It's back, but this time on /ot/ instead of /hikki/. I don't really know why it was on /hikki/ in the first place. Please welcome our new, site-wide Chats & Communities Thread.

Do you have a neat web community or chat group you'd like to invite people to? Maybe want to drop your messaging handle and strike up some conversations? Do it here. Ads are not allowed elsewhere on the site.

One post per service please! Duplicate ads may be deleted. This especially includes discord links. To make a permanent discord link, click on instant invite, go to advanced settings, and change the expire time to never.

Internet died after 2021 Anonymous 02/04/25 (Tue) 12:05:29 No.27830 [Reply]

hate to be a complainer lol but internet is not fun anymore. so many cool chans dying like 420chan and dreamchan and I dont think they will ever comeback. Discord used to be cool but now is just people's ego fighting to see who is better and attract the opposite sex the most, almost all of them is just a com copy.
Am I just paranoid or in the wrong places and someone does feel like that too?

You picked the wrong urn to cry into. Uboa's Discord lives its own life and the majority of the board users do not even interact with it. With a few notable exceptions.

I agree with you except on the uboacord part, that place is cursed and something else entirely different in both userbase and feel. I think a lot of the actual userbase here just moved onto adjacent boards/sites since yume nikki you can only discuss so much what hasn't already been said. That and fan games have been kind of grinding to a halt. YNO and the adjacent projects have keep a match lit, even in the jp side of things (I see JP streamers and vtubers play 2kki online constantly). I do unforunately agree that discord and chat apps kind of ruined the internet alongside other consolidations like twitter, instagram, tiktok, etc. but I think we're on the brink of a web revival soon since these sites like twitter keep fumbling and fucking up (especially in regards to pushing AI trash nobody wants) and people are starting to realize the answer isn't more social media alternatives like bluesky or rednote but small forums and communities. I see a lot of small forums and imageboards springing up lately and gaining success and it brings me a small glimmer of optimism and hope. and god i hope the rw irony/com/sharty/edgesphere shit dies out because that shit has worn out its welcome eons ago and to be honest I've never welcomed it at all just got used to it. death to irony

Who exactly? whenever a social media site fucks up people threaten with moving to a clone of it like the two you mentioned. And even then the majority stay on the original site, all of the artist i follow on Twitter have a Bsky but they either rarely post on it or posted like 3 drawings back in 2023 and went back to Twitter.

That ominous and foreboding atmosphere in the show is taken further in the visual novel. I think what can describe it best in both the VN and show is the inverse of that corporate computer office computer aesthetic that was part of the optimism camp of the 1990s. Bad descriptor so I hope you know what I mean but it encapsulates that lateral biblical apocalypse and whirlpool to the end of time and space. What I also liked about it is that it's anti-tech message or warning of the trajectory technology is going like any good cyberpunk explores but it seems the fanbase ignored this or missed the point as I never see it brought up except in explaining the plot, not to dismiss the enjoyment of the computer technology and Wired but that wasn't the real point of it all.

Searching for imageboards is hard, because there is no convinient list with imageboard. I mean, why would you want to visit something you don't like? It would bad for everyone, imageboard users, because they would be pissed off by your behavior, and you, because you don't really like the place.

This is why I've made an imageboard list, which allows you to describe common acitivity and things you would like to have on your board, and decribe activity and things you don't want to see on your imageboard.

Also, I've updated my imageboard list.

Now you can see all imageboards we have in the database.

Consider adding your imageboard there. It is free.

>>What other imageboards do you use?
I lurk on Futaba Channel's nijura boards, a couple textboards, and sometimes 4chan [s4s], although I generally avoid 4chan. I guess I'll try out Wapchan and Kissu and see how things go. I avoid imageboards now. Too much racism, rage, drama and repetitive posting. Japanese ones can be better even if they are often dead. Futaba can be cancer sometimes but the average poster is less unhinged. I'm guessing Americans are just more brain damaged and retarded than Japanese.

>What is your favorite imageboard?
Not sure I wanna advertise it here.

>And what imageboards did you used to use?
4chan and a few niche ones. I tried Heyuri for a while and it was good at first because of rule 8 but it just sucks overall and is fake as fuck. Lainchan suffers from more and more stormfags and jakposters so I abandoned that place.
