Do people have to tiptoe on eggshells around here about 4chan? Does visiting that website automatically make you a bad person unless you provide an explanation?
This is how people have viewed 4chan for a while now.
People think anyone who spent any time on 4chan are pedophiles/racists/misogynists.
They’re mainly right but it’s a mixed bag.
Don’t get me wrong 4chan can be a horrible place but most people just assume if you visit 4chan you’re on /b/ or /pol/ which is generally where things can get really dark really fast.
4chan does have some decent boards though just that you always have to be on guard for trolls.
Lol, good point. I’m actually just doing that because some assholes i used to talk to irl tried to “cancel” me by pretending i was an active 4chan user, and i did tell one member of thst friendgroup about this site recently. I am no longer gonna let my pathetic trauma get in the way of acting normal online. This isn’t reddit, after all.
Lemmy actually seems not blindly-anti-4chan, which is nice.
Still, i wouldn’t actually want to use it again. But it definitely has normal people on, because it wouldn’t function otherwise.

AFAIK the /a/nime board translates and posts manga and do a really great job of it.
