True. Where's true "random"?
It's all just porn here. It's not like I don't like seeing porn, but there's plenty of places I could go to watch porn. Where's "random"?

>>938040277 (OP)
i tried making it random but i got bored of it pretty quick.

my dad used one of those in college. Osborne was based, I used it in grade school to play space invaders and text games. Your pic is an osborne 2 or whatever the revision model was, the older one was even chunkier iirc

It's been an issue for many years. It's gotten to the point where if I filter all the trash generals with fags dumping folders full of 4/10 wildebeests, I end up with maybe four or five visible threads on refresh(and one of those is more shit-tier porn that just didn't have anything that could be filtered).

It's almost like people just don't like talking on the internet anymore in 2025. Everyone is here just for porn/AI/crypto.

>>938040467
Sadly i tried doing some of the shit that i taught was fun like roll games and such but unless its fucking porn and larp related good luck..

>>938040587
Ya sadly true..

>>938040277 (OP)
there is too much porn i do not like it...

go to the r9k one instead it is much better with less porn

>>938040620

Do you know any other chans or cozy boards where people do actual talking and/or discussion other than posting porn and trolling each other?

>>938040705
sadly no.. Kind of wish i did tho..

>>938040747

I finished watching Steins;Gate anime few days ago, in the anime they use "@channel" (which is an obvious reference to "2channel" to discuss news and other interesting stuff.

I got interested and opened 4chan (since 2chan is a Japanese board) and it's just porn all over the place here.

I'm kinda disappointed, not that 4chan is all porn, but that I couldn't find that "vibe" I was looking for after watching anime characters communicate on an imageboard.

The internet has been expanded and optimised since then. There are more websites in general, so people join more specialised communities for genuine conversation.

>>938041076

Fuck, now I'm nostalgic about "the old web" again. It's painful.

>>938041076
It's not all that different here. You have to sit around waiting and watching, to find that one thread where something is being discussed with gusto. And it's true what they say, the best threads you'll ever see on this site come about when someone starts an off-topic but serious thread on a board. They don't get bogged down by the board-specific kvetching that would usually happen if the thread was made in the correct place, so people actually participate in a meaningful way.

>>938040815
ya sadly .. I don't mind the porn but not every single thread or post.. I mean porn's all ways been apart of 4chan but not at this ext level.. It is now.. witch is sad.. as i miss the old days of stupid threads. Roll games and shit where people actually interacted with one another unlike now where its the same 3 guys posting the exact same shit and gooning to each others posts.. Even if you troll them they ignore it.. Witch kind of sucks as i use to be good at trolling and getting people to laugh at my shit.. but sadly it is what it is now :(

>>938041195

Oh master, teach me how to troll please. Maybe at least I'll find this fun.

>>938040277 (OP)
Bots ruined /b/ and zoomers incredible lack of imagination. Go to r9k if you want something like the old /b/ otherwise just sit here like a bitch and cry about it, nothing illegal about it.

>>938041306

Tbh I checked /r9k/ and it isn't bad, there are interesting topics to discuss.

Probably this is the answer.

There are various recreations, mostly powered by the Wayback Machine, but even if you recreate the World Wide Web in 2004 on a technical level, the community & the way they think has changed.

We can never go back, and we can never stay in a good moment. But now is still pretty good in several ways, so try to enjoy it. I remember in 2015 everyone was like "ah gosh the internet sucks now. 4chan sucks now", "b was never good", etc. but now I've seen 2015 encroaching on the territory of the good ol' days, being remembered fondly.

For a while longer, I think mostly there are Humans posting content on the internet; most thoughts transmitted online were written by a person who was trying to communicate something to another human. With AI continuing to gain mainstream usage, I don't think that will be the case much longer. A long ramble like this one might be autogenerated and you'd never know that you were the only human to ever consider what was said. So I think 2025 can be "the old web" too.

I keep seeing this. So I took a snapshot of the catalog (you do use the catalog?). Picrel

I make that 10 porn threads out of the 24 snapshot now. So less than 50% (actually 42%).

>>938041576
(cont)
Actually I missed a "Roll" thread that probably counts (I wouldn't know - I don't open them)

So that's 11 out of the 24, or 45%.

>>938040587
not true, I'm here for the friends :)

>>938041617

Also the one in the middle with a ruler and an ass.

>>938041762
>Also the one in the middle with a ruler and an ass.
I discounted that because the thumbnail talked about wanting to quit /b/. I just checked (pic rel) and it seems to be more whining than wanking

But if it's counted that'd still be less than 50%

But when I switch from catalog to front page, there's only 2 out of the 15 that are not porn (this being one of them)

So your problem is hitting F5 on the front page rather than selecting from the catalog.

You can also try sorting by creation date rather than bump order. But you'd rather just whine

Turns out when every single thread with effortposting gets nothing but TRUMP BASED JEWS NIGGER PAJEET YOU LOST as replies, no matter what the subject, creative people leave, and all that's left is what you see now.

>>938040277 (OP)
Turns out, when you tell people "post whatever you want!!!!!" they just want to post porn

>>938042394

Turns out people are fucking animals.

My Dad had one of those computers.

The screen was tiny as hell. It was a heavy computer, but it was something you could at least move around.

At the time, that was a wonderful thing.

>>938040277 (OP)
Stop noticing things

>>938041617
Also the one where the lead image is litterally a fat tatted up pussy.

>>938041617
Also also, the "humor" threads frequently devolve into sex/porn based humor

>>938040277 (OP)
And that's sad. We need to ban it from this board.

Your fortune: Bad Luck

>>938044474
agree, but the problem for me is none of the other boards allow loli

>>938044523
>but the problem for me is none of the other boards allow loli
How is that a problem? Only people who should voluntarily dive into active wood chippers like loli.
