Halfchan is 4chan. I think he was being sarcastic. 8chan and a few others spun off because of 4chan censorship. They called 4chan halfchan because - 4 is half of 8.

According to the Dems, it's not half of 8. It's more of a PI of 8.

Thought it was the same thing cuz 8 can also be viewed as an infinity sign if you turn 8 sideways to make it an infinity sign?

I thought halfchan was the OG, 2ch. 'cause you know, 2 is half of 4.

I'm not a full autist. What's 8chan vs 4chan? Is it like double the chan?

It was, before Cloudflare and the Demcrats shut them down and completely deplatformed them, and even brought the owners before a congressional tribunal. They were nowhere near what they used to be, and had really been hit hard by censorship - like the rest of the interwebs - but, yeah. Probably the biggest and worst case of all out internet censorship I've seen so far. I think it's back as 8kun, now. I'm not sure if it's as big as it used to be, though. I haven't been there since it came back up.
