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

They are imageboards. Just because their layout is slicker than imageboards used to look like 25 years ago doesn't make them not imageboards

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?

Can’t encrypt a .rar and hide it covertly in an image that opens and displays like normal until you rename the file extension and decrypt it
That was definitely a darker time

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.

Meant to prevent ban evasions but serial evaders just reset their routers.

Channers are more fearful of and reluctant to change than the general population.

Everyone who cares about the imageboard format cares about it because they like 2channel/4chan culture
