I was never in 4chan, and it's only very recently I've found out that it isn't just a Nazi forum. Like, I legitimately thought it was just some far right wing forum. Like truth social is to Twitter, 4chan is to forums. I had no idea it had other content.
Depends on what part of 4chan you find yourself in.
Imagine how much easier it is to astroturf when you don't have screennames or history to fake.
It becomes what someone with an agenda needs at the time.
It's also entirely useless for marketing or for selling anything, because it is infested with the kind of content that infests a place when there are no content restrictions, and will likely damage a brand more than it helps.
Also I'm pretty sure everyone there sees everyone else there the way you'd see vermin, as the literal dregs of society. Hard to astroturf when nobody reading has a thimble's worth of respect for you or what you say. Very self-aware kind of humor. I don't know how well astroturfing would work in 4chan for the major subset of the audience(The ones with a minimum of common sense).
That second part is definitely true, 4chan is definitely well aware of what they are.
I genuinely think that's the only thing that kept 4chan around and pure for this long. It's too chaotic for enshittification as no business want to touch it, and their not interested in growth.
The astroturfing and botting is constant and prevalent but everyone is suspicious and hostile over everything that it's an instant shit slinging argument where no one is convinced. Hell, I would guess that half the fighting is bots with opposing agendas.
It still got Trump elected, along with T_D and hyper vigilant moderating of contrary narrative.
same here, but i know that the best of 4chan ended up here
Blue boards are like 75% clean of Nazi filth. R9K is 60% clean. /pol/ has nothing but Nazi filth. It is the containment board. /b/ is just porn
Remember when /b/ was good?
Fool! /b/ was never good.

4chan is a multi faceted beast. Like an exquisite coprolite cut and polished by a master gem cutter.
