I haven't really browsed in years desu
I'm only back really for the new Gumball. Last time I actively browsed was probably when the first show was around.
I guess after a point it all just gets tiresome. I think to a point 4chan has always had a cycle where the next lot of youths find le edgy wacky crazy 4chan while the older userbase age out, lose track of the memes and can't engage anymore.
4chan's always had that reputation of being the wild west that kept people coming here. Trouble is these days, you can basically get that anywhere on the internet now. And even the draws of anonymity are mitigated because you can gain a bunch of followers and even make money just posting the same shit but on an actual platform. No one looks at this place as an alt-humour place anymore, it's a far cry from when it was widely known as the asshole of the internet
I don't think it's a bad place, after some time I just learnt to mentally filter all the shit out. Trouble for me is I genuinely don't know anywhere else to discuss comics and cartoons. I barely engage with them anymore yet I love them. Shit sucks. Anyone got any suggestions?
