OH HEY, whateverchan got you down??? Need a more personal setting in which to share your feelings, vore artwork, or pictures of your genitals? Banned for unspeakable crimes NO REASON AT ALL, FUCKIN MODS? Well then…
This may come as a shock, but there are in fact other image boards in the world. This list is just a few that have managed to stay online for awhile or at least caught my attention for one reason or another. Obviously, assume everything is NSFW, tread lightly, and be prepared to bail…
Here' some:
2chan - The mother of all and a great source of crazy. Only Japanese and JETs can post, though.
ALIVE
7chan - The original knock-off, and go-to when 4chan is down.
ALIVE
8chan - A New and Improved knock-off.
ALIVE
420chan - Drugs and hentai, together at last.
QUIET
Komica - It's in Taiwan, so good luck figuring this one out.
ALIVE
Krautchan - Lacks the sleek design and efficiency you'd expect of Germans.
ALIVE
Desuchan - General and
extremely specific anime discussion
QUIET
Uboachan - Yume Nikki, hentai, and Yume Nikki hentai.
QUIET
Aurorachan - General discussion, anime, etc. Associated with the above two and the weakest of all three.
QUIET
Tohno-chan - Otaku up the ass and angsty as fuck.
QUIET
4chon.org - General discussion, anime, etc. Will someone register 4chyn.org someday?
DYING

Graveyard/Purgatory:
Idlechan - The original rip-off, and another good go-to when 4chan is down. TEMPORARY?
