Too many eyes lets normalfags in. Clutter up threads with nonsense. They also see others poking bears and want in on the action too, without any idea of how to do so effectively. I've been watching GenoSamuel's Comprehensive History of Chris Chan, and around ep21, there's a dude who completely fails at trolling Chris. The easiest man in the world to troll and he just whiffs so painfully. That's the kind of person increased attention attracts, and enough of those will kill that site imo
At the end of the day, anyone sufficiently interested in lolcows and edrama already knew about the site, it was effectively gatekept. In the public eye, it's harder to do so. Not that I particularly care either way, I've never posted and only check it once or twice a year when there's some kerfuffle going on. Think the last time I looked was when Shadman got arrested. But it's the principle of the thing to me. KF feels like one of the last places the old internet can still exist
KF now has 3x more users than before it was "dropped".
I can only hope they'll get bored and leave. A large userbase is only detrimental to a site like that
How so? Because too much crap gets posted? Then you allow only approved users to post.

Which KF is up and running other than Tor?
I haven't been able to access any of the alts since shit went down.
Just tried .top with no luck.
.net works just fine for the past few days
Thanks.
I haven't tried .net since the Cloudflare betrayal
