1500chan
1500chan, also known as Caravela,1) is the Brazilian Portuguese bulletin board co-founded by former BRchan staff “N.” and “R.”2) around April 28, 2013. It used to be a niche website for old users, until 55chan and SFChan users decided to migrate over in 2020.
History
2013-2019
The fall of BRchan on April 19, 2013 would cause the former BRchan moderator “N.” to set up HUEchan at “huechan.net” with Kusaba X on April 28, 2013,3) but the name sucked, so HUEchan was renamed to 1500chan at the “1500chan.org” domain by May 5, 2013.4) However, this did not attract the BRchan diaspora, who ended up migrating to 55chan instead, so 1500chan became a niche website for older users.
Over the years, 1500chan stuck with Kusaba X and reluctant to change, but it was eventually replaced with Vichan on August 13, 2018, except they did not know how to add themes or have more than five boards. Eventually on October 30, 2019, 73chan merged into 1500chan and their programmer “Eggman” basically got the website running properly with actual boards and website themes.
2020-
In 2020, it was announced that 55chan will shut down, so SFChan would contact 1500chan about a merge, then a joint announcement was made on October 5, 2020, sending them to a /jp/ board.5) This tiny move would, unexpectedly, cause most 55chan users to flee to 1500chan, so they capitalized on this with trial boards on January 5, 2021, right before 55chan had formally shut itself down on January 15, 2021.
Shortly after, 1500chan was 'christened' as 55chan's true successor, then “N.” declared that 1500chan was 'pro-Bolsonaro' on October 28, 2021 and confirmed it was a far-right cesspool.6)7) Around June 4, 2022, 1500chan gained national attention for pro-Bolsonaro fake news,8) so they rushed to set up a fake 404 page to deter readers, then Lula beat Bolsonaro and the far-right coup failed.

Notes
- The website mascot is a cockatiel (calopsita) as the early days of /b/ saw many cockatiel threads.
- It led to the creation of a “Bird Culture” (/ave/) trial board, but this only lasted five months.9)
- On the fake 404 page, “7(2x-3)-4(x+5) = 8(x-1)+3” would generate a graph whose answer is “x = 18”.
- For some reason, the staff love pinned/stickied threads and making their presence known.
