  • Where are the best sites/things to find english manga books?

    Jump

  • If you want fan translated chapters - Mangadex

    for official translations - Mangasee

    for both - Comick

    if you want to download them you can either use tools like tachiyomi, hakuneko or fdm2 that allows you to ddl from most major sites or use nyaa if you are comfortable with torrenting.

  • It depended on how you used reddit. They were extremely fast, had no ads, trackers or javascript so were extremely privacy friendly. But they were read only so you couldn't engage with the reddit content through them.

  • Do you consider AI art “OC” ?

    Jump

  • It's an interesting thing to ponder and my opinion is that like many other things in life something being 'OC' is a spectrum rather than a binary thing.

    If I apply a B&W filter on an image is that OC? Obviously not

    But what if I make an artwork that's formed by hundreds of smaller artworks, like this example? This definitely deserves the OC tag

    AI art is also somewhere in that spectrum and even then it changes depending on how AI was used to make the art. Each person has a different line on the spectrum where things transition from non OC to OC, so the answer to this would be different for everyone.

  • Is anyone else seeing swear words censored in comments?

    Jump

  • Instance admins can setup a slur filter for their instance, which automatically removes that word from ever appearing on that particular instance.

  • How to rename and organize CBR/CBZ comics?

    Jump

  • If you want some method of making all filenames have same format, use advanced renamer

    If you want something to automatically fetch metadata, use calibre or YAClibrary.

  • Yea some countries have strict piracy laws, that's why using a VPN and following basic privacy becomes necessary while pirating.

  • Defederation Policy

    Jump

  • This is probably outdated since feddit federates with us, I even joined some of their communities.

  • why lemmy.fmhy.ml was down for a day and the changes made after that

    Jump

  • Right now it's not even mastodon compatible let alone lemmy. There are some arguments on how federating with them will allow people to migrate to a more privacy respecting instance and still view threads content, and some users say this will allow them to still communicate with their friends who don't want to switch away from threads.

    So while we do lean towards defederating from it, it's some months away before we need to actually decide and till then we are simply listening to and discussing both sides of the argument.

  • Oh we had censored some words like removed and removed since we got ad posts in the beginning of instance, it seems that had some negative effects. we'll remove those filters now, thanks for catching that error.

    Saw my message just says removed lol, pretty good example of unintended consequences.

  • Meta will kill small instances! Please read.

    Jump

  • users won't want to use an instance that can't view content from threads (since that where's most content would be), but they'll be much more open to joining an open source instance that federated and views stuff from there as well.

  • looking at the app it seems it's launched with just local content feed with a promise of being mastodon compatible in the future. I guess specifically to generate some unqiue content so people join.

  • I'm totally willing to discuss my thoughts since it seems I'm in the minority on this threads mania-

    Once Threads launches it'll obviously have a lot more users than the whole fediverse combined, maybe even 90% of all users. Now let's say some instances with barely 1-2% users and small content feed defederate from it. Do people think a new user who does not care about things like open source or privacy will join the niche instance? No, people will go where the content is. Big social media giants will jump on fediverse bandwagon and instances who dont fetch their data will become extremely niche communtites (some might like that but it's not good for overall fediverse health).

    Instead let's say we keep federated with threads, and make posts like how YSK: other instances don't track your data, other instances are free from corpo greed, other instances are run by normal people etc etc and make users aware and let them naturally migrate. Ideally, meta will bring the eyeballs which we can help to make fediverse as a whole grow.

    imo it's naive to think that us 100k users defederating will put even a dent on threads. Insta tik-tok people will join the new trendy social media and generate content. The only solution is to make people constantly aware that better alternatives to view the same content exist.
