Thread 107046995

Are there any alt-chans worth visiting in [current year]? Been kinda bored with 4chan lately.

your mother's imessage

>>107046995 (OP)
Many but all are DOA imho. Half will het you banned for saying the nigger word so the fun fades pretty quick.

Futaba is still nice if you can read Japanese
They've gone more insane ever since Abe-san died

>>107047050
Do you think it has to do with most of them having no board culture whatsoever?

>>107047050
Well they sure sound like a bunch of knickers

>>107047118
do japanese bring up trannies, pajeets and joggers at every opportunity like here?

>>107047193
>"Knickers could be here" he thought

>>107047205
They don't have to, the nips are far more homogeneous. 4chan is like public school where any and all are welcomed, human and non-human.

>>107046995 (OP)
Sure, enjoy your 3 posts per month.

It is absolutely tragic what Discord did to altchans, and the centralization of the internet in general.

>>107047205
no, they dont have jidf bots 24/7

>>107046995 (OP)
for some niche interests yes
I can't post them here though

>>107047257
You sure about that?

>>107047255
Oh, it was (((tragic))) alright... and Glowniggers are laughing.

>>107047223
>non-human
why did you have to bring up trannies, pajeets and niggers

>>107047271
Just post 'em already

>>107047047
momchan would be great but she's too busy to deal with me

>>107047205
If they aren’t discussing the various weapons jews are inflicting on the world, what’s the point?

I went to lain when 4chan was kill.
I used to browse 99chan pretty regularly, but I think it's been gone for more than a decade by now.

alt chans are all now
>yuropoor chans with 8 posts a day where yuropoors blabber about stupid shit and ban you for talking english (or only have 1 english baord everyone gets forced onto)
>4chan parody sites with 3 posts per day that are inhabited by people really angry at 4chan and won't shut up about 4chan
>memechans where a handful of unfunny retards who really really like pepe and wojack spend all day posting the same fucking pepe and wojack pictures

We used to have real altchans back in the day, but not any more....

https://eylenburg.github.io/altchans.htm

Conclusion: not really. Although I like Kohlchan

How is 7chan doing these days?

They should bring back thier /zoo/ board. The only good chans have /zoo/ boards.

>>107050900

just go to retarditt
and stay there

>>107047205
they bring up gaijin in general, yes

>>107050905
this one is the only one i visit sometimes

>>107046995 (OP)
Definitely, yes
It takes some digging because there are so many and very few are active enough, but I think it's good to have a good overview of the altspace to choose what you wanna browse
They're actually closed to IRL interactions, they require a bit more investment but the payoff is also greater

>>107050937
Wrong. Try posting "japan should import more Indian men".

>>107047255
it was way, way before trooncord
btw we recently had a thread to try to revive usenet so pockets of resistance still exist

>>107046995 (OP)
8 chan (the "dot se" one) has the only "active" zoo board.
Aside from that, there's onions jack if you are severely braindamaged and the hidden cp script one.
I guess shamik dot ooo has some traffic too.

>>107053339

All chans are flooded with sirs. Even the Japanese ones.

>>107046995 (OP)
There really is no other place that's active like here and also not flooded with tourists, sadly.

>>107054652
It's not just the tourists anymore.
The paid shills (or rather, their bots) are everywhere now.
Your average website will be scrapped and/or spammed by 10 bots before it gets a single organic visit.

hello from old /tech/

>>107046995 (OP)
I ocasionally go on otterchan. Not even because Im a fan of the theme but because I appreciate that there still are websites for niche themes and communities. Though otters do be cute I guess
>>107050905
I was surprised to find that infinity chåņ dot moe still has something like a few thousand posts per hour even post 4chin hack. Not a bad altchan.
If this place shits its pants and dies I could see it becoming the dominant chan.

>>107046995 (OP)
I miss talking to non-closeted men on barachan
femboys are so boring.

GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!

>>107053329
you have a russian flag i know it

>>107055322
Don't be a faggot and post already. Your alt-chans need the activity anyways.

Here's a list from AllChans. Any worth visiting?

>>107053329
0/10 no scales

>>107057807
also
>sfw

>>107057708
Kohl is glowmax, NSA use to put obvious honeytraps there but now its just /pol/ but with /int/ culture
Hispa is dead, 8kun and 8ch still has some life but it's mostly /pol/ tier posts, 7chan is somehow clinging to life, Wizardchan has like 5 posts a day, its like /r9k/ but slower.
Lainchan is nice but slow, it has a cyber board.

Most of these are dead sites or offline.

>>107057853
>Lainchan is nice but slow
I don't visit much but I like the vibe there

>>107053339
They removed their /zoo/ board unfortunately

>>107050900
even 4chan dying didn't bring it back to life, sad
it's like shitposting in a museum

>>107058336
That's nice but your mom still gets fucked by a dog and no I'm not talking about your dad.

>>107057708
>doesn't include the kino that is otterchan
Dot moe is decently active and probably the closest to a successor to the deceased infinity and plus4chan is ok to look at now and then if you're into /co/ shit I guess.
That's as far as I've ventured as far those ones go.

>>107057413
no, no actually they dont. your cancer can stay here :)

>>107057708
CP gets spammed on this exact list every day, interesting

I check in on the place every so often. It's kind of cozy sometimes. I also like their radio station.

>>107059708
Glowies tasked to nuke any civil discussion

I like Leftypol but obviously it's left-wing politics focused. You can say nigger but you'll get wordfiltered to uyghur. The mods aren't AS bad as other altchans I've been on as you can at least complain to them and they'll usually overturn your ban.

>>107059708
>>107059928
This shit scares me. When I was young I thought it was people trolling but now I know its not a coincidence. Hosting your own websites, especially if they allow free communication, is obviously discouraged.

>>107060636
Typically there are provisions to protect the site owner if the site allows user-submitted content. Usually the site owner has to show that they make an effort to delete offending content when it's reported, and provide a way for people to report it.

>>107047905
This is why I use 4chan.
Without 4chan the world would think the holocaust happened.
I mean... you'd just shoot them if you wanted it done lmao.

>>107050799
oh hey, the altchan I run is listed there.

>>107059708
>CP gets spammed on this exact list every day, interesting

altchan admin here, can confirm.

people never really learn that if you want a successful forum you need to start with a theme that becomes its pull factor, much like 4chan started with anime, and only after can i become generalist. it can't just be not-4chan when 4chan still exists
I can only think of holotower as recent successful chan, which basically took the vtumor off 4chan during the hack
when the /prog/ textboard died I was thinking of remaking something similar, but in the following weeks no one really cared about /prog/ dying so I didn't

Usecase for altchans?

What happened to 420chan?

>>107060885
>avtodinosavr
more like a piece of shit
nigger

>>107060933
The owner stopped giving a shit and consequently the moderators stopped giving a shit too, and it got flooded by CP spam and then the servers got seized.
After that leftypol bought the domain.

there were a lot more detailed explanations even here on /g/ but I didn't save them.

>>107060962
>leftypol bought the domain
IIRC the owner set up the redirect after the site went down

>>107060981
The site was down for like a year before the redirect happened.

>>107047050
4chan's quality is even lower now than before the hack. Every single thread is derailed until it becomes about jews, niggers and trannies.

If banning the edgy no-no word keeps such people away and maintains discussion on-topic, then so be it.

>>107058207
It's mostly autistic teens being pseuds. yk the type

>>107060962
huh what a lucky circumstance for leftypol?

I can never get past the "captcha" there. I used to be a frequenter when they were still on The Cafe. :(

>>107060636
>especially if they allow free communication, is obviously discouraged.
That's an understatement to say the least. Kikes are so ultra-paranoid today (and rightly-so desu, they clearly deserve all the hate they get), that you are instantly put on 'enemy of the state' lists if you dare attempt any such thing.

This >pic-related is wrong: >>107053174
There's literally only 3 or 4 blocks now, and (((yidsrael))) covers the entire western set.

i started lurking karachan when 4chan shut down for 2 weeks
idk fucking minilauta or kohl maybe ruski 2ch

>>107057853
>>107058207
I tried lain and every single post I was making got deleted. Didn't break a single rule. For context, never once had a post deleted on 4chan, but for some reason the mods there hate my incredibly average and tame posts. Not even joking I just wanted to talk about technology

>>107062686
>There's literally only 3 or 4 blocks now,
Yeah, last week AWS and this week Azure went down and you had everything broken from NFTs to airports in Hawaii.

>>107047050
>Half will het you banned for saying the nigger word
Good. /pol/ tourists ruined this site.

does anyone knows what chan is pictured here?

>>107046995 (OP)
Altchans are not worth it unless you are the most boring generic nerd or an attention whore.
If you have any specific interest, be it some interesting tech project, some niche game, have a waifu or even specific fetish you will very quickly become recognizable which is not why you post on an anonymous forum.

>>107047118
What are you even talking about, futaba is dead and unmoderated. Everyone moved to that other board that requires discord authentication.

>>107046995 (OP)
One general I frequented has moved to an altchan now for whatever random reason. We'll see it if works out long term.

>>107062767
When 4chan died, I went to 4+4chan.moe and made a vocaloid thread there on /a/. Then I posted some songs, reported some shitposts and got permabanned out of nowhere. There was no link to the offending post, no mention of that ban on ban list, nothing. The shitposts I reported got removed and my thread is still alive and people post there along with all my 5 or so posts.
So much for alt chans lol

>>107063109
lainchan going by the boards, just the style/theme is changed from the default one

Thank me later
imageboards.net

>>107047905
I guess they just call everyone gaijin

btw, I hope nobody here used the sharty months ago. Several people got their PCs trackered and doxxed through discord

>>107063156
>One general I frequented
Are you able to say which?

>>107057413
what's the point? It's not like his chan is going down in a week like every new altchan does

>>107061033
being offended by the word nigger is mind control.

>>107063530
Sure why not. The light novel general on /jp/ moved to 4+4. We've been split since the hack but instead of migrating back when 4chan came back online it's been steadily bleeding users on the 4chan side to the point where the general is dead here.

Nigger, I don't think you understand the niggerlicious tiers of niggerdom that the poojeet shitniggers of Asia have brought to the table. Let 4chan ban the entire subcontinent the quotient of niggerfied niggardry will instantly drop to near zero.

>>107061033
So which are you?

4-ch is pretty good still. but slow.

i dunno why you'd WANT /b/ (or /pol/) nonsense. time was posters would outgrow it.

>>107063158
On dot moe each board's creator or whichever jannoids they assign is in charge of moderation, the site's owner doesnt interfere short of crazy shit breaking global rules nor assign who does what. And go figure some admining /a/ would have a stick up his ass, even on this site's /a/ mods are easy to butthurt.

What software are you running for your imageboard and how do you like it?

>>107064014
I know. But it baffles me there is no ban reason and link to offending post. Just you are permabanned. It's so weird, I have read rules beforehand and I am sure I did literally nothing wrong, not a single shitpost or funpost, literally just a thread about Japanese music on a board that allows any Japanese media.

>>107062720
Karachan is as if stereotypical /r9k/ user had a child with kiwifarms tranny, except 10x worse and full of underages. It's the pure essence of crab mentality, with pathetic losers doing everything in their power to ensure everyone around them will remain a pathetic loser. There isn't even any interesting autists there, any talented or passionate people like you can meet on 4chan. Just bunch of underages who compete on who can make their own life more miserable.
It's a personal hell they have designed for themselves.

>>107063447
No one cares about that zoomer tryhard site.

>>107057708
Zzz has gamenights and stuff. Mostly just /v/ though. Smaller userbase but I check it a few times a day.

>>107061033
I doubt banning words would fix anything.
It's actually easy for altchans to avoid the flood of /pol/tards by just banning them on sight. 4chan only got this bad because they insist on not deleting off-topic content.

>>107046995 (OP)
Hashchans are new and exciting and attempts to solve problems, like glow in the dark jannies, glowflare and botspam

I'm please to see that the altchan I run was mentioned in this thread.

>>107064873
Usually Russian or Indian but most likely the posters are from Israel. Mossad has admitted in the past that they do this kinda thing to "take down" sites they don't like.

8ch was the best imageboard for a long time after the gamergate shit but I stopped browsing imageboards around when the retarded 8kun shit happened. Came back years later and everything that was part of the webring imageboards are near dead now.

>>107064391
Maybe it was genuinely a mistake and you got caught up in some big spam cleanup or something?

>>107064873
>where are the IPs from

They are residential IPs from all around the globe. I've set up a honeypot where I log browser profiles and turns out they are all from Russia (Vladivostok, Yekaterinburg, Samara), Uzbekistan (Tashkent), Brazil (Sao Paulo), and US (New York). The profiles never match the IPs, but the browser profiles like screen resolution and timezones are static, implying that they post from the same computers or VNs and use proxies or VPNs to hide their IP. The IPs were not in any known spam database and none of the ASNs resolved to VPN or VPS services, so I'm leaning on botnets. It's not impossible they used one of those VPN botnets like Tuxler (the ones that turn regular users computers into part of their VPN network for others to use), since those are impossible to detect.

>>107064896
Only thing I've seen indians spam is their own altchan.

>>107064638
one of the ones with "chan" in its name.

>>107063447
> PCs trackered and doxxed
What are a bunch of zoom zooms going to do with my PC information and IP lol

>>107064946
It's not bustling but it gets a few dozen low effort posts a day that aren't just burgs/angry burgs.

It seems a common problem with altchans is that that they're either TOO dead (like zzz) or have that stench of discord transfenderism like 8moe. As one poster here already pointed out you can get jannied for no reason on the latter and I would be distraught if 8moe becomes the replacement for 4chan. I go here to get away precisely from that discord transgenderism bullshit with overzealous mods and too many useless channels and shit. It's why I also find oldfags shitting on discord so strange whilst glazing 8moe.

>>107065693
Alt-chans with discords defeats the entire purpose of having an alt-chan. I always found it strange when the admins create one for "discussions".

>>107065693
with "civil internet freedoms" getting stripped away every month, altchan replacements that allow VPNs may very well be a real timeline
despite 8's great entry policy and rangeban set, just from the short refugee time, it was made apparent that a mod of one of the largest boards has (had) a very clear bias on certain topics

>>107065539
>and US (New York). The profiles never match the IPs, but the browser profiles like screen resolution and timezones are static, implying that they post from the same computers or VNs and use proxies or VPNs to hide their IP.
SS dismantled a bot farm in NYC recently. Despite what they claim they think it was used for this was probably a cellular IP farm they brokered access to for anyone who would pay..

>>107065833
That's not what I was talking about. I was saying that a lot of altchans felt exactly like discords to use and navigate, with the only difference being much lax rules on language usage. You still get tranny mods banning you for memes they don't like or whatever.

>>107065234
Who knows. I don't and will probably never know.

>>107065914
Boards on dot moe are essentially free to make, if a jannoid in one is a cunt nothing stops people from just making a new one and migrating

>>107065976
>bro having a thousand /v/s, /g/s or /tv/s with 1 PPM is good actually!

>>107065991
1 PPM is a respectable amount of activity

>>107066033
Post per month, not post per minute. Should've probably clarified that.

>>107065991
So it's bad because...? Don't like them, don't use them.
Are anons on gee really going to argue that lack of freedom is le good somehow

>>107066094
This board is a husk of its former self. Zoomers don't have any concept of "freedom" since they were born after it ceased to exist. You'll find many unironic "FOSS is cringe tranny shit use proprietary software only!!" shills on this board these days. Or it's all just a psyop by jeets idk.

>>107066094
It's not freedom it's barely controlled chaos. You're stretching thin a small userbase over an unnecessary amount of boards to use.

>>107061033

before llms it was scripters, paid posters and the like, now its all digital asbestos
