Can someone explain to me how 4chan which is in the news all the time linked to mass shooters, linked to Trump and 2016 election, link to misinformation, etc. is still up but kiwifarms is dropped by every company?

4chan is ephemeral. Kiwifarms documents and archives. One is clearly more dangerous.
4chan has had... quite a lot of platforming-related drama, too.
Apparently not enough for cloudflare to drop them.
They allegedly proactively report users to LEO. It's a kind of voluntary honeypot apparently?
