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.

People are still on Twitter

Because imageboards have no significance anymore.

Because it helped in the slow death of fandom forums.

Back in the days, you went to Johnny's Anime Forum. Then people demanded Johnny to give them the same freedom 4chan allowed. Johnny either bade his forum hostile to others, or let people go to 4chan.

Yes, the ultimate blow was Facebook groups and pages, alongside with Reddit, but 4chan was the first blow.

Nowadays the closest thing we have for that is Lemmy/Piefed/mbin.

Do you like mbin? I didn't know about that one.

It's not even remotely the biggest image board. The biggest image board is Instagram or Pinterest or some site like that.

None of those are imageboards

Neither is 4chan
