A primarily German-language imageboard that was founded in 2007. The name is an allusion to the ethnophaulism "Kraut" for Germans. Unlike most imageboards, posters on Krautchan didn't publish their postings under the generic name "Anonymous". The German name "Bernd" was used instead, and the Krautchan community identified themselves as "Bernds" instead of "Anons". In 2009, after the Winnenden school shooting, the interior minister of Baden-Württemberg cited a post on the imageboard in a press conference that appeared to forewarn of the shooting, but was later found to be fake. The site also featured a popular English-language board, /int/, which was also the origin of the Polandball internet phenomenon and a number of other popular memes such as Wojak in August the same year. On March 21, 2018 the imageboard was shut down. Two days later the imageboard "kohlchan" was founded as a replacement. Attempts to view the latter via Google translate are redirected to NSFW content.
