Why does the internet seem to get "emptier" by the day? I mean most places seem like a ghost town with barely any activity. It almost seems like people just disappeared, which shouldn't be possible.

This isn't a schizo post either, just a genuine observation. What is causing the apparent slowdown of all online activity? Where are all the people going? Are people just slowly disconnecting from the online space and doing something else with their lives? Was there a massive amount of bot activity everywhere that has suddenly stopped over the last couple of years, which makes the internet seem slower than it used to be?

The quality of the interactions online has also seen a massive drop. On /g/ 10 years ago during the last ram price spike you had genuinely good discussions and insightful posts about the situation. Now it's just a bunch of pepe pictures with "Lmao I got mine" and almost no genuine insight such as calculating the die-sizes between fabs and calculating output and decrease in supply from HBM to calculate when the supply shock should be over. This was just a random example but even hackernews is slowly dying out.

A couple of potential factors that I can think of
>Everyone primarily interacts through places like discord which isn't on the public web anymore
>Since 2022 LLM breakthrough most people interact with their LLM instead of with other humans online anymore
>Economic situation is so bad that people are too busy with work to use the internet anymore
>Internet quality has dropped so much that there is a downward spiral of quality users leaving the internet, which lowers quality, which causes more to leave.

I'm guessing it's the last mentioned option because I am also considering leaving this place (not 4chan, the entire internet) as it's not even worth visiting these places anymore.

It's going to get a lot worse as Youtube is actually dropping users in favor of tiktok. And the worst of it all is that data shows users PREFER AI generated content. Straight up users continue scrolling the moment they realize something ISN'T AI. Most users are not like us so no one is going to cater to us.

The 4chan situation is also completely unstable, how many more years (months?) will it be viable to have captcha that keep bots out? There will be an obvious inflection point where one day 4chan is still usable and the next day it's just dead because of the AI activity.

Almost seven years and she's still here, how much longer are they going to shill this fat bitch?

NTA but just ask him for a popular yuri community that ISN'T troon infested lmao. You can try discord, even fucking steam groups, twitter alternatives, boomer message boards, it doesn't matter. Yuri is a troon magnet regardless of what website it appears on, with no exceptions. 4chan's site culture vehemently hates troons so yurifags here will usually deny it. The opposite being true literally everywhere else with no exceptions is enough to conclude that yuri is a mainly MtF trans hobby

Just like journalists ripped their asses off decades ago to claim that the internet was a waste of time that nobody used, they do the same today. They invent lies about nobody using AI, even though my grandmother literally uses it to generate good morning texts. They say AI is not capable of producing code, even though several famous programmers have started using AI in recent months. The only ones I see saying that AI is bad are anonymous programmers here or on leddit, useless programmers, by the way.
There's clearly seething happening right now. I know it's hard to realise that your profession is obsolete, but it's better to accept it now and look for something else than to insist on the mistake and tomorrow it will be too late.

Don't be a Luddite.

This is one of the most physically revolting things I've seen in 20 years of 4chan, and I've watched cartel pitbulls eat that guys balls off.

I'm a cs student and I want to know how much I should practice vibecoding vs old fashioned coding. Personally I find vibecoding is much faster and better.
