I appreciate the lainchan community

Hello everyone.
I wanted to say I really like this community. You all are very kind and courteous, something I don't see much more of, irl or on the Wired. This place is a breath of fresh air honestly. A comfortable place.
I wanted to know, what other communities do you know are like this? Can be any, even offline. What communities do you guys frequent, other than lainchan?

Heyuri seems pretty friendly in my experience. Danger/u/ also seems fine for the most part but there seems to be more willingness to start fights.

Thank you! I've also settled on here for the nice threads and comfy feel. The whole reason I watched SEL was because of Lainchan, hah!
I hang out on Sushichan too. Less activity, I think, but very focused on comfy stuff and anime. I remember there was a thread were they were planning anime watching sessions. (Also, I want to make a Tiny nod to Uboachan, Sushi's distant sister board. First board I started at when started frequenting imageboards. Not as comfy, but users like to share their slices of life to eachother.)

Whoa, love the look of the board. One more board to look at during my morning routine. :)

is this like your first day here or something? welcome and all but i do not find this to be the case, at best there are just slightly less assholes than on other similar sites.

I'm not the OP, but compared to ..other similar websites, lainchan is pretty good on that regard. People here are nicer.

I used to hang out on comfychan but after the last raid the site keeps being spammed with child porn on a near daily basis and it takes way too long for the mods to take it down.
I prefer textboards personally like 4-ch, world2chan and some English boards/threads on 5channel. I still lurk on 2channel and futaba chan from time to time. 4chan’s calmer boards like /out/ are pretty okay too.

Man, I wish Uboachan was more active. Anyone miss 420chan? What happened to that site? I heard the FBI took it down or something thanks to the nutso admin
Armitage · 2023-04-04 22:28
4chan gone nothing but trolling these days. Not to mention the number of users gone through the roof.
I am not sure about other chans
So this place has some of the early 4chan attempt at discovering collective internet wisdom.
SEL, GitS and Matrix makes a good theme for a more serious online space.

Thanks y'all. I appreciate this website still being here. I come and lurk most of the time but threads like these are just so wholesome, much needed.
Please be well.

I agree. Among imageboards lainchan is best.
>>35442
Amount of users on Danger/u/ is really small.
John Rain · 2023-04-07 13:24

Yeah, same here.
Even knowing such place like Lainchan exists in the Wired is giving me hope and thus indirectly making my life noticeably better.
Thanks, Lains.

The admin went on a hacktivist spree and got raided and is on the run and won't stop complaining about his ex. He also may or maynot be a fed.

420chan is coming back later this month I think, check the site for the info!
Lady 3Jane.. · 2023-06-13 05:52
That's how I felt when I first found it, but lately I find it very hostile.

Dito. There also seems to be unironic leftist / r*ddit types. My beliefs don't totally align with imageboard politics, but the level of normal person politics promoted here is odd and bad. I've seen posts defending the moral character of females, and using r*ddit terminology. Also, I added someone here on Matrix and they were mean to me.
Spike Spiegel · 2023-06-25 20:08
danger/u/ is nice but like >>35448 said the usercount is super small. only /u/ is actively used really

>Heyuri
You made me try it. I lurked a few minutes, posted a neutral 3 word answer and got derezzed one minute later for breaking rule 8.
I tried to find what the rules are but I can't find it.
I doubt they will attract a regular base.

Keep these two informations in your mind. Now, remember that it was an important site for the American election of 2016. Since then it only grew. It has become a hotbed for many ideas the people in power judge undesirable.
Keep remembering what happened before. Correct the reccord, shareblue. A lot of money was invested to fight extremism on this site.
Now, AI allow the same people to create a lot more posts to reduce the signal to noise ration to nothing and to make it an uninteresting place.
And it's exactly what is happening.
Lurk a bit and tell me how many time you see answers that could be used for anything like "you must be really uneducated to have this opinion". This sort of answers that look like it have been made by a 10 year old chatbot are everywhere.

Press home, then press rules. Theres the heyuri rules.

I'd say it's pretty generic experience with imageboards. But it takes quite a bit of time for a new user to either disappoint and give up or to assimilate.

it's still not back :(
i hope it come back soon
Eldon Tyrell · 2023-07-18 16:01
OP. Thank you for your thread, you read my mind, because i wanted to say something like that. I discovered lainchan literally today, and i'm so fuarrrking great for that, because times are soykafty now and people are just great here.

Thanks! To be honest, i'm not new at all, i used to access imageboards and textboards since i was 14. But now i dont do that anymore. But today i rediscovered lainchan. Don't know why i didn't give much attention, maybe now i'm more mature i guess. It is nice to see that people still using chans to be honest.
