>Why is ricing not popular in /g/ anymore?
Unironically because of the same reason people don't post their personal projects anymore and why people do not share their shit here in general anymore.

There's too many fucking haters on here who don't contribute but only tear down people to shit without any cause. They just rip everything apart, it's not even gatekeeping like it used to be, it literally just shitting all over other people.

>Anecdote:
Pic rel, I posted this when I was starting out with >>>/p/ years ago and shared a story with an old-school photographer, the cool boomer type, and someone just absolutely denied it ever happening.
It has only gotten way worse ever since.

It's not the youngins hating on stuff. I'm a Zoomer and most Zoomers don't even know of 4Chan besides some greentexts they might or might not have seen on YouTube, Insta or TikTok.
The few that know wouldn't amount to the sheer volume of hate this site is directing at it's own users.

Also the shitting order is pic rel.

I'm don't hate on ricers, but if you're fiddling with lua for 2 hours a day that just tells me you actually have nothing more productive to do; And as the average age of the board goes up, the ricing will conversely go down.
I simply don't have the time for it and the time to benefit ratio is abysmal.
Also there's only so much you can do, I've seen all rice, I get it you want to show off your rice, but you can't expect people to really care at this point - They've already seen it a hundred times.

If you live in ur computer 24/7 like a neet you'd like to make the place look nice, but if you use your computer like a tool (it is) it often looks messy + you won't really have the time to do settings, color picking, background etc neccesary to have a good enough rice.

Even if that butt hurt virgin retard uses the Windows 11 or the Windows 10, he STILL won't utilize his computer at all. He has that computer so that he can have bragging rights, but then he realizes that in 2 years, his computer will be obsolete, therefore, it's impossible to build a computer that is future-proof!

At the age of 34, I don't feel like doing that shit anymore. I just want something that looks good, feels right, and has great default shortcuts. This is why I stuck with GNOME.
My biggest rice is installing Numix Square icon and changing the wallpaper (Fedora's default wallpaper is a sin against good taste, literally made by someone with 70 IQ using windows 98 MSPAINT.exe)

Ricing is only possible if you have nothing to do 24/7 365 days of the year, if you have a job then it's an impossible feat.

It's not just haters, it's stagnation too. If someone tears into you in an original way it can be fun to argue back and forth with them, but if they're just going to call you a tranny or a 'jeet or whatever the buzzword of the week is, hoping they're one (you) up on you, what's the point?

This, so much this.
The culture in general in these image boards has shifted to be just pure gaslighting. I think 2016 was the tipping point, some theorized there was some coordinated effort to make these places uninhabitable, or, maybe it was just smartphones and discord. Whatever it was, there's been generations of newfags now that never saw the old gatekeepy elitist club we used to be, where we actually had some sort of etiquette and took internet as serious business in a funny way. All they've known is this cesspool of pointless spam and low effort bait, and think it's the norm.

This place is too fucking filled with absolute fucking troglodytes now too, probably due to the lack of effective gatekeeping. Ever argued with those anons that seem completely unreasonable, seemingly intentionally trying to make you as frustrated with them as possible? They're not actually trolling, they're just genuinely that retarded.
Used to post a lot of cool shit here, I got to know a lot of anons from here quite personally, in good and bad. It's almost awe-inspiring how obsessed the troglodytes get over you if they see you have any success whatsoever.

Simple as, i always had these settings for all my DE (kde 3.x, gnome 2.x and finally xfce).

It's mostly a hobby for emotionally stunted / autistic tweens, usually with above-average intelligence and intolerably desperate personalities. Seeing as this board is now mostly double-digit IQ wintoddler gamebois, plus a small contingent of what they call "boomers", it is not surprising that ricing has become less commonplace.

Projecting what, onto whom? I was ricing until about 18 years ago. Thanks to a great therapist, I learned to regulate my autism, and now have a business, a wife, and a kid. If you want a referral just let me know. Autism isn't really a social death sentence anymore, at least if you're high functioning. There's nothing to be afraid of.

Diminishing returns + path of least resistance.
In the beginning everything is fun and exciting, always trying news things to see what works or not.
But with time you just want do get work done the easiest way possible, and realize the tried and true methods are the best ones for a reason.

The majority of people are just not autistic enough. I want my operating system to enable me to do the work I'm trying to get done, it doesn't have to look pretty. Besides, KDE Plasma 6.4 already looks pretty neat out of the box.

I can't remember the last time it has crashed on me, but as should be apparent from what I just said, I don't fuck with it.

>It's not just haters, it's stagnation too.
Honestly, the site has been stagnating ever since >who gave this place to hiroshimoot. No real new features for nearly a decade (gonna be 10 years on sept. 21st btw) is gonna kill a site. Yes, the old Web2.0 design gives the site its charm, but most people use add-ons to make the site more usable in the year of our lord 2003 + 22.
>what's the point?
I don't know, I come here out of habit.
>You could have more interesting conversations with ELIZA.

>The culture in general in these image boards has shifted to be just pure gaslighting. I think 2016 was the tipping point some theorized there was some coordinated effort to make these places uninhabitable
Yep. At first it was "retribution" for humiliating >her by making the cheeto president. Then they realized that concentrated autism is water on the mills of free spiriting which is why they first tried subverting shit which didn't work but then turned the noise to information ration way up. At leas that's my observation.
>Whatever it was, there's been generations of newfags now that never saw the old gatekeepy elitist club we used to be, where we actually had some sort of etiquette and took internet as serious business in a funny way
Everyone used to be a newfag at some point, even me, but >LURK MOAR used to be the apex predator of chan culture back when I was new. I learned the etiquette and even had my own general thread on /g/ a few years ago. I know I sound like a boomer here, but people here aren't encouraged to learn the ways anymore, this
>All they've known is this cesspool of pointless spam and low effort bait, and think it's the norm.
perfectly encapsulates it. And with certain orgs having access to unhinged LLMs the signal to noise ratio is forever in the gutter.

>Ever argued with those anons that seem completely unreasonable, seemingly intentionally trying to make you as frustrated with them as possible? They're not actually trolling, they're just genuinely that retarded.
Either that or they're AIs tasked to annoy the ever living shit out of you. Just don't become bothered, that's all it takes.
>Used to post a lot of cool shit here, I got to know a lot of anons from here quite personally, in good and bad.
There's a few IRCs that keep the spirit alive. That's (unfortunately ?) going to be the future of "autism" on the internet, secluded spaces of people with awesome capabilities. It's basically what discord did to open forums, just for internet-'tism.
>It's almost awe-inspiring how obsessed the troglodytes get over you if they see you have any success whatsoever.
That's human nature if we're entirely honest. Otherwise musicians would never become famous stars, otherwise we wouldn't have a reality TV star as the president of the US, etc.

Because this photo was taken during a run and gun photoshoot on an 40 years old AE-1 with a 40 years old FD 35-70 f/4 manual focus lens at dusk when I just getting into photography.

the only way to solve this is to have mods who aren't afraid of being too heavy handed, while being aligned with the interests of the users. the problem is that the moderation of this site is heavily against it's userbase, just look at the sharty hack leaks. they are clearly the kind of person who hates 4chan, the worse part is that the higher ups just do their own thing. just look at rapeape and j ireween

you might think that having mods who are more active and strict is a bad thing, and sure it can be. but if the mods aren't afraid of pleasing the userbase would it be that bad to have them, say give (THIS USER HAS BEEN BANNED FOR THIS POST) things to the OPs of those xorg vs wayland threads or the rust vs C or the irwin larpers?

i think you're missing the point: a forum with the stated purpose of arguing can be fun, a forum with the stated purpose of playing rock-paper-scissors with cope-seethe-dilate can be reproduced locally by anyone who can write an IF statement, no participants necessary.

Dead wrong.
The hate is performative and post-ironic for the zoomer. Give me some of that, say 00's /v/ completely sincere hate for things. I like that sort of hate.

Arguing about something, alright. But what's happening on here is not plain arguing anymore, it's literally just a "who can shit all over the other hardest" contest.

Put it on reddit / deviantart / artstation or whatever first then and then link it here.
If some jeet starts claiming they created it, link to your reddit or artstation or whatever.
>I don't want to be doxxed / linked to chan
use burner accounts that cannot be linked to you, but at that point you're after virtual clout and are no better than youtube whores.
