>>7183766>>7183686Since I've been there since the start, I'll spoonfeed.
It's a bit misleading, /wvt/ was "formed" from talks about western indies on /vyt/ back on /jp/ which escalated with Artemis awful debut and Rose (Africat) "saving" debut going on at the same time.
For a while it was just about a few western indies (Africat, Nina, Mushi, Mocca), adding a few others until Koopa debuted and her and her fanbase came to /wvt/ since she was a western vtuber and there wasn't any /vt/ yet.
She did inspire a few anons to start vtubing, like Eira (see) or Carmine (first wvt male vtuber), which in the few months after prompted a dozen a debut one after the other.
Later, more and more vtubers from outside also joined making the viewers a rarity.
It was not really some "pro tranny" shithole, as shitposting about mocca was a timeloop for months, tho in recent time it may have become more SJW-like from being 60%+ vtubers posting including a few "progressive" ones.
