I liked the image board format. 4chan's design with Hexbear moderation would be my ideal social media site.
I think I remember there being ideas of a hexbear adjacent image board in the youth of the site but that never panned out sadly
is that not what leftypol is? idk I can't stand the format
Their culture sucks a lot worse than ours. It's not as bad as 4chan proper (which I haven't used in over a decade because of how bad it is) but there are enough endemic bad takes that I can't stand leftypol either.
I wonder to what extent the format itself informs how the culture develops.
Superstructure: website culture
Base: website format
In the same way that Hexbear was formed from Reddit refugees, leftypol was formed from 8chan refugees, and 8chan was probably the worst large site on the internet while it was operational. I don't hate leftypol but I have a pretty thick skin, wouldn't expect most people to want to deal with that culture
