ITS HAPPENING. DUROV TO BUY Jow Forums!!!!

Fake news, and I'm not going to give you clicks to confirm.

Next time make it realistic. $4.6 M my ass.

>age of expressionism
No it's not!??

>"Pavel admits he has been frequent user of the website, and believes besides the deep web, hidden boards, Jow Forums is the last glimpse of what public internet should be. Random, unpredictable and most importantly, uncensored."

Yandex need monkeys to train deep neural networks, new capcha system.

Yandex we porn image search

>vatniks take over Jow Forums

>Mr. Durov stated that he sees himself as the leader of the new age of internet privacy.

I can actually get behind this, this dude is based af.

>He later added "Jow Forums is what you would call wildlands of the internet. It's accessible, usable and most importantly it is the face of the internet. And we must protect that"

BASED.

High impact shitposting

>Mr. Durov said there would be free russian gfs provided for all users who wanted them.
what luck!

wtf i love russians now

You'd be surprised

Fine by me provided he moves Jow Forums servers to a service that doesn't suck absolute dick like it does currently. And change up the boards! 20MB file size limit WebM's on /gif/ and /wsg/. Drop all file sizes on non video boards to 500KB or less barring /w/, /wg/, and /hq/. There's no need for a smug anime reaction image to be fucking 2MB.

>he says while posting a low resolution and quality jpg at 234KB

>no reputable source, just a literal who .ru site
>no announcement on the fucking site being sold (the one we're browsing rn fyi)
>all of these serious replies
Jow Forums is now on the same level as facebook boomers who believe every post they see

What's your fucking point to this? He says to reduce the filesizes on other boards. Are you fucking illiterate, his image is under the 500kb he even suggested

based and librepilled

i would love to see all those stupid cunts who post desktop screenshots as 3MB .pngs unable to do so ever again, inb4 "your bandwidth must be shit, third worlder!" my bandwidth is fine, unlimited data, it's the principle

I don't believe it.

Hiro bought it for 2 million from moot

nice fucking cashout from hiro when he sells for 4.6 million kek

yea that's the point. Hell make vp9 codec a thing. A still image of a webM is multitudes smaller than even a shitty JPG.

I hope we get t b h back desu

Use farbfeld. The only sane format. Leave compression for compressing tools.

basically

Vkontakte, yes

FUCKING DO IT BASED RUSKIE
SAVE US FROM HIROSHIMA I DON'T GIVE A FUCK IF YOU SELL OUR DATA TO YANDEX OR NOT

I'll use lossless compression all I want you little bitch

>3MB desktop screenshots
What's worse is when people show blurry as fuck/out of focus/just bad overall pictures of their desks, guts, etc. Force people to learn how to compress/crop their shit.
jokes aside, it sort of is. I can't think of a single other place where you can share opinions, regardless of how stupid they are, unabashed by others. I'm not talking about posting nigger this and kikes that. Just true opinions that aren't linked to some sort of username.'

If Jow Forums were to bang up tomorrow, I'd be hard pressed to find anything remotely similar (other chans that move at a snails pace not withstanding)

Voat and Gab, but they're format sucks a fat one and registration and voting systems are a no go for me

Now we can truly be russian bots

>Trolls from the Russian owned site Jow Forums tried to influence the election with propaganda masked as memes
I am already seeing the headlines

People think Jow Forums is the last bastion of free speech because I can openly hate niggers and women on it.

>Jow Forums escaping the FBI
>Right into the loving hands of the FSB

That's not even that much money

Unironically based

Anything but here desu.
This dude seems to be doing it for some ideological reason too. Hard to believe but might as well be.
I for one, welcome our new Russian overlords.

Dude is apparently a fucking psychopath these days

talking shit online is not worth _any_ money dumbass

How long until Putin nationalizes it?

>(other chans that move at a snails pace not withstanding)
Are you really too retarded to imagine that if Jow Forums dies those other chans will grow?

I would have preferred notch

We aren’t going to be under Russian law jurisdiction will we? Because right now, we’re under American law jurisdiction because of Moot. If Duroc buys us and moves our shit to Russia, that won’t be good. I know they’re saying “servers off the coasts” and all that, but it’s insane and retarded to run internet servers under maritime ownership just because of the shit that can go wrong. He wants to move the servers, meaning no more American rules, but maritime rules would be too retarded of a risk. If we go Russian though...
We’d be looking at anything near Loli and anything Homosexual getting completely banned if not literally criminalised. I’m no dick sucking faggot myself, but that would kill this website pretty fast.

of course if Jow Forums dies everyone is moving over to facebook

Link seems to be dead.

Only good if he abolishes jewgle captchas

I'm starting to believe the lefty narrative about Russian influence..

Attached: 1536584928593.jpg (706x706, 42K)

Telegram is blocking in Russia for flee from Russians jurisdiction.

That’s a good thing though if you are American Putin may collect as much data as he wants on you from here but because the relations between the US and Russia are so bad they wont share any intelligence information.

I don't think he lives in Russia anymore because he refused to put a back door into telegram for the Russian government and now he is wanted for treason or some shit so he moved out of country. If think they labeled him as a terrorist and banned telegram in Russia

>I DON'T GIVE A FUCK IF YOU SELL OUR DATA TO YANDEX
Dumb cuck

>I’m no dick sucking faggot myself, but that would kill this website pretty fast.
Banning all the faggots would be great.

You faggot sympathizer.

same

Notice how the photo looks like something out of a movie.

Doesn't that strike you as strange Jow Forums?

It's almost as if someone is trying to manipulate your mind.

Maybe there are other forces behind this.

Hiromoot just bought Jow Forums to make money, this Rusky will probably be a better owner.

CIA niggers wants a word with you

I hate to use the phrase, but they managed to use meme magic to turn Jow Forums into the Russian hackers at last.

>voat and gab
>ripping off the pig disgusting interface from reddit and twatter
I literally never had an account on plebbit, not because of SJWs but because the layout is so retarded it makes my eyes bleed

in imaginary currency since it was bought by conde nast a while ago and now it's just a shilling ground for retards

Good. Hopefully Jow Forums gets banned from Europe and the US.

Of course there is a russian influence, as a italian, greek,EU etc..
Everyone have an agenda, and if its legal to do, they will do.
But painting the russians as the sole responsible force for the election instead of just admitting they fucked up is quite ludicrous.

he cute

lets start with you

I would if I win the lottery. Would pay up to 25 millions if I have too
This is my second home

Why are people on Jow Forums so stupid and fall for fake news? Please contain your stupidity to this board.

OP pic is obviously photoshopped, cause the link doesn't exist.
That being said, it's an interesting thought experiment - who actually is qualified to admin Jow Forums?

The only two people who reigned/reigns here are people who are actually intimately familiar with the board software and have actually written large swathes of it, and have had a decade of experience in managing the needs and understanding the dynamics of an imageboard community.
On top of all that, tactical devops knowledged - remember - moot weathered through web hosts denying service because of loli, and Jow Forums.net being squatted on,

Who could be qualified, if that's the bar set?

$4 million for a site that's in the top 1000 worldwide is still pretty good.
>b-but Jow Forums isn't profitable!
neither it youtube, that's not the point.

I wish it was real. Such a bad shitpost

>implying i wouldn't VPN in from logar province afghanistan.

If it was legit, Hiro would probably keep it under wraps until the deal was finalized

I don't think this article is real or true

But if it is, this guy at least has the right mindset in regards to Jow Forums.

>Jow Forumsaylords are actually falling for this obvious fake article
This place is fucking dead.

traps will finally be declared gay on Jow Forums.

He got kicked the fuck out of Russia because he refused to dox protesters when the FSB asked him and he's now a citizen of some island in the Caribbean. So safe to say it won't be hosted in Russia.

4.6m sounds so fucking cheap.
We've became so desensitized to newsworthy tech deals always in the tunes of billions, then there's this shithole that happens to be relevant to me - and us -- turns out to be even worse than I ever expected.

Absolutely patrician
