What happened to /b/?

This used to be the introductory board one had to pass through to learn how 4chan works before moving on. It actually had a culture behind it with regular trips, funny music you can't mute and reoccurring/new memes being produced weekly.

The board now is a wasteland full of porn that should be on /s/ or /gif/ and low quality bait from /pol/. Did the mods just stop caring ? The /b/ board is no longer random, it's actually not /b/ anymore than /tv/ is about actual film.
In some way, I would kind of like the old /b/ back, mainly for nostalgia but also because it was what the board was supposed to be about.

Do the mods just not care? Does Hiroshima not care?

Mods can't do anything if the old fag users all left. It isn't like you can police /b/ with rules defining what is random or not
>>
/b/ was diluted through the various other general off topic boards that were added through the years, especially things like /int/ /r9k/ /soc/ /lit/ etc
>>
became irrelevant, partially from >>1455408

/b/ never makes headlines anymore yet /pol/ does all the time, /r9k/ has elliot rodger etc
>>
>>1455407
I thought the reason the old users left was because quality shot down hill so fast and the mods never did anything to control it.

>>1455408
This explanation actually makes some sense. Maybe you're right
>>
exodus of users as the result of newer boards being opened or simply being forced off the board by the massive influx of new people and all forms of self-moderation being removed or banned, same story with all the other boards where original content creation has disappeared all but completely compared to how it was in the past.
but remember, sage is a downvote and that isn't allowed here anymore.
>>
The only way to save it now would be to completely change how it is dealt with, and that would make it, after all, not /b/.

Let /b/ rest in peace and let us not speak of these things again.

Thanks for the video. I forgot, but it made me happy to hear it again.
