>>70363i think it's important to note that formal generals on /v/ became a thing before the inline catalog was introduced to the site
according to bibanon /vg/ was created on february 16 2012, but the extension came several months later in september 5
on the other hand, wayback has archived instances of the yotsuba catalog extending back to late 2010, which seemingly starts to get mentioned on desu around 2011, alongside a browser extension that appears to also have appeared around 2010 as well (search "pw: CRUISECONTROL")
the question is how widespread was their usage and to what extent did they contribute to their development
