Basically what it says in the title. A bunch of them just suddenly stepped down, and the sub became noticeably more based. Does anyone know what happened?
Also, AoV got banned from pReddit and has apparently stopped posting here around the same time. Is he okay? The two things aren't related, are they?
I liked 8chan. Site had a nice userbase and was growing well. Shame it got taken out back and shot. 8kun just wasn't the same and everyone already left to the other options.
Is there an 'other option' that has any decent traffic or do you mean gab, voat, et. al.?
Not really.
Most of the "bunkers" were onion sites or lesser known chans that didn't fare well.
The whole saga of 8chan was a very good move by the authority structures, sadly. Condensed the opposition and then completely split it.
Mlpol was one of the funniest and most poignant things I've ever seen and I honestly think it TERRIFIED those in intelligence positions.
