4chan was one of the websites on the internet.
It had text.
The text was green.
How in the fuck that hideous clash of colors gained any traction in it’s time is beyond belief.
It was good cos you couldn’t read the text.
My bad¿
You could say it was one of the websites of all time.
Are you actually banned or is that some fancy effect on your username
banned for vote manipulation with like 6-7 accounts lol
Haha wow how did you see that?
I’m a dbzer0 admin in a room with other instance admins. Saw another person report them and their SEVEN accounts, using to downvote comments they dont like lol
Wow, imagine manipulating votes on Lemmy of all places haha.
imagine the effort to switch accounts and find the exact thing to vote on over and over again…
You can also check the modlog for the reason
It contained some of the best and the worst of the internet, but its legacy is cemented with its greentexts which explores the sometimes dark and depraved aspects of us all without flinching away from it.
I believe the website has done more good than harm, but acknowledge that the harm it has inflicted has been targeted and substantial.
Why are we talking like 4chan is actually dead? It’s just offline
Apparently the source code revealed a ton of insecurities that would make it all but impossible for them to relaunch without a major redesign, or at least that’s what the actual coders that hang about here have said.
Yeah I’m sure that’s what they’ll do, but I doubt they’ll just pack it up and quit
The longer they’re down, the more people will migrate elsewhere, and some proportion of those won’t return if/when 4chan comes back.
The longer they’re down, the more people will migrate elsewhere,
Oh god… Everybody hide!
Red Alert! All hands stand to battle stations, shields up, load all torpedo bays, standby phasers, warp factor 8!
And prepare the lighsabers!
My first thought EXACTLY LOL.
nah, they’ll just redo it in Dreamweaver again.
A mix of the best and worst of humanity shoved into a small room and given no supervision
There is zero good on 4 chan. Never has been, never will be.
4chan, particularly Anonymous, has definitely done good before:
- Project Chanology
- Operation Payback
- Arab Spring Support
- Breach of HBGary Federal
and more
There is Net-zero good
Ehh it wasn’t that bad in 2004ish
They got credited for scientific research: link
Yooo that’s like, your opinion man. I’ve often encountered some legit amazing stuff there. It really is the place where 80IQ and 120IQ people mingled, with the 120IQ people pretending to be retards and the 80IQ people pretending to be smart.
Maybe nowadays, it was a very different place in 2010
It definetly was the platform ever. Like, no doubt about it.
Fed honeypot tho
It was really inspiring how many underage kids worked for the FBI, presumably went to school, & still had the time to shitpost on 4chan.
Fucking overachievers.I’m mean, if Elon can run several companies, lead a team of specialists for a government agency and still be a top ranked gamer. Anything is possible.
And be a top class international spy.
Remember when 4chan was good?
4chan was never good.
Playing capture the flag with Shia LeBoof was kinda fun tho
I once read on 4chan: “One cannot hope without suffering.” One of the realest shit I’ve ever read.
One cannot be nostalgic without hating their current circumstances.
I very much believe that there was a very short period when it first opened when it was all innocent. Then all the edge trolls took over.
Gonna miss the fake and gay greentexts
Don’t worry, the LLMs can fill that void just fine.

There was already an empty space when liveleak went under. If 4chan is gone for good, then theres nothing exciting on the internet left. Everything PG and corporate.
Yeah I legit think this is a bad thing. 4chan was bad for society but IMO it’s less so than mainstream social media. To get radicalized on 4chan you have to wade through some truly despicable shit right off the bat, where there is this friendly veneer on mainstream Internet that makes it seem safer and less horrifying even though the same underlying filth of human nature powers it all. If you encounter far right ideology on 4chan, it’s stripped of all of the edifices of respectability and it’s clear that what it is is raw unfiltered hatred. If you encounter it on Tik Tok it’s just another political viewpoint because they’re not allowed to show their true colors.
Interesting viewpoint.
You’re forgetting about the fediverse
I don’t know. It’s better here than Reddit which is why I drop by. But I think jannies here get ban happy when I break out the N word to basically say hi or close every statement with a request that the person I’m responding to may please kill themselves. Not the same.
If the n word and telling people to kill themselves is what brings you joy you may want to reevaluate your values
-
Yes
-
No.
Deal with it.

kinda hits the spot, at least IMO. nothing exciting left.
There are other chans if you’re into that.
Who is 4chan?
He got hacked by the hacker known as 4chan
*4 hackers. 4 4chan-hackers.
2 hacker 4 4chan: The channening
Each of them named chan.
I’ll do one better. Why is 4chan?
Nobody ever asks how is 4chan :(
So you’re saying Tumblr actually won all these years later?
Is 4-chan gone? gasp!?! goddammit. Don’t ‘they’ realize how many assholes and degenerates this will dump on the internet? Myself included?
Hacked by a rival image board, all its moderators, janitors and premier users who made accounts have been doxxed.
The new owners who bought it from Moot in 2016 legitimately never updated the backend… The server was still running on a nine year old version of FreeBSD and PHP.
made accounts
Huh?
They had a premium membership thing going, and there were some who posted under an alias.
4chan gold was real??
well damn…
Fedi-chan when?
Please, just let it die.
Burn down one crack house, five more open up
Lemmy isn’t a crack house!!!
It’s a crack home! <3
I sure will miss /t/
I’m gonna miss /rg/ and my Doom and Quake bros.
That community even had custom map contests.
Good night sweet prince.
So are they gone for good now? Is that what happene?
