So, a bunch of trolls got hacked? I’m not sure how I’m expected to feel about this, but frankly, I’m not feeling anything at all.

As someone who has never actually used 4chan, I have popcorn and am just sitting back and enjoying the shit show
That’s the best way to consume 4chan content.
well thing is, they might be searching for a new home
Oh many of them are here already.
It's like a circus, grab popcorn and watch.
The 4chan Captcha never worked for me, so I stopped trying years ago. I used to go there to troll trolls when I was in a mood.
Well it looks like 4Chan is ... [puts on shades] NoChan.... YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!
I looked at some of the leaked source code and my god the code smells are so rotten its like they had a dead horse in the back for a while and its developed a stank like an Eric Andre skit.
It increasingly looks like nobody would maintain this bundle of wax besides under-experienced juniors who threw themselves at it, and apparently after moot sold it, it was never touched. It runs on an extremely old version of FreeBSD and PHP.
The fact this happened now as opposed to any time in the past decade is, I have no words.

What's the point? 4chan seems like such a low value target.
A bunch of chuds got angry that they were banned because they went brigading against LGBTQ+ folk.
This was the end result

Start linking up 4chan IDs to real rich people like Musk or republican officials and watch trump start calling for the death penalty for the hacker.

Is this the end of 4 Chan?
If so, it's a fitting way for them to die.

That Reddit thread is a very strange experience for someone not of their culture
