OurChan

Ourchan (ourchan.org) is a specialized anonymous imageboard dedicated to leftist political discussion, theory, and organizing. It is a prominent "Red" board, serving as a Marxist-Leninist alternative to the often anarchist or broad-tent leftypol.org and the right-wing /pol/ found on mainstream imageboards. 1. Key Dates and Registration Domain Registration: The domain ourchan.org was registered on November 17, 2019. Launch: The site launched in late 2019/early 2020. It emerged during the tumultuous period following the shutdown of 8chan (which hosted the original /leftypol/) and the subsequent fragmentation of the online leftist imageboard community. Status: It remains active as one of the primary "bunkers" for the Leftypol community, often cited alongside leftypol.org and bunkerchan.xyz. 2. What is the site? Ourchan is an anonymous imageboard (running on JSchan software) that fosters a "tankie" or orthodox Marxist-Leninist environment. The Ideology: Unlike other leftist spaces that may tolerate anarchism or social democracy, Ourchan is historically more focused on "Actually Existing Socialism" (AES) and scientific socialism. It serves as a place for serious theoretical discussion (/edu/), current events analysis (/pol/), and general "comfy" leftist chat. The "Bunker" Mentality: The site was built to be resilient against the DDOS attacks and de-platforming that frequently target political imageboards. It often serves as a backup location when other major leftist boards go offline. Culture: The culture mixes traditional imageboard slang with Marxist terminology. Users are expected to have read at least basic theory (Marx, Lenin, Stalin, Mao) and often engage in "struggle sessions" or debates regarding historical revisionism. 3. What does the name mean? The name is a play on the "Our" meme associated with communism: Our: References the "Our" vs "My" distinction (e.g., the Bugs Bunny "Our Food" meme), symbolizing collectivism, shared ownership, and the abolition of private property. Chan: The standard suffix for anonymous imageboards. Ourchan: Effectively translates to "The Collective's Imageboard" or "The People's Chan."

Sportschan

Sportschan (sportschan.org) is a niche anonymous imageboard dedicated to sports discussion. It serves as an "alt-chan" alternative to mainstream boards like 4chan's /sp/, using modern imageboard software to host a variety of sports-related and general-interest boards. 1. Key Dates and Registration Domain Registration: The domain sportschan.org was first registered on December 22, 2018. First Wayback Machine Capture: The Internet Archive first captured the site on December 26, 2018. Launch: The site officially went live in late December 2018, appearing as part of a wave of "specialty" imageboards that launched using the Vichan or Infinity software engines (alternative software to 4chan’s Yotsuba). 2. What is the site? Sportschan is a community-run anonymous forum (BBS) where users can discuss professional and amateur sports. Alternative Culture: It was founded to provide a space for sports fans who wanted the "chan" style of communication (anonymity, image sharing, thread-based discussion) but desired a different community atmosphere or moderation style compared to larger sites. Technical Build: It uses Vichan/Infinity, which is favored by many "alt-chans" for its customizable themes and modernized user interface. It is often cited in developer documentation for imageboard archivers (like Hayden) as a primary example of a high-performance Infinity-based site. Content: While primarily focused on sports, it follows the traditional imageboard structure by including "off-topic" boards for general culture, gaming, and international discussion. 3. What does the name mean? Sports: Refers to the primary subject matter and the site's original intended focus. Chan: Short for "channel," the standard suffix for imageboards (derived from 2channel and 4chan). Sportschan: Effectively translates to "The Sports Imageboard." images from 1-2026
