Not sure how relevant this question is Jow Forums, but...
does anyone know an alternative to Jow Forums and Reddit? Everyone is super contrary and negative all the time. I'm just trying to find where the comfy vibes are.
Is there truly no autism free part of the internet where people freely trade images and talk about life and such? Jow Forums is really vulgar, Reddit is stuck up their own asshole, Tumblr is full of Gen Z, cringy fanbases and "liberals" who don't actually know what they are talking about.
look at pic related and tell me you don't belong here

If I knew I wouldn't be here.
Try offline friends.

Discord perhaps, you'll just have to find servers which match the atmosphere you're describing.
Carter Rivera
Agree with discord. Its all about finding likeminded people. You can also form pretty good communities on twitter, tumblr, or p much any social media, you just have to build up that community
Caleb Martin
>"liberals" who don't actually know what they are talking about.
If you're getting upset at liberals on the internet, sounds like shitty 2019 neo-Jow Forums is right up your alley actually.
and also you're using the internet as a replacement for real-life friends and social interaction. Step away from the computer if you want to talk about life with someone.
>comfy Cancerous word used by human trash on this website. >vibes Cancerous trash said by normalfags everywhere else.
Congratulations, you’re a fucking faggot of both worlds.

Yeah, I belong to one discord server that's really chill, but it's not very active. Most of them that I have found are really cool with racist memes and 12 year olds constantly spam about how they have depression and how I'm a faggot or whatever.
I'm trying to get away from the pron on Jow Forums, and also the racism, and also people saynig "cuck" and "autism" and stuff so often, because that shit is getting in my head and actually making it difficult to socialize because I'm thinking that stuff all the time.
But I also want to share images that I think are cool that have a paticular vibe that I really like. My favorite board on Jow Forums is /wg/ but even then there are the ads and fascism.
Shit like this is what I'm talking about. You literally can't say shit without psychopaths like this taking 2 unrelated things about your post and making it the main point. This is the kind of shit I'm trying to avoid. Reddit also does this constantly.
Post something, anything, and a mob of people will focus on something that is entirely not the point and insist that it is.

haha wow look at this cool 2016 oldfag who's here to tell us what Jow Forums is really like

okay sweetie. Just dont scream okay? Yes feminism yes blacks. Good. No one is trying to turn this thread into Jow Forums okay?

>Reddit also does this constantly.
Do you not know how reddit works? You choose your own boards. I don't even know what the default subreddits are anymore, but you should unsubscribe from literally all of them if you want a pleasant experience.
You really have to look through all the subreddits to find the ones that have an active population but also are relatively small enough and obvious are a topic that you're interested in,
Obviously if you look at r/all or default boards like r/worldnews or whatever it's going to be filled with screaming retards. Even like r/videos is full of politics and shit.
Not saying that reddit is flawless, people do post shit for Karma that's like MY AUTISTIC BROTHER DIED IN A TRANSGENDER WASHROOM PROTEST, THIS WAS HIS SOUNDCLOUD ACCOUNT PLEASE CHECK OUT MY I MEAN HIS MIXTAPE but again that's really only the default ones.
Jaxon Morris
oh whoops thanks for proving my point
Adam Rodriguez
glad that you are so deluded to think that this proved anything. Now fuck off.
Lucas Smith
sorry didn't mean to upset you any further with the use of the l-word
Aiden Howard
okay
Liam Walker
I don’t pretend to be anything but the newfag I am, but I’ve been posting on this website for over 11 years, and was already over 18 when I started. You are nothing to me but dust in the wind.

r/gaming is really bad too, like the top posts are like "hey look at what we got for Christmas! :)" and then it's a picture of a fucked up retard kid stuck in a wheelchair with like 7 oxygen tanks but also he has a Nintendo Switch on his lap so that gets a million upvotes and 15 times Reddit Gold on r/gaming. Redditors love to exploit their crippled retard kids for aimaginary internet points.
but like I said, that's the default subs. If you want to talk games you can find entire boards dedicated to just one game. it's like that for anything.
Jackson Garcia
>but I’ve been posting on this website for over 11 years, and was already over 18 when I started
So why do you type like a 15 year old from r9k who joined last week?
Levi Powell
Discord has millions of servers by now, I'm sure you can find something if you look some up through The Portal or similar discord advertising sites/servers.
Also, the problem is you and not Jow Forums. If you cannot separate what you say/do online from how you think/interact irl that just means that you're not only missing the point of the annonimaty of the internet as a whole but as well as the point of the culture surrounding Jow Forums. If you can not establish separate personas depending on where or with whom you're interacting then you're just being tone deaf, and in my opinion, ultimately more disingenuous towards yourself and others. I am not just who I am when I talk with strangers and acquaintances, I am a combination of personas which might sometimes seem to act antithetically towards each other whilst all remaing in accordance with my own set of values. If you can't operate under these rules and unironically let things you don't believe in affect your actions then you don't believe in your own values that much to begin with.
That kind of thing makes me actually enranged. It makes me sick. I don't really care about karma whoring, but also how does it help the world for me to upvote someone just because they lost their leg or whatever.
I mean if I lost my leg, that would suck. Why the fuck would my first thought be "better post this to reddit"
and the subreddits for specific games are where you need to go
Xavier Evans
Oh boy that's a lot of assumptions.
It's not necessary to develop multiple personas. There is a different way that I interact online from how I act in person, but my values don't shift.
Jose Morales
As someone who's gotten some decent number on his post, I can tell you it's addictive a bit.
You get a little hit of dopamine every time you refresh and see your karma count went up.
Andrew Perry
>autism free Right, because you definitely are part of the good people and not the assholes. Like it or not, you're here forever.
Adrian Jenkins
Socialization. Getting encouragement and support from others.
Elijah Adams
>the shitposting is getting to me >my values don't change The problem is that it gets to you to begin with, removing the shitposting from the equation doesn't actually solve the problem. Deal with this instead of putting a band-aid on it and perhaps try to make a more balanced use of such platforms.
Matthew Barnes
idk what the fuck you're talking about. I just wanna hang out in a place not filled to the brim with people either on the verge of a mental breakdown or constantly trying to brainwash me. It's just getting old.
Owen Smith
same
Colton Watson
I like Quora personally.
You can be anonymous if you want and most of the people on it aren't complete autists. I still come to Jow Forums though.
Nolan Martinez
You sound so socially inept, im getting 2nd hand embarrassment from reading your post
