Slurs
Not sure if this is against the rules or not
The IPs of all janitors and admins have been leaked
4chan’s entire tech stack is built of outdated and insecure myPHP
Not sure where the source code is from but I think it’s the forum that did all of this in the first place
Was something of value lost?
nope
No, in fact we might begin healing. 🙏

It’s a famous hacker.
Holy shit. Has this ever happened before?
4chan’s had leaks before but it was nothing compared to this
Why’s anyone surprised this happened? Was 4chan supposed to be a super up to date and modern website?
Pool’s closed.
Is this the work of the mysterious hacker 4 chan?
I wish I cared. But have fun whoever wants this I guess.
it feels like this is big news but I can’t seem to get myself to care
This is a huge blow to the Russian misinfo machine, unironically. If its down for a while, it will have some big effects
i hope so 🤞
Bullshit. Russia was certainly not targeting 4chan. If any russian agent was trying to push propaganda, he’d probably be drowned in “piss off faggot” responses lmao. Why would they even try to target a platform where 95% of the people are just shitposting as if their lives depended on it and 5% are mentally ill.
Not everything you don’t like is russian propaganda.
4chan is a hub for misinformation and conspiracies. Its full of racist, misogynistic, and overall hateful content. That content is not moderated at all how you think it is. It is a breeding ground of hate.
Disagree mostly - while there are those boards, like /pol/ or /b/, there’s also normal boards with … I wouldn’t say “normal” people, but relatively speaking, sane people.
That content is not moderated at all how you think it is
4chan is barely moderated.
It is a breeding ground of hate.
Overall, I saw a lot more hate on reddit than on 4chan. But mostly because I’m not a /pol/ user.
You forgot to list like eight other boards that have the most racist, the most sexist, the most rape promoting incels of all time
Reddit doesn’t compare at all
Idk, there were a lot of subreddits spewing hate, and they were online for years before public pressure mounted and they shut it down. Hell, we had shit like “abuseporn” which was online for over 4 years until it was randomly found by a journalist and then shut down lmao.
Youll never change my mind that the content on reddit was ever more cruel or unmoderated. And 4chan has been around MUCH longer than reddit.
4chan stopped being relevant since they introduced asinine bot prevention. It’s pretty much impossible to post there at all
It’s pretty much impossible to post there at all
Huh? The capachas were a low bar to clear to post. I had no trouble at all on various boards.
You have to buy a 4chan pass, register an account (lol) or wait 15 minutes to post
I guess I just leave a tab open because it is a non-issue for me, at least on /tg/ and /k/. The timer doesn’t seem to reset on threads opened from the existing tab. That or my ad blocking extensions block whatever janky system the site uses.
I made comments (multiple in one thread without seeing a timer reset) as recently as a couple of days ago with no issue.
No one posts there anymore, it’s too busy

that’s a moot point
Lol
nitter.poast.org also works to circumvent X logins
Oh no…
Of course its php
Nothing wrong with php, except not updating it.
That’s not a surprise, nor was it unknown. Pretty much all pre-“social media” discussion sites were PHP. Myspace probably was, too. PHP also isn’t intrinsically insecure, it just doesn’t lend itself very easily to security.
Nintoddler being a slur is somehow very funny to me.
