I'm more than a little peeved at what's happened. This is more of sharty's beef with the mods than any userbase and it does nothing but make most people hate them despite most anons proclaiming it's a good thing. Yes, we will bitch eternally about 4chan moderation, content and how crap it is. But we go there anyway because it's a one of a kind place, even if alt chans give you more quiet options. Personally, I find Hikari3 adorable and I'll stay here even when 4chan is back. And yes, it's coming back, they've said as much since they'll start taking maintenance seriously. they're more worried about staff retention since people fear getting doxed.
sharty will get it's own payback soon enough, already recieving attacks from pissed anons. 4chan has also stated in a leaked email that they plan to persue legal action, which makes sense. As bad as 4chan is, it's not a place to that encourages raids or attacking other sites. That's still illegal. who? not only encourages it, but brags about it. That will get the admin team there in trouble.
Personally, this is good for me. My most visited boards are /v/ and /pol/, two of the fastest boards on 4chan. As much as I make fun of tiktok kids for having a low attention span, I'm no better in my own way. This will help me take things slow at least. So I'll count this as a forced vacation.
