It was a lot saltier then but maybe I just thought so because when I first found this site I was a sensitive 19 year old PULL user, I never liked troons so the talking shit about troons didn’t bother me but the manhating kinda caught me off guard. I’ve just never seen it so unfiltered and without the “ackshually not all men!” replies so it was weird to me. Im glad the site is still like that for a short while, there were some anons who would ask you to chill out on speeding about men or troons, but this is the only site where you can do it without worrying about being doxxed or threatened. When I found this site the pink pill and gender critical threads were in /ot/ it kinda made me feel like I just like uncovered a whole bunch of secrets, I feel regarded saying this but I was mostly oblivious to men and their atrocities. I was sort of a handmaiden in those days and this site opened my eyes.
So I might not be an actual old fag, I found this site in 2019, but a lot has still changed. Farmers threw the n word with the er at the end around, no drawing board or movie nights then, I was on the discord. Some users recommended shota mangas. There was the girl who kept talking about how she liked. Nazis on there. I think there were more edgy users or they matured a bit. I’ve said it before but I get the feeling custardloaf and shoeonhead types hang out on here. It’s weird because we diss pickmes so much but they definitely sit on here a lot, they let their retardation spill out.
It’s gotten a lot more cozy feeling, nona, nonny and anon nicknames are used more often. The drawing room and movie nights feel so chill, even the banners are cutesier, and someone was complaining about it the other day but they said they’ve noticed more tumblry posts and it makes sense. I can’t put my finger on it, it’s just theater kid humoresque quips in posts. “Bloop” energy.

>>1817960>>1817963>>1817964i hate people who brags about being farmers on social media. I guess it makes them feel edgy and taboo. I used to lurk on lolcow, PULL and e-celeb snark tumblr blogs when i was underaged but it wasn't something I discussed with other people. Many of my friends used 4chan which I only found out years later lol. It's not that we where ashamed of using these sites it's just that edgy gossip sites and imageboards aren't brag worthy. No one is going to think you are more interesting or edgy if you are a farmer.
Modern internet is also stupid and attentionwhoring. What compels someone to attach their face to every statement they make? Specially now where your boss and social group will comb trough your social media. People who read trashy gossip magazines in the 00-10s never attentionwhored like this.
>>1817968Its not a lolcow specific issue but I miss the stupid "kawaii motherfucker" 2013 internet humor. It was stupid but it was self aware without being obnoxious. Internet humor got really shitty when kpop and drag became mainstream.
Now you either need to take an ironic distance to everything or take everything super seriously. So you are left with people who are desperately trying to appear smug/sassy and celebrity worshippers. And then we have people who think everything is
problematic or an personal attack.
Weeb spaces have just become constant coomer jokes. The coom jokes where always there but there used to be the occasional desu joke or burando joke. I know its a dumb thing to feel nostalgia over but i just wanna laugh at weebs, otaku culture and jfashion for being cringey without having to use the word asianfishing.

>>1818185Adding to this, a lot of farmers realized they have cow tendencies as well. Anons used to be way more paranoid of becoming cows, it was a huge deal. Once everyone started opening up about their issues, things became less mean. Now we know half the userbase are autistic neets with severe trauma or bpd and it makes so much sense. Wanting to be mean on purpose back then like everyone else was a way to mask it I guess. I myself still gravitate to pixielocks because she reminds me of myself, I know I'm not as bad now, but I know plenty of anons gravitate towards cows that are similar to their own situations.
Unrelated but today I had a dream that farmhands banned me because I said "Imagine not having a job" and the red text was like "but you have no job you autistic NEET bitch" kek. I will always love creative redtexts.

>>1818038I miss cosplay drama so much, anons autistically ripping apart a bitchy dunning-kruger cosplayer's work is like drinking fine wine. It's both satisfying and educational, I learned by taking notes from people doing it. It was so much more interesting and above all intelligent to read anons raging about Momokun's awful costume construction than gawking at her vulva shape or calling her fat again and again like people don't have eyes on them. Yeah she said she's "above porn" which is why it's ironic she's doing it now but that was like 6 years ago, the horse is already buried.
I feel like this happened to a lot of threads about cows in the creative field, it went from anons pointing out all the incompetency and reasonable criticism into just sperging about the cow's looks, ideologies and personal feelings because the userbase went from a nerdy women into radblr refugees and later on tiktok zoomers who lack the attentiveness and passion for developing an actual skill. Most threads are now just racebait, tranny sperging and "look at that bitch eating crackers" style nitpicking.
But to reminiscence a bit, I think one of my most satisfying lolcow moments were when Swimsuitsuccubus and her fake girlfriend were outed for faking their lesbian relationship for clout (I think either one of them was dating a moid at the same time?) and having been vendettaposting in Momokun's thread. I called it years before the truth was leaked because they were never the least bit subtle about it.

All the cosplay cows were completely blind to their own skill level and considered themselves to be more apt than they actually were, which reflected in their personality. Momokun's initial appeal was her aloof personality and cosplays that were horribly constructed yet she bitched about not winning contests to the point she had a vendetta against one of the judges.

ive been here since 2015/2016 with some long breaks in between and, not surprisingly, the site just isn't the same anymore. but the internet has changed. i miss the time when politics didn't infest everything, onlysimps and tiktok didn't exist, and we were more or less still a secret. according to this thread there's less nitpick now but i can't confirm that since im an ot and g lurker now.
all my beloved cows are gone or have dead threads but that's ok because ive grown out of cow culture for the most part. modern cows seem so boring or completely unhinged to the point i can't stomach them. at least you don't see anons saying Greg's scrotey neanderthal face is attractive anymore or acting jealous because Venus got a Japanese bf so that's a positive.

I remember when Onision's threads would get filled up within days. I don't remember exact year I found lolcow, but it was in the middle of the cows heat. So much shit happening, so many active threads with fat archives to read up. Luna Slater, Onion, Shayna, Venus all read from the beginning, every thread so fast-moving because there was constant drama and gossip; even though I can relate to anons saying they outgrew the cow culture - I kinda miss it. As an unemployed NEET student back then, this place was a perfect place on the Internet for me. I loved how angry and aggressive anons were, crass, self-confident, protective of this little girl-place. It was very refreshing to see women on the web from this other, less cutesy side. Constant battles with kiwi, PULL, no tolerance for twitterfags. Cows self-posting, Kiki's post history revealed - chef's kiss.

I discovered lolcow and crystal cafe about at the same time in the summer of 2015. I wasn't interested in cow culture back then, and only browsed the off topic and hobby boards. I remember leaving because of the lack of a video game board, and going back to /v/ eventually. I was laso disappointed by the fact that all the topics were geared towards stereotypical female affairs (gossipic, beauty, "girls games", etc).
Now you have more videogames threads and not stereotypically feminine interests discussions in general, which is nice, imo.
I got into cow culture via scrote retards like ethan ralph and varg later on, but I must say that I feel like moidfarms and cancel culture killed cow culture. In fact, I feel like you can appreciate cows only when they haven't been discovered yet by farm websites, especially kf and their retarded obsession with doxxing. Now whenever a cow gets a thread here they go into hiding, because they're afraid of being harassed, stalked or even attacked irl. It happened to empath-chan for instance, even tho i can't say that i feel really bad for her. But still, even if she says heinous stuff, it's just an attention-seeking retard rambling retarded shit on the internet. And for the more light-hearted cows, they're afraid of losing their job or irl friends if they get a thread. I think cancel culture definitely played a role into the death of cow culture. Saying stupid shit online, when attached to your real identity, can hinder your life forever now, if not outright ruining it. So that's why doxxing is such a problem now. It's because normies are on the internet.
So yeah, now my favourite cows are found on random 4chan boards or discord servers, and even if I vicariously follow their antics for entertainment, I would NEVER create them a thread on a cow website. Even here.
I just wish we could have our own internet free of normies where we could laugh at cows again.

Been here since 2015/2016. I think I found this place trying to find out more about the Onision/Billie drama going on at the time. My all time favorite threads and the only ones I go back and read sometimes were the ones about Nemu. Interesting art horrorcows seem to be surprisingly rare. I used the site most frequently around 2017 or so when the men hating threads were getting attention. It really opened my eyes and was the only place online I was seeing people talk about how horrible moids are. I honestly miss those threads and how /2X/ is just hidden and dead overall now. But I understand the decision based on how many loser moids would raid the board bc they were mad that there was any place at all that would talk badly about them. It's really a gross thing to realize. It's difficult to have one place open to criticizing and hating men but there's so many misogynistic forms of discussion allowed to exist on the internet (and many moids even profit from it). I stopped using this site around 2020-2021 when my life was at it's lowest and I was extremely ill, but came back around 2022 or so. I do wish it was more active overall. I find the normie man-loving, "my lovely nigel husband" posting on /ot/ to be weird sometimes bc that just seems like something youd go to regular social media for and not a miserable imageboard. The most horrifying thing ive seen on here so far is that one nonna that admitted to regularly eating her husband's ass in /ot/ I think. I wish to never see posts like that ever again.

Annoying sure but as long as they're not derailing child free threads then there's nothing wrong with them. I don't think these things are sign of maturity or getting your shit together but they're part of the human experience for a lot of women and wanting to push them away because you want a chan that can only have neets and shchizos is nonsensical.

Those true maladjusted women, unlike you, are actually suffering from the expectations of being born a woman. They are virgins in their 30s and arent interested in dating 3DPD, they have extremely weird autistic coping mechanisms like having anime boy boyfriends, buying fucking reborns to larp as their anime boyfriend human hybrid spawns, some like kirbychan know they have an extremely hard time relating to people and their coping mechanisms are harmful, but they dont have anything else.

I was called a normie on a thread on this board the other day and it made me smile because the goal wasn’t to be a retarded weeb forever and I succeeded. Of course “normies” are going to find the boards too, we have the indie cow, red scare/dimes square, and any other former tumblr girls (like Tuna). Even tho I’m not a weeb anymore and it’s been 8 years since I’ve been to a con, I still like looking at the Lolita threads and going into /w/ every once in a while.
I’ve been following Tuna for over a decade, and I miss the threads abt similar people— Bree McGee, and the tumblrcow thread. I first got on the site when Sunny/Yaya/Embryoe has a thread made allegedly by spacepixie on tumblr, I remember them getting into beef and Embryoe accusing spacepixie of incest??? And stayed because all the criticism of Sunny was spot-on. Reading /ot/ before the hidden board was created peaked me and I’m now an active radfem, like on podcasts, in a band, going to womyn’s festivals etc. Looking at threads from 7 years ago when I first started posting is really wild, the board culture and terminology used was really different.

I've been on lolcow since 2014/2015, and the changes over time have been a mixed bag in my opinion.
Things I miss:
>far more explosive happenings (e.g. Onision saga, Venus escaping Marge, Phoebe being herself, Nika and Jaelle though the latter happened while cows were becoming more boring)
>the site generally rallying around a few of the best cows and keeping their threads really active
>more super-niche hobby/scene/lifestyle threads and fewer social media-based cows
>more cows that were memorable, e.g. had years-long lore, were the queen bees of whatever dumb scene they occupied
>less politics/social issues; now it seems like most of the active cow threads are related to a political scene or social issue, which is a shame because the politicization of the internet is a huge part of why it's turned to shit
>late zoomers/gen alpha were too young to find their way here
>generally more interesting things to read and less slice-of-life content
Things I like better:
>much stronger community feel and cozier atmosphere
>non-cow boards are thriving
>more diverse non-cow topics
>generally more supportive environment, despite the fact that half this thread was derailed by someone who can't accept that people's lives change even when their interests don't
>far less insane nitpicking, jealousyposting, and edgelordery
>the bar is higher for cow threads (though vendetta/jealousy threads were my guilty pleasure)
>some of the metadrama has been great these past few years
>fewer scrotes
>(finally) competent admin and farmhands
Things I'm ambivalent about:
>deemphasis of cow boards (the cows have gotten less interesting but how much of that is a function of people using the boards less?)
>farmhands are trigger-happy (a necessary evil but maybe a little too strict at the moment)

Back then it was understandable to think someone severely dysphoric might benefit from transitioning because the big exposés about how the suicide rates go up weren't as well known around here (if the research was out then but I think one study was). If you look at the old tif threads you can see it mostly was filled with tifs mocking other tifs not realising they were the same for different reasons at best. The site had a collective peaking a little while back helped by the fact that male troons were always seen as fucked up since agps and fetishists overcame the hsts pretty early on the internet so those threads were always active and finding more stuff. I think the whole JK Rowling situation also caused an intense peaking of the site because everyone could read her words and see how fucked everything got.
Back then a common thing you'd see against taylor was that she wasn't trutrans, now we see it all as a joke but back then was different. I think a few other cows were mocked for trans "grifting" back then kek. Ironic cause now kikomis get more respect for grifting off of those idiots

Been here a decade, but into internet culture since Encyclopedia Dramatica and DeviantArt drama days.
The culture has definitely changed. Seems like people either are more censored of themselves now, or you have tiktok celebs who will say the most unhinged thing and it's accepted, tolerated and even viral for being funny.
There was just a weird, authentic, niche vibe to old lolcows. Maybe it's the product of "everyone being on the internet now". Pretty much everyone has SM, everyone has TikTok. People have also been "canceled" so much that it's meaningless, while truly egregious things like saying the n-word or manhate on social is so taboo that no one does it. I think there was just a special something about lolcows that made them so facinating. They had just little enough social awareness, but just nerdy enough to be interesting. Now it seems like people are more aware of cringe or more tolerant of it, so the flavor is less niche and authentic, and it's boring now.

Anyone else feels like current anons have poor reading comprehension and are snappy and eager to start fights? Not that LC was ever a ~peaceful~ website and admittedly nitpicking has improved, but there's so much infighting going on. Anon A could just try to re-read anon B's innocent post before making an angry, retarded reply. Maybe I'm naive thinking they just need to learn how to read and that they're not being dicks on purpose, but it's so tiring now. It's like walking on eggshells.
>>1938892>There was just a weird, authentic, niche vibe to old lolcows. Maybe it's the product of "everyone being on the internet now". Pretty much everyone has SM, everyone has TikTok. The internet as a whole was much better before when it was for nerds, weebs and losers and normies/corporations weren't on it en masse. It has gradually lost its appeal because of that. Almost nothing is really niche anymore because zoomers believe in aesthetics only. They are chameleons, always changing their looks superficially, and have little interest in subcultures、or getting to know things at a deeper level before partaking in it. Also people were more inclined to overshare in an authentic way in the 00's and mid 10's (not trying to become internet famous due to cringe). Those times are long gone.

I remember when LC was severely broken to the point where you could only use one of the boards and we spammed some kpoop junglebook type boy making puppy faces while scrotes found the opportunity to start spamming and shit and the jannies are scrambling to keep things in order and it devolved into one glorious massive flame war infighting festival that would rival any kind of gay conversations that done on here now. Then right after that, I think it was announced that the website was gonna shut down because the admin was probably getting cancer-causing stress from running this shitty website and a bunch of wealthy anons donated money. I think it was also revealed the old admin was some cute brown chick that the lesbianons were thirsting after, or maybe that was a hoax?

Whenever I revisit old internet drama from around the 00's it's basically two retards fighting and everyone else autistically observing and documenting the events that took place while having a big laugh over it, now it's basically a mass cancellation every other week going from 0 to 100 in a microsecond. If Pixyteri existed today in her 2010 form, instead of being relentlessly clowned on and being made fun of, people would write 50-part twitter threads on how she's a
problematic racist white pedophile bitch appropriating and colonizing nipponese culture and sexualizing little children. Arguably it's true if you lay it out that way, but the magnitude of such accusations falls flat when you actually look into the mundane dweeb shit she actually DID do. Also it doesn't help that past the 2016 elections the political field has been so highly polarized that altright /pol/ faggots prey on those disgraced people like a cult, which is why you see people post-cancellation slowly slip into that mindset.

Anon A could just try to re-read anon B's innocent post before making an angry, retarded reply. Yes, and multiple anons have complained about it over the last year or so. It started making sense once some farmers said that they've seen self-identified "
femcels" on Tiktok bragging about being addicted to Lolcow, but I also feel like we have underage ESL-chans coming in at their wake who just genuinely don't speak English well enough to understand the nuance in anons' posts and pick a fight over their own misinterpretation as the spergposts they drop read like machine translations. I feel for them because I'm ESL myself, but at least I was an adult when I first posted on Lolcow.

>>1996323I would rather have cancellations and cringe threads on twitter instead of whatever happened to pt. People literally pretended to be friends with her only to backstab her and make fun of her later, not to mention her leaked nudes. At least zoomer moralfags wouldn't do it. Why are you caping for 00's edgy shitheads? Cow culture back then was literally high school garbage, ie dumb jocks/blondes making fun of mostly harmless people who are just weird. At least rn we shit on actual trash.
Also unpopular opinion but pt cosplays were unironically great, like true soul. I've always liked them tbh.
