Is /pol the new /b or am I just becoming out of touch with trap, cuck, furries, bananas, loli, waifu's, and OP not fucking delivering?
Why am I such a faggot?

Actual oldfag here
It's not you, /b/ stopped being relevant when 9gag overtook the meme market and all that was left on /b/ was niche porn threads and the same repost of YLYL pictures everyday for the past 8 years

NOT AN ARGUMENT

This more or less.
/pol/ definitely isn't "the new /b/", each board shitposts their own niche memes, some just more so than others (pol, v, tv, sp...)
If you're talking sheer volume of users, I think we're in the top 3-5 as far as traffic goes. The election this year has a lot to do with the increased tragic and shitposting

I guess this makes sense. I never really paid much attention to the content, until recently when I noticed I was skipping pages of trash.
Then it hit me the /b/ is dead meme had actually happened.

>Why am I such a faggot?
Because you are Australian.

>Expecting anything other than /b/ on 4chan
most people migrated from b to other boards, and those who didn't get infected with b-cancer within the first week. 4chan is hazardous.
/b/ is full of children now.
Seriously just go on there for a few minutes and you will see.

I'd say it's a mix of /b/ tier comedy like pranks / doxxing / causing trouble in general and political discussion.
To be honest it's perfect for me, I loved the old /b/ and have gotten involved in politics the last few years. It's just the rampart racemixing propaganda and liberals smearing anything right wing is just old and boring.
How many threads a day do you see where it's some retarded photo with some "facts" and you just know everything in it is wrong and deceitful. Purely just to provoke a response or because the retard actually believes those things.
All in all 7/10. 8 chan I'd give 8.5/10
It's hard for me to imagine anyone going to /b/ unless they're 13. It just seems so irrelevant at this point - not because 4chan or meme culture is irrelevant - quite the opposite, but as other anon said, the action has migrated to other boards and the potent meme game is here, /tv/, etc.

It happened years ago. Name the last good or even halfway memorable thing that came out of /b/.
>>69091328
There is nothing but porn on /b/ now.
I spend whole shift on friday on /b/ there were like 4 good threads....2 of them got spiderman nuke
>>69093253
Fappening but I guess it originated on another board.
Other than that the frog space program years ago. Shit, it did die years ago.
I can't even remember the last time I saw an efg thread on /b/.
It's completely different from what it started off as.
It's just porn now.
/b/ is like an edgier version of facebook with porn.
They think they're cool with ED but haven't been funny in years.
