Nanochan

Nanochan was an anonymous imageboard only accessible via Tor, last seen active in November 2022. It had several boards for you to post on, including a /g/ board. In 2021, Nanochan discontinued its long-running /pol/ board for undisclosed reasons.

Rules

These were the Nanochan rules as of Sun 20 Feb 2022 09:43:49 AM UTC:

1. Cancer will be purged.

These were the Nanochan guidelines as of Sun 20 Feb 2022 09:43:49 AM UTC:

1. Child pornography is not permitted. Links to child pornography are not permitted either, and neither are links to websites which contain a significant number of direct links to CP.
2. Flooding is not permitted. We define flooding as posting similar posts more than 3 times per hour, making a thread on a topic for which a thread already exists, or posting in such a way that it significantly changes the composition of a board. Common sense will be utilized.
3. Usage of outside memes such as pepes or wojacks is prohibited. Common sense will be utilized.
4. 3DPD porn is prohibited.

These guidelines apply to all boards on nanochan except /b/ and /l/.

1. Hate towards who people are (such as racism or sexism) or what people are attracted to is prohibited.
2. Discussion of political topics is prohibited. Common sense will be utilized.
3. NSFW thread icons are prohibited.

Individual boards may set their own rules which apply to that board, and boards which do not specify their own rules typically follow the board-specific rules of /l/. However, note that the rules stated above apply to everything done on the website.

Spinoffs

In nanochan's final years, the site was left in a semi-abandoned state by the last administrator endofunctor, leading to frequent downtime. During this period, multiple spinoff sites were created:

• Lambdaplusjs - Has a /tech/ board, a less active /math/, and miscellaneous blogging threads. Users can create boards, but moderation is decided by the admin. Currently the most active of the three.
• Phichannel - Home of Lynn's knitting blog, and other boards about computers, art, Monero, and books.
• Nanochanray - Unofficial nanochan clone with posts copied from the original. Admin has a history of gaslighting users with falsified moderation logs. Numerous wordfilters, including the admin's suspected former moniker "hikari", trigger fake connection errors. Somewhat useful as an archive.
