Who's chilling here while reddit and twitter become increasingly worse?
| This is indeed a good place: completely anon without creeps and also no NSFW shit all over the place like 4chan. Just good discussions.
Twitter has been kept by normies times ago and now it's the time of reddit.
| Yes, but the « internet is worse » is mainly nostalgia
I miss the forums era (early 2000)
| >>961949 nah its not nostalgia, early 2000s all the way to like 2015-ish was the best times. Finding really weird random websites and forums, youtube content golden age and lack of ads/sponsors/shorts, being able to make friends in games so easily due to lack of social censorship.. nowadays games actively discourage socializing and shit like discord make it even more inprobable that you are gonna make a friend just by booting a random game on.
| Same with the forums, really not possible to find any quality content or make friends anymore. Socializing is gone, everything is just censored, suppressed and capitalism has taken over.
| I want twatters and redeaditors to go
| it's insane how bad twitter has gotten. especially with the new rate limiting smh
| Saw someone say that rate limit was because elongated muskrat didn't pay his e-rent to Google for hosting
| The "rate limit" is fucked up on elon's part. Let's make it so twitter's main userbase can't open twitter anymore. Might as well just burn it to the ground
| >>962025
Basically. That and the new code is so bad the site is fucking itself. Everything the malding fuck is doing is just stopgap solutions to problems he created because he's trying to profit off a service no one is willing to pay for.
| I used to think that the internet has always been awful and I was just blinded by nostalgia but then I happened to find some posts from 2005 on an website I used to frequent and it's not true everything really was better back then I'm sorry we let the internet get so out of control we had no idea things could ever get this bad
| i didnt use my twitter account for nearly 10 years, i just created that acc while ago, watch some memes and forget about it until yesterday, i choose to start watching memes there again, and literally the site dies a day later
| this is so sad r/unixporn was the only good subreddit i used at least they have a discord
| I hope something reddit like gets popular when reddit kills itself I can't handle discord discussion with more than like 4 people but forum posts with on topic discussions work really well for me
| Twitter is choked with bots.

Reddit probably is too.
| I'll admit I thought about this message board again because of those fiasco. Simple, anonymous, and filled with fellow g/u/rls
| >>961939 Bestie the internet is not getting worse, you are just growing up sadly.
It's like with old people always believing young people will be the downfall of their society. Boomers think so, Aristotle thought so, Bronze Age tablet carvers thought so. But in the end the world keeps spinning and nothing really changes.
All we can do is cope and keep going and that is fine.
| >>962221 Which is why we shouldn't have old fucks being the ruling class, because they think the younger generations are fucked so they enhance how much younger generations get fucked :)
| You are retarded fucking retard
| This board is comfy, don't invite twitter ppl here, they'll ruin the comfy.
Don't invite redditors either they'll ruin it even faster.
| >>961943 you forgot to mention we've got a discord server chained upon us and very intense schizo porsters.
Also /u/ is dead.
| the internet itself isnt getting worse, but the companies on it are doing what late stage capitalism does. more squeezing money out of APIs, more ads, more tactics to keep people on your platform, comodification, consolidateion, the works
| >>962395 yea that's why I've said "chained" as bad way to describe attached and "upon" because there can exist as many as long as discord itself exists, so you can't just say like "ban discord" to end it.
| go back times three png
| >>962221 >>962259
Sorry to break it to you but young people have always been and always will be trash, youth is a drug that makes you stupid
| now that we had boomers and zoomers what will the new age be? poomers noomers or xoomers
| BOOMER!! LE ZOOMER!!!! I AM BOOMER!!!! NO ZOOM ZOOM ZOOMIES ZOOMER GOING ZOOMIES AHGHGH I FUCKING HATE THE INTERNET SO GODDAMN MUCH FUCKJK YOU SHITPOST I HONEST TO GOD HOPE YOUR MOTHER CHOKES ON HER OWN FECES IN HELL YOU COCKSUCKER VUT OHHH I KNOWM MY POST IS CRINGE ISNT IT?? CRINGE CRINGE CRINGR CRINGEY BASED CRINGE BASED REDDIT REDDIT CRINGE ZOOM CRINGE ONIONS REDDIT BASED BASED!!!!!!
| pre-api issues reddit was fine honestly when you consider it's just thousands of forums for niche topics you can use one account to view. like, r/all sucks ass but the wealth of knowledge from shit like r/gamedev or tiny communities for some unheard of game from the early 2000s that was a financial failure were nice. twitter on the other hand fucking sucked lmao your feed is constantly awful bs you don't even want with no moderation. reddit at least was easy to filter bullshit out
| i say this because it's always fucking hilarious seeing people gatekeep places like this because "ewww redditors!" as if r/amitheasshole is the only subreddit in existence, like good job gurl you're the protagonist of this social media platform keeping the cringe out, how kind of you, anyways when are you getting a job?
| Fuck, what's the spoiler command again?
| i love sex
| >>962718 as good g/u/rl is my moral responsibility to gatekeep danger/u/ from degenerates what need centralized network, administrators, rules, morality based on things from centuries old laws etc. As far this place is affected by Japanese culture, protected from mentally sick g/u/rls what believe to be boys or "moderators" what are thinking that slurs etc. Should have be deleted, i think i succeed and made this place better place~ let's be cute~ <3
| Also maids are doing good work <3 just in /new/ i'm suspicious that there is one maid ex-redditor or wikipedist
| Also internet can't get bad as long danger/u/ exists.. also lowkey, there exists few other good places as Steam, lowres communities, Discord (broken but works), communities affected by Touhou, Project Zero, Saya no uta, Yami kawaii, J-Rock, Pastel goth, any japanese gaming console etc.
| >>962920 depends, do you also promote things beside gatekeeping? If it were the case I'd like to look it and give you some words depending on what you might think as you may be potentially contrasting to my view, leading to disaccords.
| I'll lead you to my discord.
| >>962935 I mainly promote Japanese propaganda or bad life advices. I was once banned for posting in /new/ about exploding Wiis.. Which is honestly best reason why to get banned. But i don't think most of time, just do random things. But you can give me questions if you want to, but i'm attention whore tbh. But people what just feel bored and try bring morality from others communities aren't welcome here i believe.
| >>962921
We haven't added a new maid in like a year g/u/rl. Outside of /cyb/, there really aren't board-specific maids either. Just because maids enforce the (long-established) rules, doesn't mean they're from Reddit/Wikipedia (wikipedia???).
>as good g/u/rl is my moral responsibility to gatekeep danger/u/ from degenerates
No it isn't. You're just contributing to killing this board by driving g/u/rls away. Educate newg/u/rls on board culture, yes. But don't gatekeep.
| >"moderators" what are thinking that slurs etc. Should have be deleted
Are you that poster we had to ban like a year ago due to your excessive use of slurs? It got so bad, the g/u/rls made like four threads asking us to ban you. Not Redditors. Just regular community members.
I genuinely believe you're gaslighting yourself into believing that every post you don't like is made by some sinister force. They aren't. They're just made by normal g/u/rls.
| ...hopefully, I don't get in between a reply chain.... I'll leave my reply here
>>962945 You seems cool then. Having some japanese culture knowledge and a tendency to make shitposts is just warm to me. You sure feel like a hard nutcase in many ways but it's alright as long as nothing bad escalates over it.
If you're sure and comfortable about the asking questions part...
Can you name one or even more examples of bad morality from the outside of here you don't like?
| >I was once banned for posting in /new/ about exploding Wiis.. Which is honestly best reason why to get banned.
Your source was the parody website https://hard-drive.net/ ??? Also, I checked the logs - you were never banned for that. Your thread was just locked, that's it.
| >>962950 no, i was banned only once for shitpost about wii in /new/.. i feel ok to be fully transparent, but my memory is trash, so i'm transparent as full vhs after being rewrited multiple times. It's not happens here because most people leave before stay here or being noticed. But i don't like people what are serious and taking things literally, need for authority, bringing political topics and being conflicting about them.. but paradoxically i made QAnon question thread recently
| It's kind of stereotypic archetype or how call it.. and it's not meaned for everyone. Partically it's also meme, but platforms as FB, Twitter, TikTok (not mine, but i saw friends how looks like) and a lot of these are filtered, and in some cases also moderated (reddit, wiki), first think maybe is not bad, but if you will try finding communities Google will prioriy show things as reddit, with public profile etc. I prefer older things, with private profiles or specialised web etc.
| Wikipedia isn't bad, but (at least in smaller countries) don't bring opportunity for short articles, and using own tag system. So you can bring (short) article with sources, about technology, videogame, global company, but it will get deleted for not follow format or being really short and no one doubt to fix it.. sometimes i check it, and is sad how just some articles after years still missing. And what is funny, you can see there same moderator(s) (like 3). Maybe English one is
| Better, but in this form it's little sick. But it can be just my subjective experience of course. Wikipedis itself is ok, but i don't like how structure works. Also there is a lot various bots which are doing something which can do server side globally. Regional sites are looking differently, missing articles etc.
>>962953 yes, it's made me laugh while reading it.. i was banned, but unbanned after, so idk if it's still visible in logs, after it being locked i made another thread..
| One of public ips still having ban if it wasn't changed.. i can try find it
