The English-speaking web has many different types of websites. For social media, there are link aggregators (Lemmy/Mbin/etc., reddit), microblog sites (Mastodon/Pleroma/etc., Xitter), forums like BBS boards, and more.
This post talks about Misskey and how it diverges from Western-made Fediverse culture. This reminded me of some other Japanese-style websites, such as textboards, chan imageboards and booru sites (booru imageboards are essentially a tag-based media archive, which similarly to chan boards have entered into the English-speaking internet but remain niche, mostly centered on art communities such as anime and furry fandoms).
What other styles of websites exist beyond the English-speaking internet? Does their design reflect a different culture? Are they better in some ways?

I learned the other day on here that Germany’s https://chefkoch.de/, a recipe site, doesn’t have a big equivalent in the English speaking world.
