I'm not really sure if this counts as a happening or not, but on 10th of May, at 4:00:00 GMT, 4/vt/ reached another order of magnitude in terms of post numbers. That board was created on January 29, 2021, based on (now archived) post No. 1.
This would have happened sooner if not for the hack. Not only because there was obviously no activity on that board during downtime, but also because some events that would cause many more posts to appear than normal happened during that time and because from what I gather /vt/'s community has splintered during the hack, some amount of posters not willing to return from bunkers.

honestly i don't know how they manage that. it's insane how l+js is still alive with every post having at least 10 markov chain replies. fagmin is really committed to his job job fed or not, i only have respect for the mod team.

i'm using umatrix with only html+css+cookies and their cookie system (when they ask you to accept their TOA) does not work. that's what i mean when i said they need some web worker crap

Pretty damn impressive, even if the average post is 4 words long. Truly a massive cultural phenomenon. I really don't like vtubers much at all, but it's nice that a hobby board become so massive in such a short amount of time. This happens like twice a decade so it's a big deal.

On one hand you'd think this is the case, but /vt/ is more 90% drama and very little to do with the actual hobby, if it can really be called that, if memory serves correct.

 No.154092

It's basically the streaming community hiding behind anime avatars. There is a small portion of the board that does look at the hobby and etc. but by and large the people this attracted is why some people have not been back from the bunkers.

if you set up a piece of software that uses ip addresses as the way of user identification on a network where ip addresses are meaningless then you obviously need to bring on an application layer method of user identification
for instance, kohlchan allows tor/i2p posting. if you crack an argon2d hash, you get a session. then you can post freely. if you misbehave your session is revoked and you'll have to crack another hash. since argon2d is designed to be painfully slow for cracking, it essentially works as a PoW solution that guarantees the user's anonymity while making it a hassle for troublemakers
of course it won't deter the most egregious spammers but ip bans won't either

I figured since it has been a bit over a month, we should see what has happened to 4chan since he downtime. It seems like overall, 4chan has recovered some pre-hack traffic bu it is still missing around 5000 posts/day of activity and it has plateaued. Looking around at some of the boards, it seems like most has recovered and in fact, some boards have grown. However, if you look at the top four losers from >>152500, although there has been some recovery, /vg/, /pol/, /vt/ and /a/ have all still declined and have not gotten back the users from pre-hack. Only when you get to /a/ do you see traffic is back to normal largely. Not sure how long this situation will last and if it is because summer is starting but I will keep an eye out for when autumn hits.

Meant /vg/, /pol/, /vt/ and /v/ sorry, and excuse the mispellings. Here's /vg/ chart. Just that board by itself is accounting for around 3000 posts missing but it is still climbing back up and same with /pol/. Something like /vt/ is a lot more dire because traffic peaked and then fell off and only hit equilibrium a week ago but that board seemed to have the most offshots, there were 2 websites they splintered off to other than 4chan.

On the Tor boards, lambdaplusjs has temporarily shut down posting for everyone but the moderators and is brainstorming ways to open back up, possibly less anonymously, without the constant spam.

Some posters have taken refuge at aoichan which was mentioned at >>153822.
http://i57jbsj7eainn7yzg3vgx2xjj7nwkbpgvrtxcq5lmcjdsja23pydfbqd.onion/b/554
Unfortunately the refugees also include the unwanted (by the lambdaplusjs admin) poster known as "/pol/ schizo" (see >>153908) who has already posted long rants on multiple boards about killing his enemies and their kids. Fortunately, the spammer hasn't followed. In related news, aoichan has merged their /pol/ and /zoo/ boards into "/poo/".

no, it's not. some drooling retard from 4/qa/ said he ate most of a container of multivitamin gummies because they tasted good. that place was a breeding ground for underaged retards still in middle school. (wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if they were younger though.)

 No.154669

>>154586
i'm sure those multivitamin gummies tasted great that's why he ate most of the container. the collagen powder i ordered was out so on a whim i bought some collagen gummies and they're delicious. whenever i ate 2 of them i had wanted to eat the rest of them cause the taste was addictive. i actually ordered some other gummies but they aren't even as good.

tl;dr: the vitamin/collagen gummies can taste better than actual gummies.

>Two days ago, our previous registrar (Epik.com) permanently suspended our domain and banned my account, citing a violation of Code 1466A (a law concerning "obscene" visual representations involving minors, ie. loli pr0nz) - all without any prior notice or warning. They initially intended to permanently seize heyuri.net, and stated their decision was final. However, after some persistence - and citing Ashcroft v. Free Speech Coalition - I managed to persuade them to allow a domain transfer to a new registrar. Thus Heyuri survives yet another near-death situation. Onward!

I think people do consider boorus to be a type of imageboard so...
danbooru is 20 years old and is using the same 1995 era clipart party hat that 4chan does for its birthday. Aquaplus, the source of Tamaki, just had its 30th anniversary a few months ago. We're all getting old!

Update: Lambdaplusjs re-opened and has been trying various changes to fight the spam, most of which have had limited success. In particular, harsher cooldowns and captchas led to the spammer posting nearly 24/7 while few other people were able or willing (depending on whether cooldowns or captchas were the limiting factor) to post. At the moment, the site is using an improved version of the old /pending/ system. When posts come at an unusually high rate, the posts are collapsed to a stub in threads and don't show up at all in the index, until a moderator reviews them. There has also been an increase in moderator activity, presumably because the mods don't want to see the site forced into going account-only.

About 90% of the posts on Aoichan are now being made by one race-obsessed poster known to others as "/pol/ schizo". Although he makes most of his posts on /poo/, he is not contained there, and fills up the other boards with posts that are not always political but feature similar levels of stupidity and delusion.
