I got into it for a while about ten years ago and at the time a lot of their content was spilling over to other sites and they were equal parts brilliant, stupid, witty, retarded, open and bigoted. They were a source of a lot of internet chatter that got people talking.
Now I go on once in a while to check in on them … and it feels like they’re stuck in the same rut and it’s the same group of weirdos trying to restart things that had already been done years ago. They’re not new anymore and they just sound like a broken recording playing the same thing over and over again. It was funny the first few times … now it’s just sad and stupid.
This list might have been true 10 years ago
I can’t even think of a meme that 4chan has
n’tcome up with in the past decade (new racial slurs don’t count)Back in 2009 they were the bleeding edge for shitposts though
Edit: am illiterate
All the memes that are hot with Gen Z start on tiktok. They’re usually video based so couldn’t be on 4chan to begin with
You’re absolutely right, 4chan had the sauce back in the day.
Now it’s just sad.
