      Ehh, everybody already hated it before but they hated it while using it.

      He made everybody hate it in a way that was different enough to actually kill it (slowly). It’s already the same as seeing a greentext to most people at this point.

          That’s a good point even the worst of the worst on 4chan would never in a million years pay for the service.

          People paying a monyhly fee for their internet dunce cap is keeping the service aflot, which shouldn’t be an effective business model but here we are.

            If it makes you feel any better, it’s not actually an effective business model and he’s still hemorrhaging money lol

            there were always tripcode users (basically verified users even though it wasn’t really verifiable) on 4chan, they posted the most cringe things and were hated by everyone, so pretty much the same as blue-checks. Q of Qanon fame was one of those.
