>>/23385/ forgot to mention: /doomer/ has a modest interest in Gondolas, with a thread dedicated to them. /ausneets/ is where 'Strayan NEETs congregate and have small talk. Board aesthetic is the generic 8chan one. The only unique things are the banners. Moderation seems to be strict, judging by the pinned board rules, which include standards of conversation. Two of the rules are of interest: > 14. No posts which infer, either seriously or in jest, that the board is monitored by the Government or intelligence agencies, or which infer that any individual poster may be an agent of the government or an intelligence agency. These jokes are not funny and have a track record of stoking paranoia and chilling the free sharing of information on the board. > 16. All new NEET General Threads must contain an image which includes Pepe the Frog. This image must be visible from the Catalog. Non NEET General Threads may only be created after being suggested, considered and approved in the NEET General Thread. Non-approved Threads will be deleted. Precisely as rule 16 implies, all threads except the rules are NEET generals. The current one is #301, started today. The first was made in November 2018 and contains hints of its past: it's mentioned that the community was exiled from somewhere else and "Monk"/"warehouse" (probably a major namefag or BO; one of the other generals mentions him) got doxxed. Several other namefags are also mentioned or appear. Every single one of those threads starts with a Pepe image, proceeds to 700+ posts and gets locked, producing a stale and bland catalog. Userbase is 99,9% Australian but a single Brit appears in the latest general. I examined thread #301. Most posts are short, hardly going beyond a single line and few have images. Some of the images are photographs taken and posted onsite. Actual conversation i.e. chains of replies to other posts are short and rarely go beyond 10 replies. Topics include food, abos and NEET/wagie lifestyles. There's nothing deep or unusual about it: it's petty chatter and nothing more. It could be comparable to a pub because posters act like they're drunk, but a physical pub has longer interactions. A better comparison would be a group in a chatting app: posts are either some minor comment about life or a short, meaningless, low effort shitpost, and in either case other posters have very short interactions and then move along. Overall this board is harmless and irrelevant, with no interesting things.
