Well it looks like 8chan.moe is also down, possibly due to 4chan anons seeking refuge. I haven't seen the full details of the 4chan leaks, but it makes me wonder if it's bad enough that 8chan will make a comeback, even though not in it's original form.
@PurpCat 4chan isn't just down. There have also been leaks about the site running on outdated software, having trannies and college professors moderating the place, etc. I don't know the full extent of it though.
@beardalaxy @PurpCat /v/'s only relevance these days seems to be a place to leak source code and upcoming games.
@PurpCat I'm pretty sure that the vast majority of posts there aren't even from actual humans. The place lost it's creativity long ago and now it's just pepe-wojak template threads.
