4chan is an anonymous English-language imageboard website. Launched by Christopher "moot" Poole in October 2003, the site hosts boards dedicated to a wide variety of topics, from anime and manga to video games, cooking, weapons, television, music, literature, history, fitness, politics, and sports, among others. Registration is not available and users typically post anonymously.

As of 2022, 4chan receives more than 22 million unique monthly visitors, of which approximately half are from the United States.

4chan was created as an unofficial English-language counterpart to the Japanese imageboard Futaba Channel, also known as 2chan, and its first boards were created for posting images and discussion related to anime.

The site has been described as a hub of Internet subculture, its community being influential in the formation of prominent Internet memes, such as lolcats, Rickrolling, rage comics, as well as hacktivist and political movements, such as Anonymous and the alt-right. 4chan has often been the subject of media attention as a source of controversies, including the coordination of pranks and harassment against websites and Internet users, and the posting of illegal and offensive content.

In 2008 The Guardian summarized the 4chan community of the time as "lunatic, juvenile (...) brilliant, ridiculous and alarming", and in 2022, described the site's politics board as "far-right".
