Does anyone else find there to be too many idol threads on this board?
I'm not against idol, far from it, actually. I'm probably as much of a fan as anyone else here, and have been for many years. With this said, though, I feel that with the volume of them (probably around 50% of threads on /jp/ or more, I would guess)that the interest is high enough that, especially combined with what gets posted on gn, it could justify having it's own board.
I guess I just feel like it kind of detracts from a wider variety of topics that the board could have. Do idols count as otaku culture? Definitely. Does that mean I think it should be half the board? Probably not.
While it's true that it would probably be considered a niche board, if it's this popular I don't see why that means it shouldn't be able to have one. 4chan has other boards that are niche as well, and it might help to consolidate more specific kinds of posting in particular places.

Wouldn't it be better if idol had its own containment board, something like hima which keeps spinoff boards from being 50% vtuber spam about foids? That's literally what /jp/ has been for a decade. An unofficial idol board where half the threads are idol-specific shit, often pretty pointless. Idolshit is out of control here.
Again, I like idols as much as anyone, but this is a bit ridiculous. Why not make an idol thread and post there, instead of spamming the board? I get imagedump threads about your waifu or whatever, but it gets out of hand when half the threads on /jp/ are about obscure idol shit.
Why do idol fans get away with this? If people kept making meaningless threads about their favorite seiyuu, the onahole they just bought, some obscure vn waifu, several Furude Rika threads, etc, they would all get deleted and considered spam. Why does everyone have to stay inside their general except idol fans? Is it some unspoken rule or what?
