5ch is not an image board—it is a text board (also known as a text-based bulletin board).
While it is often compared to imageboards like 4chan, 5ch does not support direct image uploads. Instead, users share images by linking to external image hosting sites such as Imgur, xxup.org, or catbox.moe. This is a key distinction: 5ch focuses on text-based discussion, and image sharing is done via third-party services.

Registered Agents Inc. has since rebranded Epik as a service provider for entrepreneurs and small businesses, distancing it from its previous reputation as a host for far-right and controversial websites.
