Marking Dead 10-18-2023. Site now goes to this message:
Bye! I am bored and don’t have enough motiviation to keep this site up. In last 30 days we served 3.16M requests (according to cloudflare). It was fun while it lasted. All the posts and user data will be nuked. Thanks to jannies, for keeping all the pedos and unwanted elements away from the board. – inchadmin

Traffic Lag
Traffic Lag has been listed on here a while, but someone submitted some more information on the site.
Traffic Lag is a Greek message board created in 2008 and has been active since. It was redesigned recently and now only has 1 board /b/. The site has a cult userbase in Greece, but the site seems to convert to English well with google translate.
Frens chan – Dead
Frenschan was made for users of 4chan that have become fed up with the excessive amounts of degeneracy plaguing /b/ and /pol/. Fren Chan is a cozy place to post anonymously and a safe haven for free speech.

Kissu
Kissu hosts a regularly archived happening thread running from 2019 to present. Said thread sometimes shows up when people want to document significant imageboard events. https://kissu.moe/qa/thread/4165. One such instance that might be of interest is https://www.reddit.com/r/guro/comments/lmh7dj/update_on_gurochan_drama_and_kuz/, although take the reddit post with a grain of salt, the guy is known to create drama about himself for some reason.
Site discusses otaku culture, imageboard meta and technology. Sharing images and video links in various threads. Also casual discussion. When discussing real world events we try to stay as close to documenting them as possible.
Kissu was created in 2018 from otaku and meta posters who left 4chan’s /qa/ board.
In 2020 I started reworking the user interface following difficulties with the Vichan-UI upon updating updating to PHP7.4. Feeling that Kissu needed modernization, a unique theme and software to stand out from the rest I began a long task of creating a contemporary imageboard user interface from scratch. Inspired by 4ChanX, it was a Javascript only UI written in ReactJS. I adopted many of the tools that are used by the popular 4ChanX extension and gave it my own taste.
The vichan engine has been modified too to allow for polling on /poll/ and upvoting (only) on /ec/.

Krautchan
Krautchan is a primarily German-language imageboard that was founded in 2007. I think I had avoided adding it in the past because it was not in English, but it seems that it is fine to browse in English now. Unlike most imageboards, posters on Krautchan didn’t publish their postings under the generic name “Anonymous”. The German name “Bernd” was used instead, and the Krautchan community identified themselves as “Bernds” instead of “Anons”.
