I was not expecting to get this many users, ever. I registered the domain on a whim, and installed vichan just as quick. On September 21st, Soot wrote in a blog post that he launched the board 'as a meme.' On September 2020, Soot announced the launch in /qa/, originally a 'questions and answers' 4chan board at that time hijacked and centered around posting Soyjaks (announcement post shown below). On September 19th, 2020, 4chan user Soot launched soyjak.party (also redirected to from basedjak.party), a joke imageboard that invited users to post Soyjak images in every thread.
