Gelbooru

About Gelbooru.com:

Gelbooru is a large site with over 9m+ monthly visitors. It uses a template that is well-known in the hentai niche - it’s called imageboard. It’s basically search engine on hentai images (and videos). Gelbooru has over 1.5m indexed pages in Google, which indicated the amount of content they have. This is one of the biggest imageboard hentai sites out there.

Design and usability:

The layout of the site is the same as other imageboard websites, there isn’t much to change. I appreciate that there are no ads right in the content. There are just a few banners under and above the posts grid. And some annoying popups, of course. On imageboard sites, everything revolves around tags. There are tags for posts, metadata, characters, artists, and so on. You just need to find out how to use all of these, and you will learn to filter only the best content for you.

Gallery:

There is actually no gallery, it’s more about individual images than sets of them. You can click the image thumbnail and go to an image post. There are not many options on the post page. You can see an image in original size, you can see some comments under the image, and in the left sidebar, there are information about a post like date posted, artist, image size, and tags.

Content:

Well, I guess you can never browse through all the content they have. But because of the tags, you can filter out content that suits you best. You can also click “Tags” section in the main menu to search and browse all the tags. In terms of content type, there are mostly images, you can find some videos too, but these are not common on these type of sites. You can find almost any kink here. Favorite tags on Gelbooru are pokemon, loli, rape, futanari, rwby, shota, bulma, or konosuba.

Mobile version:

The good thing is that Gelbooru.com has a mobile version. If you visited the desktop version, you could think that a site like this won’t have a mobile version at all. When you visit a list of posts, it looks a little disordered (there are different spaces on the left and right side). But when you click the thumbnail and get to an image post, there is everything right. It actually looks pretty good. Maybe you noticed that there are two hamburger styled menus. The blue one is the main menu, while the grey one is a submenu.

Community:

The community is definitely there. If you want to join some conversation, join their Discord (11.500 members). You can find their Discord when clicking “Posts” in the main menu, and then “Discord” in the gray submenu. If you want to join in some conversation about hentai images, you should check the comments section. You can find it in the main menu like “Comments”, obviously. There are posts sorted by the newest comments. You can also see posts thumbnail and previous comments too.

Final words:

Gelbooru.com is one of the biggest hentai imageboard sites in the world, actually #2289 most visited site in the world. They have a huge amount of content in many different niches (almost all of them). Even I didn’t believe that they have a good mobile version of the site. And except annoying popunder, there are few ads. I recommend this site to all those who are into images, and not into manga or hentai videos because there are better sites for these.

Advantages:

• A huge amount of content
• Big community (11k+ Discord members)
• All kind of kinks

Disadvantages:

• Annoying popunders
