I posted an amused and positive comment on the orange site about this and in 2 minutes got a threat about me getting hanged in the near future. Tech bros be panicing.

I mean, the same will happen here if you post the wrong opinion. It's not that different from Reddit. (See how I used to word and nothing happened, btw?)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago

I would like to be hung. 😏

So, a bunch of trolls got hacked? I’m not sure how I’m expected to feel about this, but frankly, I’m not feeling anything at all.

As someone who has never actually used 4chan, I have popcorn and am just sitting back and enjoying the shit show

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 days ago

That’s the best way to consume 4chan content.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 days ago (1 children)

well thing is, they might be searching for a new home

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 days ago

Oh many of them are here already.

[–] epicstove 1 points 5 days ago

It's like a circus, grab popcorn and watch.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Which one of you is going to hack reddit then?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

ok ok I'll do it

I never liked 4Chan even when /b was the big thing and not the /pol.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Oh god /pol/ is the hot spot now? I can only imagine the cess pit.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

/b/ is just logspammers and porn now.

And the 15 min wait to post anything has noticeably slowed down any sort of discussion. Posts on /b/ can last for up to a week now because of it

That actually sounds like it might be an improvement..

The 4chan Captcha never worked for me, so I stopped trying years ago. I used to go there to troll trolls when I was in a mood.
