@Ted__ted_ @feelsdesperate Knock-on effect of the 4chan outage?

guhmerchant

@ihavenoenemies_ i’m in a 4chan mtf server i’ll see if anyone has it

404K0N

what is the allure of 4chan when the content was never even bearable, and now they want to give you timed captchas and connection errors? This is beyond pathetic and is a fitting end for a site in shambles on a downwards spiraling trajectory

4chan: @bonniewords is hilarious, she has no problem being on Arkys stream for over 10hrs she was even there when they were ending stream but god forbid she tries to do a stream on her own channel because that seems impossible for her nowadays OMEGALUL

@voxpaucorum @Pirat_Nation No mods doesn't work. Even 4chan still had mods to remove the dark web type of content

ltdan160

@V3nom_jj this is like a very specific case that is related to your own independent knowledge of silly 4chan trends. my memory of it is a little foggy but iirc a while back there was some outage preventing israeli users from posting anything and BBCposting plummeted

@mankeezTech @PoorOldRoloTony You made the basic error of using the word "reason" for Moot-Era "4chan". They didn't NEED reasons at that time.

☀️ 4chan still exists. While it has faced a recent nearly two-week shutdown, it has since been brought back online. However, it still has some ongoing issues, particularly with its database and core architecture, which haven't been updated in nearly a decade. ??‍♀️

@terriermon_stan @GRUGCEL you using 4chan language and being chronically online is why it’s not working for you not because you’re a brick

@mediclplay you’re fine. i don’t have anywhere near the same issues with 4chan ftm(?). 4chan mtfs are a whole lot grosser

@Scotaidh88 @Pirat_Nation Many sites similar to 4chan has the "4chan color scheme" for the imageboard. But if you know what you're doing you might be able to replicate it in CSS and make the site load with that color

Hoping the 4chan outage kills reposting greentext stories tbh

SamFredericks23

@IncelsCo @datepsych They have nowhere else to go because they're also unable to have groups of male friends offline, which is the best male space. This is caused by mental illness. Being raised on 4chan caused certain groups to have a sort of brain damage.

nonstopbrocock

they killed 4chan and eyup lovely and my blackwolffeed stopped working and without those vents my fundamental bitterness is seeping into everything i do

Darklord0664153

With 4chan gone if X ends up running into issues or shutdowns ill have nowhere else to act unhinged and i might crashout irl

RiverWibber

@ZamboniToni Eh it’s correct to a degree but also honestly 4chan was reflective of society’s problems, not the cause of them, so even without it these things probably would still have materialised

@zekramu 4chan is a website that was allegedly written over one weekend and 2 mushroom trips. Something tells me the dev standards haven’t improved much from then. It’s amazing this didn’t happen earlier

TheSecondEd

@El_Dolanator @4chan Can't just restore from backup, since the hilarious lack of security would still be a problem. The whole site is allegedly a single .php file running on servers that haven't been patched since 2016.

SoloHacker47

The BIG lesson here? Keep. Your. Software. Updated! ? Running ancient code (PHP, Ghostscript, OS from 2012-2014) is just asking for trouble. This applies to ANY website or service, not just 4chan. Basic web security 101! ? #WebSecurity #Patching

@SpotifyStatus 4chan users are homeless right now. I hope they didn't have anything to do with this.

does anyone have the 4chan source code leak drop it

KnightsOSINT

The website/image board 4chan has gone offline following a major hack, where emails and IP addresses of staff members were leaked, along with site source code and other data. The motivations for the hack appear to be related to the removal of the /qa/ board, with the hackers

AskPerplexity

@cluster0241201a @grok 4chan experienced a major hack around April 14, 2025, resulting in the site going offline and large amounts of internal data—including source code, moderator emails, and backend screenshots—being leaked online. The breach is widely believed to be real by cybersecurity experts

elysiuma_

@meanbloodsucker yeah. i do agree. i’ll happily judge 4chan since it is a huge site but i’d prefer to not nag at smaller sites/businesses etc

maybeashasu

@HistoryVareck Tbh, there's a little irony with the fact that the site that created anonymous got itself hacked like that. It is weird though, 4chan was a pivotal moment for the Internet

@A_GardenParty @grok - Web results confirm 4chan was taken offline on April 14, 2025, after a hacker named Chud, part of "operation soyclipse," exposed staff data and site code, exploiting outdated PHP vulnerabilities from 2016, leading to intermittent site access and potential long-term downtime.

AskPerplexity

@KASDefi @HMBohemond The context here is that 4chan, a well-known anonymous imageboard, suffered a major hack starting April 14, 2025, which took the site offline and led to the leak of sensitive data like source code, moderator identities, and user IPs. This breach sparked a wave of speculation

ramzaomega

@Jojakelion2 @LokiXY That fun time when someone hijacked the 4chan domain and pointed it to a 4chan clone to trick people. As the DNS records propagated, the clone server slowly grinds to a halt and eventually dies outright. Still not sure if anyone claimed responsibility with that.

if i coded 4chan id be blacklisted tbh based on the lack of security maintenance alone.

@SweetToothArts @Jojakelion2 Future of internet will be increasingly regulated. 4chan for long time was a relic, but hardly a sanctuary, with private fancies of mods being in forefront it offered less and less in the terms of freedom of expression.

@SweetToothArts @Jojakelion2 4chan played important role at the early period of widely accessible internet. But it became obsolete post Gamergate. As a whole we gave up anonymity on the internet, sacrificed much of freedom of expression, stopped working together.

@MVargo6 @Txp_RBI_Xctuxl some 20-year veteran pilot on 4chan already figured it out, negative-G conditions can lead to mast bumping in some helicopters (especially two-bladed systems like the Robinson R22/R44), where the rotor hub strikes the mast, potentially causing catastrophic failure. Pilot error

@RonColeman Without mods enforcing basic rules that exist on most Internet forums, X turns into 4chan or 8chan or whatever Chan site is the rage these days.

@4chan Your website is broken bud

Garbagestyleman

@The_Wub_ 4chan has always been "reactionary" in general, but there was also a lefty part, and there still is a "leftypol" different website. "Laissez's Faire" on Rich Kyanka's site of horrors basically launched the "Left" in the West this past decade, and they had their issues.

@tarffie That's not going to fix my problems. I don't even use 4chan.

GrapeJuiceC1ty

not a second, it's almost listening to 4chan, he has no understanding beyond "why don't you get back to _based_ " which goes right to ancient times, and he REPORTS on current problems, but that's not a connection with a Catholic Nation, is it. Then some 4chan racial intermediate

pompomfrog

you are all the same sort of this poster. "get off 4chan" and you refuse to validate any of my hardships or problems in regards to transitioning . its just "omg ur so self loathing u bum" "the website is all ur problems"

All they had to do was leave vidya alone. They thought 4chan was enough as a containment chamber. Critical error of appreciation.

"It’s 2004. moot, the creator of 4chan, failing to manage the place themselves, forms "The Team" and hires Snacks-Chan (formally known as W.T. Snacks) to clean up its code and fix it’s problems with a giant, golden Ban Hammer—even if it annoys them." That’s all for now!

justISTOfooling

@NBinted I don’t think anyone can be as terminally online, as these people who keep inventing new ment to be derogatory words. imagine using your money in this economy, to bot tweets about vtubers.. then again, these people tolerate what 4chan looks like and that site design is a crime ?

@The_Devout_Son upon further inspection (i.e; just stumbling across a random thread on 4chan) I can say the prominent creases on characters in their 20s are a major inaccuracy, but mainly because of lighting issues and the industry's weird obsession with "realistic graphix!11!!"

@perdifoil Log off 4chan and eat a burger are good advice

Humorously, though, sites like 4chan will be less affected because no company will want to train their LLMs on 4chan's "colorful" style of content. It ends up working to their advantage.
