look at this list I made
http://pastebin.com/HNp6NuSA
I put "*" next to the sites that I wanted to highlight

So many Russian and Fetish chans. What could possibly be going on in here?
Ah well, time for prodding around.
4chan:
Why does this focus so much on /b/? Its not the only board on the website.
7chan:"Its full of new people"
Actually its just dead now. When was the last time this description was updated?
8ch:
I don't really understand this part about non-sequiturs and meme culture. Sounds hypocritical, actually.
Doushio:
Why did you star this?
I mean, its a self contained website. If they want to use a trip and forget the anonymity part, that's fine. Still, why did you star this?
Lainchan:
While I disagree with spamming the website link, they actually bought ads on 4chan. The ads then got taken down by moot, who seems to have a unhealthy obsession with having the biggest imageboard at this point.
And his new administration seems to share that trait, too.
Also, weren't you meant to write /g/ instead of /tech/?
Masterchan:
"When I initially saw the site, I mistook it for a honeypot, if that gives you any impression of what the site is like"
It likely is an actual honeypot, mate.
People claim to come form that website sometimes and they even have some culture of their own, but even considering that it smells too much like honeypot.
Plus4chan:
Note the heavy /co/ leanings, this is another chan like lainchan and operatorchan.
Okay I'm getting to the bottom of this mess. Now the textboard section remains-- I'll check it later.
I have a small question for the thread OP. Did you remove the websites you liked? You mostly attack imageboards on their descriptions, but you did say that you liked some of them and regretted linking to them.
>Why does this focus so much on /b/? Its not the only board on the website.
you ought to all ready know what on 4chan is important. /b/ is what 4chan is largely known for.
>Doushio:
>Why did you star this?
The script it employs is rather interesting. It records you typing your post live, and I think that makes the site very compelling and attractive
>Plus4chan:
>Note the heavy /co/ leanings, this is another chan like lainchan and operatorchan.
noted
>Did you remove the websites you liked? You mostly attack imageboards on their descriptions, but you did say that you liked some of them and regretted linking to them.
I put every site I knew down, where any dipshit Indonesian poker wonko spammers can send each and every board all sorts of shit, and I will not take the list down until all of you pay me a bribe.
By the way, the reason I used pastebin is because I figured you guys are probably more comfortable with that, but here's a link to the paper on Google Docs, which is slightly easier to read:
https://waa.ai/vs1d
>you ought to all ready know what on 4chan is important.
>/b/ is what 4chan is largely known for
Those aren't linked to eachother.
/b/ has been largely useless to the spread of culture that 4chan is popular for. They're put on the top of every media hitpiece because they're bad at researching before unleashing more hitpieces.
whatever, nerd
>>7
Right back at you, otaku.
geez
get a room, you two
Also, RIP:
Tripchan
SAoVQ(For all we know)
>>9
We're fine, thank you.
Very nice write-up! I've got a couple of comments, questions and suggestions:
Chlomochan.org is an imageboard with some very dedicated Chloe Grace Moretz fans. The design is pretty interesting.
Plus4chan is notable for the large amount of cartoon porn creators it attracts.
Shana-chan's /m/ has something interesting remnants of the culture Soviet Russia's board had.
Lilyphilia is a fanboard for the movie All About Lily Chou-Chou.
Why would you say Post Office is one of the most popular textboards on the web? We barely get any posts and it doesn't seem to be that well known.
Emanon Textboard is just some temporary testing grounds that will vanish when the software is released. That will probably happen sometime next week, when the documentation and CSS are finished.
>>4
Masterchan was taken down by the Dutch Police earlier this year; if it wasn't a honeypot before that, it surely is now.
>>10
It would be interesting to have write-ups on noteworthy dead boards. Hello Channel springs to mind.
Bienvenido a Internet (not Bienvenido) seems to be like a mix of SAoVQ and old /jp/.
They also seem to have their own /z/-like board: http://www.bienvenidoainternet.org/0/
Pretty surprising to see something like that from a Spanish-speaking community.
>>11
Sorry, that's actually chlomo.org.
You're also missing wizchan.org, which is entirely dedicated to a side character from the Seinfeld episode "The Junk Mail".
All right. I've modified the document accordingly. Thanks for the suggestions, you guys. Note that I cannot update the pastebin, so you'll have to look on the Google Docs page to see the changes.
>It would be interesting to have write-ups on noteworthy dead boards. Hello Channel springs to mind.
I've thought of doing that, but I'm afraid the Wayback isn't very reliable, so there's no guarantee that I'll be giving a thorough evaluation, and the sites tend to be too obscure for me to find discussion of in the archive. Furthermore, I made the mistake of discarding many of the links to dead imageboards, which is really unfortunate. What a missed opportunity.
My recall is also not very good. I've heard of Hello Channel before, and I'm sure I've visited the site, but I couldn't say a thing about it.
>>12
>Pretty surprising to see something like that from a Spanish-speaking community
I have to agree with you. I find that the average Spanish-speaking forums tend to be more ambitious than the average American forum, in some respects.
>>13
>You're also missing wizchan.org, which is entirely dedicated to a side character from the Seinfeld episode "The Junk Mail"
This doesn't seem to be the case. Are you sure you're giving me the right site?
>Google Docs page
...Where?
Why did you call fufufu a /jp/ spin off? It's an /a/ board, not /jp/; and you also said there are "way too many boards" when there's only one?
You're also missing a few tiny altChans, but neither of them have many users so it's probably not worth telling you about. I don't know that their users would want me to either.
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1t10VI-sccy1CfAeMZHwmCS_7agIHFo_B5ipMjzsMtTg/edit
I shouldn't have used that link shortener.
>you also said there are "way too many boards" when there's only one
I probably had a different forum in mind. I've fixed it.
By the way, I'd love to hear about those altChans, whatever an altChan may be.
>their users would want me to either
Nothing is sacred in the information age. Come on! Share!
>>14
I was just kidding about the wiz. Also, in my shanachan remark, I was referring to Soviet Russia the person, not the republic.
Hey, I happened to find you again.
I've been browsing though most of the boards since you posted the list a couple days ago.
I was thinking of further organizing them by activity somewhat. The English ones at least.
Descriptions are too biased in favor of someone who hails from /jp/, if I may be so honest. Ah, well, you can only hate what is inside yourself after all. Thanks for compiling this. I enjoyed the textboard section greatly since it's so hard to find information about it unless I diligently lurk in a lot of places which I don't have the patience for anymore these days.
Krazykimchi is dead.
>>12
There's something heartwarming about seeing 2ch culture spreading to other languages besides English.
You forgot latchan, baltchan and 370chan.
you forgot wizardchan. it's a pretty big chan
>>17
Samachan.org and Hikkichan.com are two you're missing
I've added the sites.
The links would have been better if you'd given them to me before all those retarded emails, though
>>25
I all ready added Wizardchan, idiot
I found an imageboard you're missing
It's french so that's probably why though

please elaborate
This is beautiful, thank you anon. I will be busy for quite awhile with this
thanks for the great few days of looking through fresh content

Please be aware that I can only update the Google Docs page
As you can see, I was already aware that site was down
please dont use google docs its a paid site
There's also a decentralised imageboard called NNTP-Overchan
http://topchan.xyz/static/faq.html
A few frontends:

This is a nice list, thanks anon.
I'm assuming he means paid in the sense that it's proprietary software and therefore may not respect your rights. Of course, I don't really know any other service that allows me to update my text online, unless I were to make my own site.
>>38
Thanks, dude. I'll write those down.
>>42
Services that allow one to update their text online:
http://etherpad.org/
https://github.com/ether/etherpad-lite/wiki/Sites-that-run-Etherpad-Lite
http://docs.kotori.me/ (Most likely also running Etherpad)
I tried to use spaces to indent the last 2 lines in >>43 but it didn't work
I'm familiar with etherpad. The issue is that I cannot disable the ability for others to edit with etherpad.
>>45 does it matter?
Yes, it matters.
When I started, I shared it with a few online friends, and editing was open. Just a few minutes later, the teenaged one of the group shared it with a few of his own teenaged friends, and they marked up the whole thing with memes
You included .71 but didn't include http://skyqueen.cc/wish/ ? It's still pretty active.
I'm still sad that iichan is gone. So many textboards are lost in time, like tears in the rain.
>>49
Same.
You did a great job OP! I started a project similar to yours at http://8ch.net/newspaper but you got so much more boards than I did.
if you are going to give me criticism, or suggest a site, please read the Google Docs version first

/neet/, a new textboard to add -- 4x13.net/neet/
I am responsible for the return of /neet/.

Oops, Google Docs doesn't work that well on a mobile browser so Tanobb didn't show up when searching the page

>>52
Have you considered contributing to bibanon? https://github.com/bibanon/bibanon/wiki
>>60
Kimmo Alms! Long time no see! I thought you ragequit the internet. But you're still spammin' eh?
>>61
I'm not sure how that counts as spam.
is a Taiwanese board and not a Japanese board like you wrote.
What the hell is this place? It's like a carbon copy of 4chan, but without any posters. Can somebody explain the history here, or who runs the site? I see only scarce info in >>1's summary.
The twitter account is also weird. It gives the impression that the website is somehow hip and happening: twitter @4ctorg (can't link directly due to spam filter)
I guess it's a bit rich posting about this on 4-ch, which is also quite devoid of posters, but at least nobody is in denial about that.
>>65
Same with textboards /newpol/, and /tele/. There's probably some other boards too.
/vip/ too.
>>64
It is primarily a textboard. And it does good job at that.
>>1
Hihi, thanks for mentioning 4x13!
Please make sure to include a revision to http://4x13.net/bbs/ in your next update. Unlike Tablecat (tablecat BBS), Post Office (emanon BBS), and 4-ch (kareha), it runs iyagi BBS, a public-domain textboard script written in Python 3.
iyagi allows for sticky, lock, stickylock, and permasages; it also has a [yt] tag for youtube embed.
nobody cares about your shit board tokiko you ugly faggot
https://lolcow.farm/ is an offshore imageboard of hambeasts from /cgl/
there's a girl talk board that's pretty entertaining to read, it's like reading someones diary
im going through a lot of these chans and there's quite a few that have a ridiculous amount of boards for such little posters, it's really retarded
>>72 something feels off about that imageboard, but I just can't put my finger on it.
>>74
It feels like some unholy union between tumblr and yotsuba.
Probably because girl culture, with females amongst females.
The tone of passive aggressive vitriol unnerves me. I could get it if it were mainly just a thing for insulting detestable SJWs and tumblr users, but it seems like a more general thing. Girls nipping away little bits of each others flesh.
I was going to give a remark about how 4-ch didn't like imageboards in general but I actually went to that website.
I think I understand >>75 now.
>>72
This site have a problem with people taking joking posts too seriously.
too many boards is a major mistake of the amateur channel operator. don't split the userbase, don't force them to visit 3 or 4 boards on your site to find 1 or 2 good threads. anonymous boards are on the way out
just dropping this off here, seems appropriate.
>>80 hey tokiko i have a joke for you, what has orange eyeballs and is never late?
>>81
That's a tough one! Not you, I hope!
>>82 a clockwork orange! bahaha
>>83
hahahaha!
Don't forget 4taba.net
http://comfy.cu.cc/
saw this on the wakaba /sup/ and thought it was pretty cozy
not much to it but the themes are a unique addition
Does anybody know a site where you answer people's question and then getting to ask your own after making a reply? It's not exactly a chan but the atmosphere is its own, distinct. I recall seeing threads from 2006 so I guess it's been around.
>>90
Not quite. But this is good too
Has 0037's site died? Been down for me for a couple hours already.
>>93
I think it's dead. Maybe Avery Morrow finally noticed the threads about himself and went full autism?
Are there any decent(and hopefully active) /a/ spinoffs out there?
can anyone tell me how do i send sms on any mobile phone anonymously ???
Any place for politics?
