The Great Soyset refers to a still on-going event that started on 4chan's /qa/ board on 2021-11-03. During the event, the board was wiped clean of every non-meta thread, leaving 13 threads including the board sticky. This effectively removed most of the soyjaks posted on the board. Furthermore, it became impossible to post due to ongoing maintenance.
In the early stages, it was suggested that the The Great Soyset was carried out in response to a recent raid perpetrated against the /lgbt/ board.[1]
Roughly an hour after the event started, an IRC screenshot surfaced which allegedly showed a 4chan mod commenting on it.[2] According to this alleged mod, the event was likely carried out because /qa/ "sucked", suggesting that the board is about to be closed down for good. It remains unconfirmed whether this IRC user is actually a mod.
It's currently unknown whether the event is related to Operation Clean Stable.
