The Nanosphere
This thread's purpose is to list places in the Nanosphere to enable quick access from any one place to another, for those who might not have all links saved. In case one place goes down, nanons may be found in the other links listed.

Anonymity-friendly imageboard/forum comparison
I want to build a database of popular imageboards and forums to compare which ones are the best for anonymity. Obviously the ability to post on Tor or other darknets is a must. The site should have as many users and posts per day as possible to maximize blending in. It should be possible to post without registration and unique user identifiers. Allowing optional registration or user names may be good or bad. The site should work without JavaScript.

Clearnet address may be good or bad. It allows normies to access the site but reveals the server's location. Supporting one set of darknets may be better or worse than supporting a different set of darknets.

Let's start.

what happened to infiniteboards.top?
The clearnet domain redirects to a shitty, inferior, dysfunctional IB called konatachan. The onion is completely down. I really had hope this board could become something great, but now it's gone without any hint where it could be. A few threads from it survived on the new konatachan, which could imply this is permanent, but the software is much worse, all the good boards are gone. It allowed noJS Tor posting and slowly became active and fun, but fuck, now it gone. ADMIN IF YOU READ THIS, GTFI back online

captchas
4chan added some more letters to its slider captcha and some white lines. Do you think it will stop bots? Which imageboards do you think have the best captchas?

Phichannel Archives
Below is a download link for a complete wget archive of Phichannel from late March (shortly before it went down for good as far as I know) that I've been sitting on. The .7z archive also includes multiple copies of the database from different times, so you might be able to view a select few deleted posts that way. Total size is about 400MB.

Some notable limitations:
~ Obviously, you can't post.
~ No banner will be randomly selected for the front page.
~ The "Next" button doesn't work on boards using the index view. You need to click on the page number directly.

Link: http://filesharehk7dfa4dcomiw36ycq54koe57cgwksksq3p7kxim4fozyid.onion/file.php?id=ltqkabdcwp (Expires one month from now)

[spoiler: And yes, I also keep partial wget archives (/All/recent + page requisites) of Lambdaplusjs and Lambdaplusjs Two if either were to ever go down.]

4Chan 20th aniversary
Barely any websites get to last this long, let alone user forums. Twenty whole years is an eternity by internet standards. However, 4chan itself is overrun by shit now. The management did [bold: nothing] for this milestone. moot can be dead for all we know he didn't show his face anyhow. And hiroyuki is in a voicecall masturbating with the rest of the mods on a private discord server, planning some trip to Africa ffs.
We got the usual artwork commission for $20, a partyhat, and small text saying "20th anniversary" right bellow "janitor acceptance emails have been sent out". That's it. Will be removed tomorrow. Fucking random anons put more effort into this, example /watch?v=ngZXUbSefYI . The worst part is that discussion was non-existent. I remember seeing more threads on the 19th then now. Seriously, there was 1 desu thread on /a/ that was of any quality. The rest was either all the people whining or everyone pretending to be a super oldfag. I cannot tell, but I could understand both.

Anyways, the anniversary gives us an excuse. How has 4chan affected your life? Do you still frequent it? Since when did you jump to altchans if you did?

Taiwanese imageboards
Have you ever been to Taiwanese imageboards? What do you make of their structure? To what extent does it make sense to compare Komica to the western imageboard webrings? Do we have any English-speaking users from there who can tell us their experiences?

Pic was from me trying to figure out this site a while back to little success:

Gimmicky Imageboards
λ+'s main gimmick is the triviality of creating your own board.
Most imageboards have no gimmick, they just meet the minimum imageboard requirements and count on network effects taking place.
/r9k/ was 4chan's attempt at a gimmicky board. It was awful, but it was novel.

So, let's define a gimmick. A gimmick is a feature or deliberate quirk in software behavior that influences or, in the extreme, defines the user experience.

What are some gimmicks you'd like to see in imageboard software?

8kun just went full honeypot
Watkins is now asking his remaining Qboomer users to install an app on their phones to allow them to post. This is ostensibly motivated by a heavy spam campaign which he is calling "shill attacks" and attacks on the site's captcha system.
