Big inspiration for the question is the assertion I’ve seen on Lemmy a few times that this user base is as bad/misogynistic/hateful. But also just curious.

I used to be a regular on /tv/ and /r9k/ between 2011-2015, I was even a tripfriend on /r9k/ for a while. It was very entertaining, all the interesting schizos were on the chans at some point. I even “drew” my own wojaks and pepes, lol, but only once each because I have no artistic talent, I’m just a big yapper.
/r9k/ was always a fucking trip. I only ever lurked but I used to frequent lot’s of boards. Now I solely see if theres a decent meme to find in a ylyl thread once or twice a week.
That’s kind of surprising. You’re the outspoken Catholic, right? How did you rationalize that back then? (Not a callout, I’m aware people change and grow)
Outspoken monotheist, Muslim persuasion. 🤓 And I wasn’t then, lol, that’s a more recent development. At the same time, much of the content was just depressed teens being edgy, not necessarily evil or overly malicious. /tv/ was basically all memes! Let’s not forget the chans had blue and red boards and blue boards were sfw. Fashion, cooking, technology, and many other boards were pretty “normal”.
My bad. I do lose track of people. Thanks for the honest answer 👍
Peace, brother. ✌️
