Because the current generation wants constant recognition and internet points for the things they virtue signal about. Chatrooms had a level of Anonymity and anonymity online is dying.

I miss when emojis were called emoticons. Ah. The good ol' days.

I remember when you could nudge a motherfucker 200 times and it would essentially freeze up their computer for 5 minutes.

discord is hot right now. Also irc.

>>136390568
allowing people to change their font was a mistake

"public" areas are a hot bed for wrong think
now we have isolated chats like discord, where everyone must agree or face exile

You still don't understand that it's capitalism that does these things. Capitalism has sold the unsaleable for decades since the advent of "lifestyle marketing." With social media it is now atomized (likes, favorites, friends, etc.)

Blame "cultural Marxism" for society's ills when it is cultural capitalism that is to blame.

something like craigslist.org but instead chatlist.org where there's local chatrooms for every area in the world

the last generation to grow up without the internet used messageboards and stuff like telnet and bbs to post messages that usually had thought put into them since they could easily be seen

chatrooms like IRC, instant message programs like AIM, yahoo, ICQ, MSN started to take over this position as younger people found the internet, it became more convienent for instant response

next "social media" sites started to replace these for the next generation who were even more vain and narciscistic

people still do use chatrooms (IRC/Discord/Steam) but the internets so big now having friends on it is meaningless to people

But yeah normies want to do everything with the least effort. Current social media keeps them constantly connected to fucking everybody. The idea of going and opening up a program and setting aside time to converse with people you might God forbid not completely agree with is frightening to them now. It's sad but true.

For a small moment in history that was the easy way to do it though. Yeah there's irc and discord but all the people there are also the imageboard culture. So when I chat on discord I'm pretty much chatting with you faggots anyway.

Discord is proprietary garbage, but as smartphones have ruined tech literacy I guess it was inevitable that people would become too dumb to use IRC and XMPP--that has been around for decades and does the exact same shit as discord but is 100% under your control.

>>136389850
tinychat, kageshi, skype, steam and discord

you can still remain anonymous through most of these. Tinychat & kageshi are also cam chatrooms so its like watching the purest form of reality tv.
