Do you ever feel like 4chan has stagnated?
All of your lurking is monitored by 4chan to train the bot that curates your homepage and every post on every board. Every image you open, how long you stay on each thread, etc. It trains the algorithm to give you the same threads, which are always a mixed bag of some real threads and mostly bot posts. The end goal is to completely solidify this mental cement they're pouring and turn you into a golem that only responds to patterns of lights, keywords, and advertisements

Feel like? No.
I know it has stagnated. It's been stagnant since around 2009~2011.

I filter more and more content. All I care is to make the site pleasing to be in. I know about the bots and it makes no difference to me since the few humans that come here have little to nothing of value to contribute with.

There's been talks of the site being at an all time low of users and honestly it makes sense, think of the core audience that would use 4chan:
>anime is now mainstream, why would you use this site to discuss it instead of anywhere else?
>oldfags are getting too jaded to keep going
>racists have better sites to be racist in (twitter)
>other sites have taken the role of the internet boogeyman (kiwifarms, the sharty)
>idiot kids have the soijak site to shitpost

just need moderation, keep the homosexuals on their containment board, delete spam threads, and the community can resurface.
