All are welcome to ask any questions or issues relating to Pixiv, the many Boorus, and Kemono Archive in this thread.
Could the people running Kemono please ban the AI slop, I'm tired of looking at it flood all the search results
Somewhat related but why is saucenao so bad recently?
>>8844225Tell what I should know about each site. I frequent pixiv daily and go to Kemono.party when I want to check something on fanbox.
>>8844550websites keep blocking scrapersI think Pixiv has had saucenao blocked for 2 years now
>>8844517I like what r34 did. Just have a filter right under the search bar for filtering out all the AI slop.
>>8844550Around the times Epsteins info was leaked, Youtube/Google search became worse, then later they decided no reverse search engine will work anymore that even Yandex was better at some point.
No more new Rinhee stuff uploaded anymore?
>>8844517The admin's abandoned ship months ago, anon. They aren't doin shit.The sites on it's last legs, half of patreon can no longer be scraped because creators swapped to the new layout which Kemono can't read, the ones that haven't switched over no longer have text scraped when their stuff is imported which means links to fileshares no longer show up, and this week it seems fanbox updated their security because nothings been scraped from their site since the 11th.
>>8845660So...time to wait for a new site then
>>8845752because that will magically not get blocked by fanbox and patreon, right
I have nooticed that pixiv changed their image filenames, from the post number + _0 or 1 or 2, to also having a bunch of numbers and letters in it nowuse case?
>>8845774Nothing changes?
>>8845908very weird, it's back to the usual nowI had a few filenames be something like: 1234567_1892u49817y49179241284f8123_p1the stuff between both underscores was new, maybe it was either temporary or a browser glitch
>>8845912I saw it too for a while, there may be some A-B testing going on. It may be a content hash, because artists can reupload images (e.g. when flagged for insufficient censor), and they'd still have the same URL. With the content hash, different images would have distinct URLs.
>>8845199>Hire pajeets>Pajeets do nothing but to hire other pajeets>Reach a critical mass ang get a pajeet CEO>Fire non pajeets employees to make more room for the pajeets>Nothing work anymore and the company sink>The pajeets are now applying for whichever company still existAt this point, all the gafam are in an abbandon ship situation.
>>8845660It's quickly becoming nothing but a discord scraping site, which is hilarious, because folks on older browsers can't even view the content (all you get is errors), and discord itself is trying to sink it's own userbase with the identification crap.
>>8845769"Blocks" will always have workarounds unless you do some insane literal DRMgallery-dl scrapes Fanbox and Patreon just fine. It breaks every now and then as sites make changes, but because the project is active and open source, they get fixed quickly. Kemono's problem is that it is both inactive and effectively closed source.Sadly, most people are either too lazy or too retarded to use gallery-dl and upload themselves.
Will there be sites like E-Hentai, ExHentai, Hitomi, Gelbooru, and Danbooru on Tor/I2P/Hyphanet/Zeronet/Lokinet/GNUnet and et cetera? I assume there are, at least mirrors, or whatnot. Hiddenbooru? But yeah, just need a backup plan in case Big Tech faggots kill the clearnet.
>>8845774I'm getting the same thing too, actually.
>>8846176the vast majority of everyone are consumerssomething like gallery-dl requires the user to be a subscripber/paid access to any services of note to actually pull down that contentsure you can scrape everything available from whatever service you sign up for but you still have the initial outlay of money, and that can get weird and sned up unwanted flags when you're talking about international currency transfers/exchanges or purchases
>>8846103I love how obvious this is yet a certain group of bleeding hearts deny it does
>>8846372E-hentai has been on tor for over a decade. Please look at all the links on the front page of e-hentai.
Did they remove loli tag on gelbooru?
>>8847552Settings -> Options -> Display all site content
>>8844517>people running KemonoIt's literally one zigger who gets butthurt easily.
>>8845660All of this wrong and you're a Redditor to no one's surprise. You need to commit suicide instead of suffering. >>8844517Only one person controls Kemono and he can't program. Initially, he said he didn't want to ban LLM slop because he's lazy. Then he said it'd discourage people from importing. Then he realized LLM slop increased ad revenue. Fun fact, the last time the Kemono owner was last seen was last year in September or something. A month after that, the Patreon importer broke because Patreon changed the layout of the Patreon post and it hasn't been changed since then. Retards will say the Patreon importer broke down recently because they're too retarded to understand that creators had to opt in for the new layout and Patreon made it default recently.
So where are Chinks getting DLsite/DMM/Fanza/Fantia/Fanbox/Patreon from?Most of them on Exhentai are getting the files from other scrapers.
>>8846372Hello, newfag. You seem confused >E-Hentai, ExHentaiSame site. Same server. Same owner. Same everything. >HitomiDownscale mirror for Exhentai.>Gelbooru, and DanbooruMirror for Xitter and Pixiv. They fuck with the files for some reason.
>>8847665How do you know if you don't even know where they're scraping from?
>>8847663>lazily fails to discredit facts and throw shade>immediately goes on to state the exact same facts presented, and use actual reddit spacingCongrats, here's your (You), shitskin.
What the hell is going on with Kemono?
>Kemono dead>Subscribestar now banning loli and furfaggotry>Deviantart now limiting non-paid users to 10 downloads
There's a new scraper site anyone know it? and kemono is officially dead.
>>8847983>>8848065Kemono ain't dead.
>>8848070that's called cope
>>8848079Okay. How’s it “officially dead?” What changed?
>>8847854>insecure newfag rerarded enough to get programmed by troons to think reddit invented paragraphs>calls everyone brownpinoy spotted.
>>8847831>they deny it>one of them claims to be the only Kemono importer>they can't prove it>until recently, they'd only upload after Kemono imported it>no one spends over 500 USD in one month to download a few posts >one of them mentions something about nekomoe, an euphemism for their new source >you are a fucking retard
>>8847983Deviantart always had a ridiculous download limit. >>8847970Dead. The admin doesn't give a shit. He'll shut the site off when ad revenue no longer covers the site bills.He's more incompetent than the pony fucker who owns ExHentai.
>>8844225>upload highres anime screenshot to gelbooru >few days later it gets removed >"ToS violation - anime screenshot" >search "anime_screenshot" tag >45K resultsWhat's wrong with screenshots?
>>8848219They're probably using ExHentai's pony fucker logic.>we no longer allow it>but that doesn't mean we'll stop being lazy to remove the older posts
We're gonna need a new Kemono at this rate.
>>8848219You can't upload simple screenshots. Animated gifs/webms or stitched shots are allowed.
>>8848204>Deviantart always had a ridiculous download limit.There wasn'tI was able to scrape DA with both gallery-dl and WFDownloader, ever since that stupid update both programs conk out and shit errors after 10 imagesNot all DA render autists/screenshotters allow manual downloads and some only insist on using DA's download button
>>8844517I use kemono exclusively for AI slop.It's getting to the point that most of my exhentai use is for AI slop, too.You can complain that it's made by AI and that it's soulless and yadda yadda yadda but at the end of the day, it's the only way I'm getting hundreds of new images from shows that have been forgotten, in art styles that I like.
Anyone know why the fuck I can't just click-drag to save images on Gelbooru anymore? Are they messing with the files now to not give me the full image?
>>8845912I thought that was my Gallery-DL having a stroke, but sounds like you're not even using that.Either way it's clearly a hash of some kind, consisting only of letters a-f or whatever.Though it does not appear to be MD5, CRC-32 or SHA1-512
Are there any sites which scrape Unifans?
>>8846103you're obsessed with indians because they own you bitch ass motherfucker
>>8844517AI slop is better than all the fucking writing-only uploadsCan't search any keyword without getting pages of slop novels because the word I looked up shows up a single time 590 words in
>>8847983>Subscribestar now banning loli Didn't they go back on that?
Some Patreon on Kemono miss there context, just the picture. What happen?
>>8844678That is just bullshit, I scrape Pixiv all the time. I don't know what tool Saucenao uses to scrape, but if Pixiv had blocked scrapers, they would have blocked my severely outdated version of Gallery-DL>>8844550Data increases at an absurd rate, and now that AI is a thing, it's a million times worse. But Saucenao most likely hasn't increased their processing capabilities to match it.It takes quite a bit of processing power to process an image in order to be able to reverse search it, and then consider that they cover not just Pixiv, but basically everything.If anyone wanted to make something that was 100x better for Pixiv where basically everything gets a result, even new stuff, it's not actually that hard to do, as long as you only focus on that and maybe one or two other sites.The only downside is Pixiv is slow as fuck so it takes a lot of time if you're starting out or haven't downloaded in ages.But this also depends on what you're searching. Are you searching with the full image? No problemSearching with a cropped version? Well now they have to calculate a bunch of shit and store that which is 100x more computationally intensive, and AFAIK, Saucenao has never been good for cropped images so they probably didn't build with that in mind.
>>8844225Anyone else been unable to access kemono without using a VPN? When I don't use one I get pic related.
>>8849911Did you remember to go on kemono.cr rather than kemono.su? Try using google DNS incase your ISP is retarded
>>8844225newer stuff has been too dang slow desu
>>8844225the only problem i got with pixiv is that there is no way to pay privately on there. For fantia i can use Monero -> japanese gift card -> pay for Tora coins (internal currency) -> spend tora coins.But Pixiv and pixivFanbox are quite restricted in their accepted payments. Haven't figured out a solid way to detach KYC. all guaranteed methods require either Japanese bank cards, phone number, physically be there (for convenience store cards) etc.
I shamelessly use pixiv to browse for AI art of my favorite characters
>>8844225Any idea why Gelbooru's URLs don't work. It's not even just 4chan. I can't use them anywhere I've tried.
>>8850128Maybe explain what the fuck you mean by "don't work". Can't use anywhere? URLs you put in your browser, not many places to try them, wtf does it have to do with 4chan?And Gelbooru's URLs? You mean the SITE isn't working? Fix your brain damage then ask the question again.
>>8850132Normally you can upload a file (png, jpg, gif) etc here directly from a site by posting the URL of a file, instead of selecting a file from your PC. This doesn't work with Gelbooru anymore. I tried other chans, like Capybarachan and this also doesn't work there anymore. I also can no longer use the URL to upload on ezgif.com and it will not even show an error. It will like I never uploaded anything in the first place.
>>8850001>But Pixiv and pixivFanbox are quite restricted in their accepted payments.That's a shame. I was thinking of giving in and paying to see Tadd's new pages because I'm that desperate. I guess I've to go back hoping for kemono to get fixed
Are there any sites that aren't run by complete fucking retards? I can't make an account on gelbooru (registration is closed), danbooru uploads rely entirely on a group of pedantic fucking morons, rule34.xxx is also run by a group of mongoloids with no objective standards or rule enforcement. Meanwhile AI slop is infesting everything. What's the fucking solution here if you want to upload art?
>>8850145that's not a function of 4chan, must be one of your extensions and that's what's broken
>>8850373It appears that running a website either requires being a retard or the experience of doing so turns you into one
>>8849924>Did you remember to go on kemono.cryes>Try using google DNSTried that before, didn't work
>>8850430>that's not a function of 4chanI just posted a pic from another thread in /h/ using said pic's URL.
>>8850430>>8850651Also it's unlikely to be an extension problem. I didn't add, remove, or change the settings of any around the time the problem started happening, I tried without them and nothing changed and this only for Gelbooru files.
>>8850651>>88506534chan literally does not embed URLs by default. If it does on your end, it's because you have something like 4ChanX installed.So if something broke, it's an extension issue.>I didn't add, remove, or change the settings of any around the time the problem started happeningDoesn't matter, shit breaks all the time whether you like it or not. Either from extension updating or 4chan changing something that requires extension to update.>>8850522Try again then, maybe you didn't set up DNS correctly. Or if your browser has it, use the built in free VPN if you're just doing light browsing on kemono, otherwise buy a VPS and set up a VPN on it for super cheap.
Well, it's now been 2 (3 for some) days since the last patreon scrape, think it's safe to say Kemono is officially just a discord site now...
>>8850660> it's because you have something like 4ChanX installed.I don’t.>>I didn't add, remove, or change the settings of any around the time the problem started happening>Doesn't matter, shit breaks all the time whether you like it or not. Either from extension updating or 4chan changing something that requires extension to update.…Read the rest of my previous reply.
>>8847983Atleast you can still download shit from kemono. Coomer is beyond dead, the vast majority of the files are can't even be streamed, let alone downloaded.
>>88507094Chan literally does not allow you to upload by URL. If you were able to, it's due to an extension like 4ChanX. Vanilla 4chan experience only has an upload button that allows you to put an actual FILE that's on your clipboard or a FILE stored on your PC. Not an URL.So yes, it IS because of an extension you have, which is now broken for Gelbooru.
>>8850823>If you were able to, it's due to an extension like 4ChanX.Well, I am able to and I don't use 4ChanX or anything like that.>Vanilla 4chan experience only has an upload button that allows you to put an actual FILE that's on your clipboard or a FILE stored on your PC.>Not an URL.Anon, it is through the upload button that I do it. if you click the upload button and instead of choosing a file from your PC you paste the URL of an appropriate online file, as if it’s a file name , you can post it, without the need of any extention. It is that simple.
