4chan in general is catered to North American and European audiences so why are posters from other countries here?
What made you feel like you could "connect" with these people, /int/?

I'm white

>>212275335
wrong board to ask this question apparently

>I'm white
no you're not, latin american culture isn't white.

I first got a taste for anglo internet around the announcement of Fallout 4. I was looking for info and stumbled upon a reddit thread with all the latest rumors, I kept scrolling and saw they were doing a giveaway, I decided to sign up and participate and I won a copy of Fallout 3, and that was the first time I ever owned a legally acquired game.
These things don't happen in thirdie internet.

>>212275534
that's actually pretty sweet, but still - that was what 10 years ago?
lots of thing have changed the past 10 years, what made you stay over on anglo internet?

>>212275272 (OP)
thirdie internet is boring as it has an extreme lack of nuance because we murder our autists with banal bullshit, someone who could churn out some intresting tidbits about any topic is instead forced to compete with a million other retards just to be able to survive. And since we already have access to a good portion of intresting stuff owing to literacy and internet access why bother with domestic things?

>>212275272 (OP)
I dont, i literally post here to make their posting experience less enjoyable

/int/ is for blog posting, country generals and making fun of americans. everyone can take part in those things.

>>212276820
sounds grim tbf

>>212276349
not very nice, anon

>>212276070
i see, i see - a sort of peering through into what everyone else has to offer huh?

>>212277006
more like the offerings locally are so little I have to jump ship

>>212275821
The quality of content on this side of the internet is simply superior, and once you realize much of the content in your own language is just rehashed English content then it's over.
Also, the combination of a lingua franca (English in this case, although any other would do) and the internet is such a revolutionary thing, if this had happened in the '60s the Soviet Union would've won the Cold War.
Why would I go back to my digital backwater village if I can be where everything happens, at the crossroads of global civilization.
How many Malaysians do you think there are on the Spanish speaking internet?
Also, it's not that I connect better with firsties. I can't connect with people at all, no matter where and I never will.

>>212275272 (OP)
instead of daydreaming about being me on their boards, they come here to dream about being me.

>>212277334
the people who ran away from the historic cities and let them rot?

>>212277129
>so little
in terms of quality, huh?
i get what you mean - locally, folks focus on celebrities, "viral" stuff, that sorta thing

>>212277281
>I can't connect with people at all, no matter where and I never will.
you must have a hobby at least, no?

>>212277418
>ran away from
not wanting to live around scum is normal, especially when the scum currently has government protection, but that's going away.

>>212275272 (OP)
I started from the Russian-speaking segment of the internet and slowly moved to the English-speaking parts of it, I was always an outsider in the web, since the very beginning
I tried connecting with other armenoids through facebook a couple of times but they're all turbonormies, posting either about politics or their boring routine lives
I literally can't stand other armenoids talking about trivial pragmatic bullshit I have zero interest in
Guess I am just too used to reading and observing things about diametrically different cultures that I'll never ever be part of

>>212277458
It's also because i'm an utter retard and completely anglo'd my vocab, there's quite a lot of hidden kino my parents usually read in our native languages but i just can't be fucked to bring myself to their proficiency.

For the common every day stuff? Yeah it's exactly as you described

>>212275272 (OP)
i seriously don't know what i'm doing here since i don't like most of the userbase

>>212277653
>Armenia
i havent seen you guys post in a while
>Guess I am just too used to reading and observing things about diametrically different cultures that I'll never ever be part of
what "culture" are you hooked on right now?

>>212277722
i see, i see
>anglo'd my vocab
kek same, i always ask my friends what the word for something is in my native lang

I've been on this site since the days of MARBLECAKE, also the game

Used to shitpost Code Geass memes on /a/ back in my old country

>>212277458
>you must have a hobby at least, no?
Yes, frogposting
Also this >>212277853

>>212275272 (OP)
How are malay women nowadays?

>>212275272 (OP)
I like interacting with non americans

>>212277853
>>212278246
you guys need something else in life
frogposting is not a hobby, anon

>>212278265
same as every other muslim women; halal in the streets, haram in the sheets

>>212278344
Why did Uncle Ben's stop producing this Malaysian sauce?

>>212278651
i didnt even know those existed in the first place
plum sauce, is it? your standard asian grocery probably sells them

>>212278002
>i havent seen you guys post in a while
there used to be another autist here but he hasn't been active since forever
maybe he died in the last war idk
>what "culture" are you hooked on right now?
just random shit really, sometimes I go check a general to see what people their talk about but never post anything

>>212278698
Yeah its spicy plum sauce but I haven't seen them on the shelves in ages
This was my fav Uncle Ben's flavour :(

>>212275272 (OP)
because I am a self hating Turk

>>212278794
ooh, can you give me a qrd on the generals then? what kinda folks post what and all that

>>212278817
i'm a big advocate for "if you can't buy it, make it yourself"

>>212278871
we seem to get a lot of that tbf

>>212278967
>we seem to get a lot of that tbf
I just hate everything about this country and want to have nothing to do with it, even western normieslop is better than the shit elitist Turks consume

>>212278967
>what kinda folks post what and all that
from what I've seen, Polish general was the most pleasant and least toxic one./asean/ is somewhere close too, you guys are surprisingly chill with each other despite being quite diverse
/brit/ and /fr/ are a meh - not bad, just a little boring
finnshits scare me and are sick in the head, I am kinda glad I don't understand what they talk about
and /rus/ is....well, it's /rus/
other than that, every single general is filled with tranime and morally dubious content

>>212279056
any plans on moving out of the country, anon?

>>212279534
>tranime and morally dubious content
classic 4chan

>>212280029
>any plans on moving out of the country, anon?
yeah, I want to go to a place with no Turks, I'm definitely not going to the Netherlands or Germany

>>212275335
Pardo acha que é branco.

>>212280152
Don't project yourself onto others

Not good for your mental health

>>212280136
i was about to say my country but apparently theres a small community of about 500~ Turks here

>>212275272 (OP)
Everyone here is spiritually american

>>212280792
RRRRRAAAAAAAHHHHH WHAT THE FUCK IS A KILOMETER

>>212275272 (OP)
4chan is 90% SEA and Indians on proxies

>>212281223
5/8 of a mile

>>212275272 (OP)
I come here to talk to asians, fuck white people

t. white person

>>212277722
.. don't say fucking anglo
They don't exist anymore.
It's like me picking out some random Indian family then calling all Indians that

You sound retarded.

>>212283882
2.
Americans actual Americans not recent immigrants
Like Indian-americans, arabs, we love malays and indos, Thai and Filipinos
We are very positive in general
We really don't believe in race.
We are very curious

There you go

>>212277281
As an amerifat expat trying to get into Argentinian internet content to improve my Spanish, I'm learning the truth of this every day. The Argentinian part of the internet has a great sense of humor (sarcastic, self-deprecating, ironic, absurd), but it doesn't have the breadth of content the American/English internet has. I don't know if I'll ever be able to fully make the transition.

>>212275272 (OP)
it was the year 2012, i was a member of a site called taringa which was basically like the latin reddit but with piracy, racism and kiwi farms vibes, it was quite fun
and sometimes you could find very interesting and informative posts
although we spent most of the time throwing shit at each other(especially to peruvians and bolivans kek), sometimes we organized ourselves to shit on other sites, once they organized a raid on 4chan and that's how i discovered it
at first i just wanted to practice my english, but then it became an addiction, also back then 4chan wasn't as bad as it is now and plus taringa became pretty shit due to the staff bad decision, like trying to becoming a weird combination of twitter, reddit and facebook
