I guess a certain infamous website with the number 4 in the name might be dead

Well, that’s life.

The poor bigots will have to shitpost on Twitter now.

 

[Spacerunner357]

Oh no what's it called?! You did say might so:)

First endchan and now this? Dark days.

What cause of death? Sued into oblivion, drowned in red ink, or just abandoned to sounds of crickets?

Hacked and doxxed from what I gather.

Twitters quality will be soon in the negative.

 

[Representing_Tromba]

It is both good and bad. Good because it I gone and so are all of the conspiracy bots. Bad because we will soon be seeing site refugees appearing looking for a new chat room.

Yes. There's a decent short write-up on BleepingComputer: https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/ne...-board-4chan-taken-down-following-major-hack/
They may or may not return.

they are too unhealthy for your diet, it's best they go to twitter and start a war there instead.

4kun was oddly diverse. A weird number of career mathematicians were active there. Several advancements in number theory published in academic journals are credited to "anonomous 4chan user".

If that’s true, it’s a great tragedy.
But I think there’ll just be another site, sooner or later.
An alternative to forums and social media won’t die as long as there are people who can’t stand them.
