hello,

I have been diving into these anonymous boards and stuff. I wanted to know if anyone use it for any actual purposes like for getting some tech knowledge or something?

    No, I never went down that rabbit hole, which is interesting in hindsight. I went straight from old-school forums and chatrooms (where I’m sure I was very obviously a child) to Reddit.

    By the time I was hearing about it it was just “that Nazi pedo incel site”.

        From what I heard, there was more going on initially. It’s just that that’s what tends to collect in totally unmoderated spaces, and 4chan fell victim to it.
