What do you know about it?

Japan used to support i-mode for a pretty long time (I think they still do?), which I guess makes sense since it was created by them.

Minichan and Tinychan are still alive!

Whenever I was walking around I'd use a .jar application on my phone to use very little 2G data and browse stuff like FML and other ancient shit sites for a very low cost.

Support is ending soon. I think it'll either be this year or next year.

Anyone know some sites that are feature phone friendly (WAP/HTTP/240x320 displays)?

I was about to write something similar to >>5, but now I'm wondering if that was my post from last year. Unfortunately their wap/mobile site is down, but whatever it was all fake or low quality anyways.

~2009ish. The initial lore of mini/tiny et al is unceremonious, as it was their spat with Ano**alk's mentally unstable sysop's shenanigans spammed all over /b/ constantly that gave all those "tiny" boards visibility.

In spite of her rocky start, tinychan grew to be somewhat liked over the years, as she came to the rescue of many dying text boards - https://dis.tinychan.net. The tinychan frontpage still acting as a convenient sinkhole for low quality posters to this day.

** - the presence of filters even on here is a testament to the menace those boards used to be.

I'd love to see archives of promotional i-mode websites for anime, or anime posters with i-mode links/its logo.

Actually, does anybody know where to find such posters? I've checked the boorus, but there's no good tag for it (at least, not one I'm familiar with).

Dwarf Fortress' forum has a WAP mode, and by extension, all SMF-based forums, at least up to 2.0.13.
