think it's affected my thinking unless there were good arguments to change my mind.

Pros:The relaxed nature of shitposting, even when woven through serious conversations, is fun to read/participate in.
Cons:This also leads to me sinking unproductive hours online. The nature of imageboards also feeds into my habit of looking for pics to save, wasting even more time.
