I visit 4chan several times a day, though I use Lemmy more.
Edit: I now only visit it a few times a month.

Why would I want to lower my faith in humanity more?
None. I will never touch anything *chan
2chan, 4chan, 5chan, and the other number I won’t even mention cuz I actually saw something very traumatizing there.
Like once a year or something.
Too much manipulation by racists, nazis, and russia. All they have to do is tell 4chan that doing x/y/z will offend people, and suddenly they are a willing personal army.
Back when stormfront said how easy it was to funnel chanfolk into their ideology, I honestly thought 4chan would break stormfront. I didn’t expect such enthusiasm for an ideology that would outlaw 4chan if it got enough power.
Absolutely never.
Never.
At this point I see pepe as a hate symbol.
I don’t follow 4chan politics, but isn’t Pepe a /pol/ thing or something like that? I mean, 4chan’s got a number of different forums. That seems like saying that Reddit is X because of a particular subreddit, or the Fediverse is X because of a particular community/magazine.
Not much anymore. /diy/ is still good for some of my weirder technical questions, but the rest of the boards are in the gutter. /b/, which used to be good for a Friday-night laugh, is nothing but transphobic-trans worship posts or loli threads.
/b/ was never good.
Eh, in retrospect I agree but as a socially awkward annoyingly atheistic teenager in the late oughts/ early 2010s there was some times that were fun in the moment. Definitely didn’t do anything good for my development though
I haven’t been on 4chan in over 20 years since I saw a gif of a German shepherd being hit in the face with a shovel.
That place is a cesspool.
Literally never in my life
Never
