There are about 70x as many posts on r9k than there are on Wizchan. Do people on r9k simply not know about Wizchan? Are they too built into the habit of using 4chan to make the switch?
And its not how old a board is, either. 7chan has existed since 2006 (I'm pretty sure), and it's /b/ board has only 815,000 posts, while 4chan's /s4s/ board, which has only existed since 2013, and has amassed 10,000,000 posts.
How has 4chan, the most poorly moderated, poorly designed imageboard (except maybe endchan) held onto that many users?

I occasionally tell people to commit suicide on the internet, and I rarely mean it. I do want you to kill yourself, though. Heyuri is a retarded site, and I like spamming it with scat porn.

I haven't been here for a very long time, what is the integrity of this community like compared to what has happened to r9k? I know r9k was always pretty bad but whenever I visit it now it's polluted with zoomers, tiktokers, egirls, and porn.

It's because it's been shilled on reddit and reddit is keeping that shitheap alive. Also that 8chan, the second most popular alternative to 4chan was thoroughly jewed by Cripplekike (who blew all the donation money on hookers and blow), Jim, and the courts

Also to add, I read somewhere that reddit users typically login to reddit directly before posting on 4chan. Can't remember exactly where but apparently there was some study on it. Either way,

That'd be strange because reddit is associated with lefty politically correct types echoing the mandated narrative, while 4chan is associated with the alt-right, loud and obnoxious types echoing some assortment of trash opinions about race.

4chan and 4chan culture disgusts me. As a teen I thought it was funny, and references to pepe the frog and to 4chan words and culture were endearing. Now I find them disgusting. I still admire Hitler, Chris-Chan, Terry A. Davis, and other pinnacles of 4chan culture, but I'm completely done with the rest of it.

I'd say politics has taken over the site, not leftism. For the first ten years, 4chan's reputation is what kept it safe. A ton of normies were kept at bay from the infamous 4chan, due to the lolicon, jailbait, and raiding. But after ~10 year mark, its reputation began to do the opposite, as the media branded it 'le right wing discussion site'. Many low intelligence right wingers came from Twitter and Reddit.

You can't say "nigger" on any board besides /b/. You can get banned on /pol/ for insulting people and being racist. Or the mod/janny will just ban you for a made up reason like spamming/flooding or violating US law.

Or was it on July 12 2006 with the Habbofags

>reddit is associaed with
The single largest political center of gravitation that Reddit ever had was r/the_donald, a sub which represented the reddit community at large and as a whole but which was antagonistic towards reddit administrata and the whole apparatus of reddit internal governance. This was neither the first nor last time the site community would show values antagonistic to the maintenance and sponsor-backed profitability of reddit, as a recent blackout nominally undertaken for the sake of third party software beneficial to the blind shows.
The other reddit-born political movements and groups of note are their numerous red pill and transgender activism subs, which are and always have been viciously opposed to each other. Reddit is not particularly noteworthy in terms of support or decrial of homosexuality, which has always been more or less on par with the practical treatment of homosexuality on 4chan (though reddit was initially significantly more homophobic than 4chan, several factors including the mass banning and perpetual liquidation of 4chan's toxic and bizarre "trap" culture of the '08 era and histrionically retarded outspoken queers on blue boards were notable steps in the right direction on that front).
Less notable but more influential in the long run have been r/coontown, r/HBD and a host of other now-banned explicitly racist subs running the gamut from "humor" that consisted exclusively of saying "nigger" to creating infographics that are reposted on 4chan to this day. On the whole, 4chan has been the recipient and mindless repeater of more reddit memes than the other way around given the explosive growth 4chan's /pol/ experienced after reddit decided, slowly, eventually, to remove places like coontown from its servers.

4chan makes me so angry. But I think it's more frustration at myself for having wasted years being terminally online.

I wrote a medium long, not an essay and not some schizotalk post where I offered a perspective not yet talked about in the thread with an open question inviting discussion and all I got was a mocking 3 word reply.

I realized that everyone there is a normie with friends phoneposting so they don't have the desire to write long posts because its a pain in the ass on phones and because they get actual social interaction so they have no hunger for a quality internet discussion.

Then when I get drunk and shitpost for a change people have the nerve to tell me I am ruining the board when it's all clickbait threads with 1 line replies.

The internet is fucking dead. You can't get any virtual replacement for social interaction anymore.

A 4chan mod must have a seething hatred for me, because while I was posting in a heated thread, I copped a ban for shitposts I made a week ago in a long dead thread.

I do suspect they post on the site and ban people if they feel threatened or are losing arguments, or whatever. Still, getting bans from long dead threads shows how thin skinned they are.
