Why has this board degenerated so much recently?
I know I am on 4chan and I should not be surprised in the slightest, we are the cesspool of internet and we'll always be. But it is rare to see such amount of retards, trolls, haters and shitposts on the whole board.
The whole tribalism, trying to stire drama and put Nijisanji and Hololive fanbases against each other, dozens of bait threads in the catalog at any given time, which get hundreds of replies instead of being ignored and called out like it happens on most other boards here.
4chan has a standard, usually. A very low standard, with regular shitposts and drama stirs, but still a standard. Trolls used to be called out here, and ignored for the most part. It made at least posting and reading here manageable. You could still have a sane conversation.

What happened? Why is /vt/ progressively getting more and more of a burning dumpster fire? We always had bait, shitposts, unicorns. But it was never to this magnitude. It has got to the point where it is taking over the entire board, and it annoys me to no end.
