I am not joking when I say that 4chan is a more rejuvenating and life affirming place than Linkedin

  Trolls posting absolute garbage /b/ are at least trying to evoke some feeling in you. Hard to say the same from the ‘I had dinner with my wife on a yacht. Here’s what it taught me about Series A VC relationships’ posting full of Claudisms and emojis.
  Who’s the target audience for that?

  Apropos, some of the most wholesome community spirit I've seen in recent years has been amongst the degenerate gamblers of wallstreetbets.

  4chan is where people go to show who they truly are.
  It's pure Greater Internet Fuckwad Theory[0] in action.

    Reducing it to this assessment misses a lot of nuance. Sci is probably one of the better engineering boards on the internet today. There's probably a lot of overlap between HN users and 4chan users actually.

    Ah, I made the classic mistake of conflating /b/ with all of 4chan.

    /g/ is pretty fun during advent of code. It's nice to see people discussing solutions.
