I think my only contact with 4chan was to get JAV content and also my first contact with torrenting.

I open it periodically just to see what’s up. I regret it every time :3

Maybe they didn’t care to the same degree but unfortunately incel culture was fostered in several areas, and a lot of them are younger than mid 30s.

Oh incels are a massive problem. But younger millenials and genz and the like got radicalized by reddit and twitter and the like, not 4chan. And then they just went straight to 8chan if they left their festering grounds at all.
