not true, /g/ creates chud shitstorms

I invented the spatchaspoon
It is a spatula and a spoon attached by a tong mechanism.
Your perfect companion for serving up mess Italian dishes.

I can smell your disgusting yogurt silicone from here.

>>105863432 (OP)
I think you meant to say "limbo".
Purgatory is the state of being in which you are cleansed before joining God.
Limbo is nothingness. Worse than being dead, it is non-existance.

well remember clover? and sneedacity? and that godot fork.
the xlibre shill is so relentless he might actually be the dev itself, so there's that I guess.

There's the game & engine development generals

>>105863770
spoontula sounds better

>>105863770
That was a schoolwide project in fifth grade. That does not count.

>>105863432 (OP)
I made this but all the nintendies on /vr/ hate me every time I post it because I cut up a broken DS to make it instead of just fixing the broken hinge.

I regret nothing.

Wrong
Purgatory implies we will atone one day, and finally enter into heaven.
There is no such thing for us here.
The correct term you're looking for is Limbo.

How to leave?

>>105863432 (OP)
I'd say there's still more being made on average here than many other shitpost sites.
But it's still a far cry from 10 or more years ago.

NTA, but the best thing to do is
>abandon culture wars tribal mentality (stop seeing things as group X vs group Y, think of them as individual cases)
>embrace sincerity/honesty over memes and catchphrases, along with stoping with buzzwords like "cope, seethe, etc"
>build your individuality and do what you want instead of going with the public opinion

>>105867337
just leave, some guy in one of these chats watched his whole friend group turn into fat 40 year old trannies erping with each other in tf2 over the course of 12 years and he is still there, watching everything get worse until his neetbux dry out

All the people who created things here got banned for maidposting.

It's a good term for the current tribalism that affects this board
All the bullshits: left x right, windows x mac x linux, iphone x android, c vs c++ vs rust, xlibre vs wayland, etc
It's what makes the current internet rotten and hostile

>>105867601
You're letting the rose colored glasses tint your view too hard.
There was always us vs them discourse

>>105863432 (OP)
We do, but there's no point in posting anything of value to this cesspool. Not too long ago I posted in /gegd/ about a software octree splatter I was working on, a somewhat novel rendering technique that imitates the infamous euclideon "unlimited detail" engine from back in the day. Objectively cool stuff, there's only ever been 3 examples on the whole internet of it before me.
But the responses I got were pretty much "you'll never make a game" or "lol fps drops", "use godot". It's just shitposting and gaslighting for the hell of it. And that's in /gegd/ of all the places, the one general where you'd think people actually programmed and made stuff.
There's no gatekeeping here anymore, 2016 killed these image boards. The whole culture is ruined. Ricing is dead, nobody posts personal projects here, all there is pointless spam and unfunny bait that nobody even bothers to call out anymore. Generations of newfags think this shit is the norm and there's no going back.

>>105863432 (OP)
i want a music production board ;-;

heh

>>105863432 (OP)
blame the mods. they'd rather fight imaginary "le ebil pedo cumg spammers" than improving the site.
want to post from device connected to the same WiFi? too bad your IP is now blocked for a week. can't post images or make threads without e-mail verification on some boards. also 300-900s cooldowns for new IPs.
they only hurt legal posters and make them leave 4chan forever

>>105867833
>imaginary "le ebil pedo cumg spammers"
if you're not in the loop and don't care about shit that, in the grand scheme of things, does not matter; they're still around. just on the proxy site.

i do agree that all their "fixes" to combat it are absolute garbage.

why is /diy/ deceased

>>105867546
He posted actual working code before jannies started aggressively banning the images he made with kurumi maidcard.

>>105867844
The worst part about this is that jannies conflated cumg and kurumi maidcard and began aggressively banning projects that used maidcard. Even the desuarchive jannies banned maidcard.

>>105868828
people are leaving the site and not returning. the stats reflect this too.

>>105868974
when 4chinz died /diy/ was the only board there was no clear alternative for

There was always worms, they haven't eaten the whole fruit before, now it's rotten

Because while before posting on 4chan was a signifier of "quirkiness" nowadays being tied to this site is a borderline death sentence

>>105863432 (OP)
/g/ nowadays is just /pol/ with computers.

>>105863432 (OP)
I make stuff.

>>105868974
I wish I could be one of those lucky escapees

Maidnigger is one of the worst shitposters on this website.

where is everyone even going? theres no other website that the archetypal anon fits into

>>105873013
twitter or reddit. anywhere else is just a balkanised micro community... theres hundreds of them yet they will never unite to form something larger... modern interent sucks

>>105873633
Modern internet sucks because of centralization and 4chan sucks because of mass migration from Twitter and reddit.

>Sneedacity
Dead
>Random "anti-woke" Godot fork
Literally who?
Chud nocoders need to go back to /pol/, sharty or twitter
They just shout tranny or some derivative of anything they personally don't like, regardless of whether it's actually functional software or not, because they can't produce /good/ software themselves.

>Muh culture war isn't real you're obsessed

Anon, this is the culture war,,,,,

>>105868974
it's worst than that in reality because bots are boosting the statistics. But the signs don't lie: ten years ago, we had multiple /dpt/ threads per day, those were easily reaching 500+ replies. today a /dpt/ thread lasts one week.

>>105873013
discord (ZwXQFEVMhq — hhk46CE), mastodon/pletora obscure communities, steam forums (they were really wild during the presidential election)

>>105873914
NTA, but I was part of sneedacity
No one cared much after the kiwifarms spam was dealt with, and audacity telemetry was removed

>>105873914
thanks for screeching about pol so that everyone knows you're an election invader

it looks so wrong without the X and Y buttons
is that the original DS though? if so based clicky buttons

It's a small board that's now getting hit with the same low effort troll threads and other garbage. There's been a general there for months that's not even a fucking /diy/ thread, it's some guy printing soijaks (and selling them with links to his store in the threads) and putting them on top of political posters. svseeker and doug lambright threads have been killed off (they're retards posted to laugh at, but their projects are actually diy (disasters)) but some /pol/troon advertising and selling soijak stickers is considered ok somehow.
Half the threads are also not DIY projects, but tradies puffing up their gynostemia chests thinking they're god's gift to man for buying X tool or working in Y trade. Unironic HOA defenders too.

>>105874145

Which one? The "dump dogshit images you prooompted" general? The 500 daily "AI IS GOOD AND GETTING GOODER INVEST NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW" VC funding ads?

/tech/ on 8ch@n was good. /g/ has always been iToddler's first iBinkie threads. I am the only one shilling Qubes here. Me. All Qubes posting with picrel logo is fucking me. I used to run a fucking Gentoo GNU/Windows setup back in like 2010. Yes, legitimate native POSIX code, fucking Gentoo userland, directly on top of NT Kernel thanks to Microsoft's POSIX subsystem called SUA (Interix). No faggot here comes close to that level of autism! /tech/ might sometimes, but /g/ is just a /g/aymermachine board not a true nerd bar. A true nerd bar would evicerate typical iToddlers so hard... Pathetic /g/aymen!

>>105863432 (OP)

got anything good i just might have access to the tools

>>105863432 (OP)
/diy/ is not that bad even if it's slow. At least they create things.

>>105870218
That would probably work, but you'd immediately have two problems. First, you have to get maids to show up and post. Second, your site will continuously be under attack. Maidposting happened organically here. It might not be possible to recreate it somewhere else.

>>105872935
Maid threads were the best on the board and it wasn't even close.

>>105878769
You will only know if you try
I remember some anon that had a booru of maidposting, could work

>>105878777
Maidbooru+maidchan would probably work. Especially if the maidchan integrates kurumi in some way to make it easier for maids to share computer experiments without using github.

>>105867270

Such as. You lack of specifics is telling

>>105879091
It is a common fantasy of soiposters who identify with the chudjak meme, that somehow all those around them are corrupted by political ideologies they don't like, leading to their downfall while the chud persists. It's a sort of psychological shielding to pretend you have achieved something merely by remaining yourself, despite not having done anything or created anything or contributed anything. It's an inversion 20 years ago whenever people treated coming out as gay as an achievement. You're gay? Well aren't you the bravest, most special person ever? Please tell us about how oppressed you are on the basis of identity while we rain free cash and social clout on you on the basis of identity. Then that ideology became dominant so the inverse sort of became popular, because there will always be people attracted to the current thing, and people who dislike the current thing reflexively, regardless of what the current thing is. The final synthesis is that society stops caring about the issue and finds something unrelated to become the current thing, and then the process starts again.

8gag was never good, just posers with no in depth discussion of technology just like here but more smug about it

/diy/ has always been a slow board and that's a good thing. Watching it slowly morph into its current general-ridden state was sad however.

>>105868862
There was nothing wrong with cumg either. It was filled with original projects and high effort posting, the only reason it was banned is that neopuritan election tourists have taken over the entire site.

>>105880041
/diy/ generals seems to be the place where people post their own projects and inventions. What's the alternative?

>>105880121
The alternative is simply making threads for their own projects and inventions when there is something worth posting, which is how /diy/ and more broadly this site used to work before they took over nearly every board. Generals are glorified chatrooms most of the time. They serve no purpose but to fuel drama and prop up attention whores. Sadly that also means they're very easily propagated since you don't need any sort of fruitful content to keep them going, while giving namefags every incentive to do so.

>>105880203
I've got to say for clarity's sake that /diy/'s situation is still not as bad as some other boards, though. /g/ being a prime example.

>>105880203
I don't really feel like making a separate thread for a quick simple project with couple of photos or to ask a question. But place like /ohm/ works very well for something like that.
It's the same as with /dpt/. I rather post short updates to my project on /dpt/ than to create a whole ass thread that no one cares about and there is nothing to discuss beyond "oh cool".

>>105880203
The people who seethe about namefags tend to do nothing but seethe about namefags and can simply be ignored as impotent retards.

>>105880220
Just make a thread for your project. What are you going to push out of the catalog? An extremely low-effort frogpost? The 500th brandwars thread of the day? Unmoderated /pol/ spam? An actual project deserves the thread space more than any of those things. Just post it.

I fixed some vidya controllers once and 4chan told me it was a bad thing so i never moved into actual fabrication

>>105867776

I made this interface that emulates the Family Basic Keyboard, subor keyboard and mouse, and another standard of keyboard/mouse connectivity for the Famicom/NES.
And I have my own Pico driven cartridges for running custom code on the Famicom.
