Newfag (previously underage B&S) here, it’s been like 8-9 months since I discovered the site thanks to /cow/ and searching for Kiara rrats of all things and I wouldn’t have looked back after a certain point if not for @vt__txt reminding me this place exists
I think I only became a regular after April, although it helped that back in February when I was lurking (yes) that site, Reddit was circlejerking over their hate of Mushoku Tensei and things like Reddit Meme Review and r/goodanimemes didn’t convince me to keep browsing it. No, I’m not apologizing
I’ve tried to escape from this site before, but the alternatives are Twitter which is mostly cancer for almost any discussion and MAL which doesn’t give me too much interest and I would only use it for anime. Funny enough, I’ve been lurking on Twitter for almost a year and I only created an account recently, just in case
As for /vt/, I think the most shocking moments, or better said shitstorms, were everything related to the Connor arc and Yubigate, the Hololive x VShojo collabs and Coco’s graduation. Nowadays, I stay in my oshi’s general whenever she’s streaming, browse the catalog mostly ignoring bait, and sometimes visit (and jerk off) to threads like HFZ and UOH
You know? While this board can give migraines due to things like tribalism and dramafagging, it certainly helped me to learn a bit more about vtubing, in the past and the present. I’m still a Holofag, but if I stayed in any other site, I don’t think I would know who is Kaguya Luna, Kuzuha or Pippa. I certainly gained a new perspective of a few things
Oh, I also visit some of the other boards. /a/ is not that bad and I keep going for the MHA threads; /v/ is of questionable quality but I still like visiting it and it’s not totally useless; I only go to /b/ for the loli threads; /pol/ is mental; /qa/ is probably the worst board I visited; I didn’t know /po/ was a thing but I’m glad for its existence. I don’t really care for the rest of the site desu
