Comparison
8chan/kun vs PTT Bulletin Board System
Who’s behind each, what their homepages track, what they cost and how often their policies changed, measured the same way for both. By what they offer, they’re close.
8kun (formerly 8chan) is an anonymous imageboard where users create and moderate their own message boards with minimal site administration. It has been linked to extremist content, harassment campaigns and mass shootings.
PTT is a large Taiwanese terminal-based bulletin board system (BBS) with thousands of discussion boards. Users can access it through a web terminal, a web reader for browsing posts, or SSH/WebSocket clients. It is run as a non-commercial, academically neutral service.
