Close and past contenders are: the sticky when the Ukraine war had just dropped, with 88,034 replies;[1] the sticky for the 2016 presidential election results with 73,171 replies;[1] the sticky in 2019 about SadPanda closing down with 74,553 replies,[2] with which actually surpassed the 2016 election sticky.

Bibliography and methodology

4plebs.org provides a "largest threads" query under a /statistics/ API endpoint.[1][3] The /statistics/ endpoint is an original extension to the FoolFuuka API (no other archive websites currently have it or equivalent feature (correction archived.moe and other archives that are still alive today had a similar page in 2019 but not anymore) so the boards which 4plebs archives are the only 4chan boards for which the longest thread is known as of September 2022.
