Congress basically forced doxxed moot by Congress by being forced to testify. He originally wanted to refuse and stay home, but he would have gone to jail if he did.

The founder of the biggest anonymous image board wants to be left alone, what a shocker!

He made 4chan because SomethingAwful got tired of him and his friends shit posting anime.

And by ‘anime’ you mean hentai and loli.
mindbleach@sh.itjust.works 9 hours ago
Yeah that’s plainly worse than everything that’s happened because of this.

Fly high, moot. Be free.

Slither low my reptilian friend.

He must have fulfilled his dream and become a little girl.

Then he’d just be brutalized by his own platform.

I mean in all honesty if a time traveler did come back and wanted to do their best to destroy Society couldn’t have done much better job really.
Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 1 day ago
The time traveler was the one who convinced moot to sell. It all started going downhill after that.

Would be kind of ironic for the founder of 4chan

Not really, there’s a lot of queer folk on 4chan.

/b/ was never good.
rs.4chan.org was fucking awesome, though.

Does anyone remember canv.as? I loved that site. It was a really okay photo editor that’s better than every other free option around now. Me and the other guy who used it were so sad when it folded.

I’d like to think that he grew up and is widely embarrassed for what he’s done now.
lessthanluigi@lemmy.sdf.org 1 day ago
He pretty much did make a website for the moden neo-nazi movement, along with gamergate, and inspiring another website that made Q-anon, something that certain members of congress believe now.
I don’t know if these thing would or would not exist without this website. All I know is that it would have been less pronounced because of it.
The_Decryptor@aussie.zone 8 hours ago
One of the reasons 8chan was created, was that moot banned the gamergate crap from 4chan.
drmoose@lemmy.world 1 day ago
Yeah to me it seems very clear that 4chan is a net negative on the society. We all would have been better off if it wasn’t created and I say that as someone who did find value there in the early days (had a decent programming community)

4chan?! Fuuuuck dat… Prolly got no games…

I met Moot at Otakon 2007 and he was kind of a dick.
Interstellar_1@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 day ago
I have heard this fact before. Might have been on a 4chan retrospective video

i’ve always thought the logo was supposed to be reminiscent of the titular main character of Yotsuba&! which i think is a 4koma series.
