That is disappointing, after so many years of webms with sound and multiple pictures per post, I would rather be on a board with these features, but only 10 users, as opposed to cuckchan. It kinda feels like a Windows vs Linux debate, in which cuckchan is Windows, whereas this is is some obscure distro that few people use, and got splintered from Ubuntu.
I wouldn't be surprised to learn, that cuckchan actually has spyware, and not just some rumors anon post from time to time.
With the risk of sounding a bit like niggerpill, what will kill imageboards(both this and cuckchan), won't be the US government nor retard moderation(though they are certainly not helping), but the lack of new blood. Kids today won't go to 4chan, and maybe not even on Reddit, but on Discord as it probably has the best of both worlds: you get to be somewhat anonymous, post videos, images, shitpost and have a private safe space for you and your buddies to hang out and video chat. You can create your own
board channel, about whatever subject you want, and moderate it however you want, kinda like they way 8chan works. I should mention that by "dead" I don't mean "nobody is using it anymore", but rather "too few people are using it", kinda like how IRC channels are a "dead" right now. Obviously there are people who use it, but it's not the best or first option when choosing a space to discuss certain topics.
Whatever new blood does trickle down, will be of lower and lower quality. For reference, I am 28 years old, and have a bit over 10 years of experience with imageboards, but that makes me 2012 newfag cancer, which in 2013-2014 was seen as the worst thing imaginable and the cancer that will kill cuckchan. I can't even imagine how much worse the 2022 newfag cancer is right now, only thing is that most "oldfags" are probably the same 2012 cancer, as the 2004 original fags either died or moved on. As the old blood dies or moves on, if there is no new blood to replace it, then the
organism imageboard will wither and die.
Now what can be done? First o all, I would like anons, to be grateful for what they still have. I know it doesn't sound much, and I am not telling you to be contempt with the way thigns are right now, I am saying to be grateful that we still have a space to discuss stuff in an anonymous way. For all we know tomorrow there can be some emergency bill passed by the US government to shut down all imageboards, including cuckchan. So be happy with what you have, but at the same time fight for a better future. Other than that, all I can recommend is to advertise the place to newer kids, in order to draw blood. Where and how? I don't know, I am sorry.
