This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

The biggest image board is Instagram or Pinterest or some site like that.

this is like saying a hovercraft is a car because it's a personal transportation vehicle.

If it's such a clear disparity then explain to me how Pinterest isn't an imageboard?

First off, there's no anonymous posting, and barely any anonymous reading

Lol "4chan is the biggest website out of all the websites identical to 4chan"

Most imageboards and 2channel-style discussion boards allow (and encourage) anonymous posting and use a system of tripcodes instead of registration.

I have used a variety of imageboards, and looked into their history. Instagram isn't a fucking imageboard.

That has nothing to do with whether a site is an imageboard. Obviously there are a zillion differences between 4chan and Pinterest, but none that make Pinterest not an image board
