4chan
4chan is an imageboard created in 2003 by Moot. In the Zaryan community, this site is known for its /co/ board, this is where the English Ongezellig community began. They are the original Zaryans. /co/ is now mostly hated by the Zarty, some exceptions exist such as Cam, who is liked by all Zaryans for his artwork. Another important board was /qa/, which directly shaped the culture of today's Zaryans.
Administration
Originally owned by Moot, he later sold 4chan to Hiro in 2015, who has had little engagement with the community ever since. It is essentially run by jannies, who in the course of the years, proceeded to rulecuck it even more, with the latest restrictions being a 300 seconds post timer and a site-wide ban on posts containing the word "nigger" or "faggot" more than 3 times.

/qa/ - Question & Answer† (pronounciation: kway) is the crib of /qa/ culture and all of its subsequent communities. It was originally created in January 2015 as a platform for Moot to host a question and answer thread before he would quit as the site owner, later becoming a more general random/meta board for the whole website. By 2018 and onwards, the board became the home of a diverse group of shitposters, namely the 'jakkers, who would later be known as soyteens, us, the Zaryans, frogs, Leebaiters, Touhou and K-Pop fans, stonetoss enjoyers, chuds from /pol/, tankies from /leftypol/, schizos from /x/, racebaiters, an obsessed faggot who hated the word "though" and many others. If all of this seems familiar it's because this melting pot of shitposting became the foundation for the shiny glistening gem known as /qa/ culture and later sharty culture. Even though the board stated that "it had no specific theme and you are free to be yourself!", this was only true on paper as the jannies would often enact purges of soyjaks posters and other posters who they personally didn't like. This was exacerbated by the sentiment of the local anons towards these "nufags who have no respect for muh oldtranny kulcha", who btw totally seethed everytime they saw a 'jak.
<ARYAN /QA/ SPACE
The fun was cut short when on November 3rd 2021, the board was hidden, locked and completely wiped, destroying our beloved hyperborean homeland, and forcing /qa/ posters to migrate somewhere else (or /bant/, but only trannies use that board). Today's the board is still visitable, but it's still hidden and locked, and only contains three threads: the sticky by Hiro, and two threads about "4chan's happenings", one from 2021 and another from 2024.
The legacy of /qa/ is still felt in the communities it spawned, with many having a dedicated /qa/ board. The Zarty has one too, and its topic is currently "General topics" (before being "IAS and other sharty culture and NAZ").
Despite the fact that it has been at least 4 years, 4cuckers are still buckbroken by us, with the word "soy" filtering to "onions", advertisements for "soyjak related websites" being banned from being shown on the paid banners, and anons forever having our aryan culture being displayed on every corner of the internet. /qa/ won so hard.

Trivia
- /qa/ is listed as a supporter in the credits of Deel 6. This was done thanks to the work of an unknown Zaryan donating 5 dutch dollars to Massa's petje under the name of "/qa/". Recently a poster has come forth to state that he was behind this act, but has provided no evidence so far.
