Yeah, to some of us it does. I'd prefer not to have to swap between a bunch of identical accounts just to be able to go from checking the subs I mod to looking at tech news.

Brooo, we're so getting defederated.

Like, fr, I vote to ban it and this is why. An instance that allows gore and scat is almost definitely only going to be federated with other such instances. That stuff seriously needs its own instance, just for the safety of every other, more standard community. If scat shows in the all feed of another instance just one time, this instance will be instantly dead.

Only problem really is storage. High quality video can fill a hard drive pretty quick.

There was one time I played a glass cannon with wild AC, and I took so much pride in being able to answer a question like this with "actually, it might not, just a sec."

P.S. it hit and my character went down immediately.

I'm gonna vote for the Kirby's Return to Dreamland remake. It's playable in single player, but it was built with one-screen co-op in mind.

I just wish humans could be not awful for once in our history. You know what I've done with ChatGPT? I had it help me convert a big python function into a one-line delta, and got it to write a short horror story about a man eating a can of beans in theater, amongst other silly things. But everyone suffers, and things get harder to make use of because of power-mad scumbags who see everything as a means to gain control of others.

I've been doing a lot of reading about DDG since this dropped and ad blocking, a major privacy factor, was not included, and simply, I don't trust DDG anymore. If they were willing to disregard user privacy once, chances are they'll do it again. Hell, I'd bet they already are.

It's actually in the megathread under tools. Basically, it's a downloader service. Downloads torrents and ddl files to their servers, then you download from there.

That's what sourcing content is for. All the communities I moderate require sources when possible, and proof of best effort when not.

Your suggestion would make hentai communities all but impossible for the exact reasons you already stated.

Linking only to an art page would make the communities functionally useless. People don't come to follow a million links, open a hundred web pages, and sign up for a dozen services in hopes of seeing something they like, they come to see the content, same as in any IRL content community.

Nude photos are cheap and easy to produce, so those communities would never be starved for content, but a hentai community that only allows direct images if they're OC would be dead on arrival.

I've seen people talk about real debrid forever, and to this day, I've never seen any explanation of just what it is. I've looked it up, and all I found was a generic site with a signup, and the best description I've ever seen anyone use for it is "worth the money."

Edit: No, nevermind, I figured out what it was for. What I couldn't figure out that put me off was the price.

I watched that video around when it first came out, really interesting stuff.

I know what you mean, I stopped doing giveaways on SteamGifts because I started having users not mark the games as received, which negatively impacted me directly, and even caught one reselling a game I'd given them.
