I started browsing lainchain again recently after kind of forgetting about it for several years and it's just not the same anymore… can any lainonrolls fill me in on what went down with it
No.2594
>>2590.jp rebranded to arisuchan with a modern-looking css that looked really good.
Apparently it died because the site was raided and the mods just gave up. It had less activity than lainchan.org, so that might have been a factor.
No.2595
>>2590>>2594shit, that is extremely uncomfy. /cyb/ on laichan used to be a really interesting board
No.2596
A great thing about slow image boards is that sometimes you can make a thread, come across it again years later, and forget that you were the one who made it.
No.2599
>>2590>>2594It's quite weird to think about all that, given that Kalyx always was a total glitterboy, who (if I remember correctly) used the server donation money to buy some equipment for himself.
Appleman's Lainchan had a rough start, then normalized, but it's still not the same place.
For the record, InstallGentoo has the whole story:
https://wiki.installgentoo.com/index.php/LainchanShame I didn't get to visit Arisuchan, I heard it was pretty good in spite of everything.
No.2601
>>2600To be honest, I never had any issues with how Lainchan looked and worked, quite the opposite. Can't say for Arisu, but if the graphics weighed 30MB a page…
Last I've been to Lain, it wasn't *that* bad.
No.2605
>>2601Lainchan is a pretty good site but it's getting more and more /pol/ types posting on it unfortunately, and /cyb/, the comfiest board, is no more
No.3018
At first, I was onboard with other imageboards like julay and the like, but now I don't have the mental energy to stick around in those communities. The smaller more niche imageboards tickle my fancy more. I get so tired of politics.

No.3034
>>3030It was a one of a kind friend, if you got to experience it cherish those memories and fun you had. I explored far and wide for something like it many times already but nothing seems close to taking its place.
I came to understand the anguish of the lizchan lads and many others, still longing for the place they used to call home as even when welcomed with open arms to other sites there's that unshakable feeling of being like being a guest in another person's house.

>>3038That's what is so bizarre and I remember the beginnings of the lainonsphere being left-anarchist.

No.3042
>>3038>>3039The lainosphere seems to have two types of people.
First paranoic right-wingers, second left-anarchist.
The people from the second group usually also have some places they use pseudonymously, i.e. Mastodon. Maybe that's what ultimately drives them off the boards in the end.
No.3048
After trying to find a good imageboard for 10 years I gave up and went back to 4chan, but never ever post on it because I refuse to allow my browser to load anything Google. I only check /a/ for threads of stuff that recently updated because it's when threads tend to be the least bad.

I really hate wizchan. Roachmin the current admin there is such a manchild that gives permanent bans to anyone who speaks against his blatant abuse of power. His team of mod-cliquers are the same as well. Somebody should frag his ass honestly.
