Why on Earth would you want there to be?
The total anonymity aspect is seductive. Say anything without it being tied to any one user. Lots of toxic and nasty shit comes out of that, but also some crazy ideas and high concept stuff that might never gain traction because nobody wants to go on record about it.
Its called X
federated
X is heavily moderated compared to 4chan. Its just moderated to favor right wing views now. Plus the heavy amount of control the algorithm provides in shaping peoples content bubbles.
There was one for a while. They tend to get defederated. Exploding Heads decides to move to Nostr and close their lemmy instance down
The freemarket spoke lmao
😂
I hear some of the old exploding-heads crew is back as hilariouschaos.com
Wow, really? I thought HC was just shitpost garbage.
I’ve seen some of the posts and they are pretty skeevy
Hexbear
“hexbear is fediverse 4chan!!!”
has the largest weekly trans megathread in the entire fediverse, a supermajority of non-cishet users, aggressively bans racism, bigotry and transphobia on sight, has hard-coded mandatory pronoun tags
Lmao okay, sure bud
Sounds like someone got bullied for having a bad take and now can’t tell the difference between nazis and queers
If you enjoy dumb takes and edgy politics it’s for you. I’m not surprised someone from ml is defending hexbear tbh.
Not to mention your defense is “you got bullied”. Sounds like an awesome place, eh.
Willing to bet ‘dumb takes’ and ‘edgy politics’ exactly describe the correct moral position in the argument you got bullied over your bad takes. Care to elaborate or just gonna hide in the tall grass of hypotheticals and generalizations?
I never said I got bullied. That’s you telling everyone your experience.
Funhouse mirror version but yeah it is pretty similar, never thought about that.
What similarities are there, other than the users being exceptionally ornery?
You can make one here that’s the entire purpose of fedi.
Anyway, what aspect are you looking for? 4chan is a big place, prolly bigger than fediverse
Also I imagine OP wants 4chan for the users/community and not the format.
well we got, what we got…
9/10 people can’t be bothered to pitch in!
i know y’all mofos got some knowledge and opinions, lurkers.
Lurker checking in to acknowledge my shame. I like that the fediverse has better discourse than reddit and I want to contribute to it. It’s just that I have been a lurker for so long that it’s gonna take some time to start actively engaging.
I was you on other platforms. Managed to participate here a lot more.
Thank your for the service!
Sometimes the thread is to old for me to comments.
to me the fact that nobody really cares helps.
Sometimes that same fact makes me delete a whole paragraph but when I do post, i don’t stress out about it.
Leave me alone, furiously masturbating in the corner over here.
Hey man, I’m all over the comment sections. I am no content creator, just an armchair critic and pundit. The peanut gallery is important too y’know. :)
Not under any active development
i don’t really see the usecase that isn’t perfectly covered by lemmy?
What exactly about 4chan are you looking for?
How does 4chan’s design differ from traditional forums, really? There’s less moderation and more anonymity than you might usually expect, but the very nature of ActivityPub means that aspect doesn’t really make as much sense in a federated forum.
So do you just want something like Lemmy but without nested comments or upvoting, and only sorting posts by new and comments by old, the way a traditional forum does? For that you might be able to try LemmyBB which is a front-end to Lemmy that says it’s supposed to look like phpBB forums. (Unfortunately I can’t verify because the two domains its Readme claims run that software are both no longer active.) Or you could try Morum, forum software based not in ActivityPub but Matrix. There are also plugins for non-federated forum software, like Discourse which aim to enable ActivityPub integration with their forums.
Is there some other feature of 4chan that you want to see?
One with user blocking and actual moderating of racists/bigots would be interesting
!greentext@lemmy.ml is about as close as it gets

Is 4chan anonymous because it doesn’t require a username?
deleted by creator
I’m fairly sure I’ve seen an NNTP based imageboard that distributed it’s content through that protocol and different instances had overlap of boards. That’s about the closest match to federated system you’re going to find with this model I think. Interesting concept. Not something I’d want to interact with personally though.
