What is the Japanese equivalent of 4chan? Is it 2chan? It doesn't seem as active as 4chan though... Was there another similar Japanese forum to here?
>>1510844
>>1510849What?
>>1510849I dont want to
>>1510882Don't want to tell me what?!?
>>1510844lmao
>>1510890WHAT?!?!
Anon... 4chan is the English version of 2chan, not the other way round. 2chan came before it.
>>1510895We were just about being desu
>>1510895Oh... So... Why is 2chan so inactive?>>1510902>desuThis is an ancient meme, isn't it
>>1510910>inactivejapanese no longer use pcs only phones
>>15108442chan is fully text, futabachannel has imageboards
>>1510928What, why?>>1510929Oh... Then maybe I should pay futabachannel a visit then... thank you
>>1510929Oh wait, I already visited futabachannel, isn't that the same website as 2chan? Could you or anyone send both links cause I don't see the difference between the two
>>1510956>>1510955futabachannel = 2chan.nethttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2chanIt's weird because the original domain doesn't exist anymore, but link should clarify
>>1510959Okay, so 2chan is not only text then?
>>1510961of the ones on that list, only futabachannel as far as I'm aware.
>>1510965What list?
>>1510971>>1510959>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2chankek, am I being trolled?
>>1510972No, I just never opened that wiki link lolNow I get it! Wow, there's so much lore behind 2chan... Thank you!!!
So wtf are the Japanese using now? Since futabachan is fucking dead and 4chan is English only.
>>1510976discord twitter and tiktok
>>1510977But those aren't really anonymous to use
>>1510976dunno what im looking at, but this might be useful to youhttps://futapo.futakuro.com/?server=may_b&mode=6_0&search=&searchMode=0&kako=0
>>1510983Thank you, this seems to be a collection of the most active threads on futabachan...!
>>1510895Yep, and we had a lot of fun with it
>>1511116Damn...
>>1510844Does anyone know how to browse 2chan? Google translate doesn't work for some reason.
>>1511116I thought you needed a japanese ISP to post there? Or maybe this is the reason they implemented that feature? lol
>>1510976We mostly use 5ch, but there's some other popular BBS sites likes GirlsChannel. I think talk.jp had some traction a while back. Lots of people on Twitter, although I'm seeing more people (mostly artists) jumping onto Blue Sky because of Twitter's updated policy regarding AI training.
>>1511416Kek
>>1511556>5chHow many "chans" are there? So does stuff like 4-san, -sama, or -kun exist too?
>>1511581Just the one. It was 2channel originally but after the takeover they eventually changed the name to 5channel but it's still the same website. Hiroyuki made a clone of the original after the takeover which is still called 2channel but hardly anyone uses that one. Futaba is its own thing and, again, hardly anyone uses that.
>>1511581>So does stuff like 4-san, -sama, or -kun exist too?I forgot to respond to this part. No. It's short for "channel", but yes other "channels" exist, like GirlsChannel which I mentioned earlier.
>>1511556>BBS sitesWhat does that mean?>>1511582>takeoverWhat takeover?>a clone of the originalOf the original 2chan?>>1511583I see.>GirlsChannelIsn't that mostly used by girls?>5chanCould you please post a link to it cause I can't FUCKING find it haha.
>>1511585>>BBS sites>What does that mean?Really anon, you can't figure that one out?
>>1511416>Or maybe this is the reason they implemented that feature? lollocal cunnyseurs were posting 'za using gaijin proxies so they banned all gaijin IPs sometime after 2009
>>1511609My sources say "Bulletin Board System"
>>1511612Based nips
>>1511585>BBS sites>What does that mean?Bulletin board system>What takeover?It was owned by Hiroyuki and then it was forcibly taken from him and is run by someone else now.>a clone of the original>Of the original 2chan?Yeah, by Hiroyuki himself. But like I said nobody uses it.>GirlsChannel>Isn't that mostly used by girls?Yes, but there's definitely some guys on there. Sometimes they get caught. I personally lurk there because I enjoy some of the funny threads, and quite frankly I like the site format better than 5ch.>5chan>Could you please post a link to it cause I can't FUCKING find it hahahttps://itest.5ch.net/
>>1511556Is NND still going strong? I check up on it from time to time but surely Youtube has taken over as the main video content site?
>>1511730It's been in decline for years. I haven't even heard it mentioned in over a decade.
>>1511734That's really sad, I hope it stays online for the foreseeable future. There's so much on there that'll probably never be seen on Youtube like anime crossover openings, I fucking love searching on there for them.I remember finding a Yawara x Ico opening last week that was so well made, I was shocked. It was uploaded in 2008 and apparently no one in that time uploaded it to Youtube from what I could tell.So many cool things like this might be lost to time if they decide to shut it down in the future.
>>1511657Souka, wakarimashita>https://itest.5ch.net/Thank you!
>>1511730>NNDWhat?
>>1510910>Oh... So... Why is 2chan so inactive?>population of english speakers 1.3 billion>population of japanese speakers 123 million, less than 10%
>>1511923It's still a lot though
God, futabachannel and 5chan or completely unusable.
>>1511582>the takeoverWhat's this? I never paid attention to any news about this.So 2channel is owned by an American, and 4chan is own by a Japanese. That seems odd.
>>1511968Yeah lmaooo, it's kinda like a paradox, right?
>>1511116lol lmao
>>1511132Can someone please reply to this??? I notice with a lot of Japanese websites Google Translate doesn't work for some reason.
>>1512136Just use the camera function of the Google Translate app on your phone
