just saw this post on twitter, reposting for a heads up if anyone anyone feels the need to save some things.
>fringe contentFFS, that could mean anything.
>>8903538Gelbooru died the second they allowed westslop artists like Afrobull
>>8903543I'm pretty sure they mean stuff locked behind the "Display all site content" checkbox in settingsSo lolisho is the big one
>>8903543>>8903554I think that's it, the option mentions "fringe results" and enabling it gives you a "fringeBenefits=yup" cookie.Bestiality is locked behind that too and I'm not sure what else.
>>8903538post a link to the tweet:https://xcancel.com/gelbooru/status/2069889788908331451
>>8903557i think gore is locked behind that too.
Did something change with Gallery-DL and gelbooru? I thought it worked without any fuss, but now it wants an api-key and user-id, and I don't know what that is or how to give it.
>>8903569If you're signed in, go to Settings then Options, and the API access credentials (API key and User ID) are at the bottom of that page.https://gelbooru.com/index.php?page=account&s=options
>>8903588Cool, thanks. How do I use that with Gallery-DL?
>>8903594gallery-dl -o api-key=YOURKEYHERE -o user-id=YOURUSERID "https://gelbooru.com/index.php?page=post&s=list&tags=gay_sex_with_hats_on"
>>8903604Thanks, friend.
>>8903604Sorry to use this as Gallery-DL tech support, but it's failing to download every other image. Like, almost exactly. Successful DL, then a 404, then failed to download, repeat. What's this about?
>>8903627I'm not sure, unfortunately I'm not an expert with it either. The couple of tests I ran earlier seemed to work fine. If it was just trying to download them too fast I'd think it would be another kind of error. There's options to wait some amount of time between downloads in case that helps
>>8903635It's worth a try, it worked fine for the first . What's the option?
>>8903546They never had rules against Western art, just Western styled art.
>>8903636https://github.com/mikf/gallery-dl/blob/master/docs/options.mdUnder sleep options. The other ones could be useful to look through too.By the way, I've been using Hydrus Network to download stuff instead because it imports all the tags with the images, but it seems to go a lot more slowly than gallery-dl. It can be a bit of work to figure out too though if you're new too it and there's plenty of settings I haven't messed with yet
>>8903554>>8903557>>8903538Based, fuck pedotroons and may every other site follow suit.
>>8903644First they came for the Lolita ArtAnd I did not speak outBecause I was not a Lolita Art enjoyerThen they came for the Feral ArtAnd I did not speak outBecause I was not a Feral Art enjoyerThen they came for the Feet ArtAnd I did not speak outBecause I was not a Feet Art enjoyerThen they came for the Handholding ArtAnd I did not speak outBecause I was not a Handholding Art enjoyerThen they came for the art i likedAnd there was no one leftTo speak out for me
>>8903538he deserves to be raked over coals for vagueposting desunot happy about it, but it will be hard to have sympathy for him if his site goes up in flames
>>8903538Sad if true, but I mainly use sankaku anyway.
Gotta love living in a free society
>>8903666someone in the comments said it was a warrent canary"A warrant canary is a method by which a communications service provider aims to implicitly inform its users that the provider has been served with a government subpoena despite legal prohibitions on revealing the existence of the subpoena."
It is almost certainly that his ad provider is cucking him because of loli/etc and he will capitulate under the guise of something else.
>>8903639They don't seem to have any rules against Western style art either. Unlike Danbooru, that is.
>>8903543You can safely assume it's anything that the payment processors usually go after.
>>8903686It's a free site, I don't see what the payment processors would have to do with thisI think these anons are closer to the mark >>8903681 >>8903554 >>8903557
>>8903674I saw that too, but I think it's more likely this >>8903681>>8903686which is potentially everything(by design)
on a side note, what's the best way to discover new hentai anime aside from random torrents on the horny cat?
So is there a torrent for the content that's at risk of being purged or just a torrent of the site content?
>>8903543Save them up
>>8903702>or just a torrent of the site content?I don't even know how big that would be.
>>8903763I assume it wouldn't be huge I mean its only the content at risk of purge not the entire site? I was imagining at most a few TBs? I mean it can't be much bigger than some of the fakku rips that circulated when stuff got purged from ex.
>>8903554like all the furry stuff thenwhich is the majority of the digimon and pokemon tag
>>8903805No lmao, even danbooru allows you to see furry porn without a premium account and they themselves haven't sent any warning like gelbooru has, meaning advertisers don't care about it. It's 100% loli, the same reason why 4chan only allows loli in 2 boards.
Do I need a sleep timer for using one of these scripts to download from gelbooru? I don't want to get banned.
gelbooru is mostly instathot of cosplayers posts these days, jav posting is vague as fuck, and its all blue archive or gatcha shit mmd porn flooding the video catalog.though is not worse than sankaku is rn.
>>8903993I don't care what people are posting now, there's a ton of stuff on Gelbooru that has been deleted from its original Pixiv or Twitter source, stuff that won't exist at all any more if it gets deleted
>>8903993The JAV shit is retarded and should have always had its own separate booru, but >>8904006 what this anon said is true. All the boorus and sites with the same core are a goldmine for deleted twitter, bluesky, misskey, pixiv, nijie, arcalive, etc. posts. Basically most social pages you can think of that artists post on, there's a solid chance you can find at least one picture niggas deleted.The AIcancer spam on sankaku is truly unfortunate and I hate it so much, but it would suck if the site as a whole went down because there'd be so much lost media that isn't AIdogshit as a result. Same deal with gelbooru, the JAV shit that often goes untagged is annoying as fuck on the """""anime art & hentai gallery""""", but if the site cucks to censorship that's annoying.
>>8903763>>8903788Very rough estimation from numbers gives~100Gb of loli~30Gb of shota~2Gb of guro Nothing really. I would ignore animated tag as well. I don't think anything else can be in danger. I'm not able to do it right now though. If someone from the board can scrap it you should do it asap.
>>8904058Isn't rape also a "fringe" tag?
>>8904111Yup.
>>8904058Is it seriously that small? You gotta be kidding. How did you come to that number? And what about if you add the other fringe tags?
>>8904058I could maybe do that, but it’d be without tags. Just a giant mass of images.
>>8904058>>8904122I think it's a lot more than that. I downloaded a few thousand and got an average of 2.7 MB per file and there's hundreds of thousands of them. Around 2TB might be closer to reality but I don't know all of the fringe tags. It'd be a bit smaller without animations, but why would you leave them out?
>>8904111lots of sites have been hiding rape and incest lately, e-hentai notably too.
>>8904173Oh wow you're right. I think incest was panda'd long long ago but now even rape?When did that happen?
>>8904177Recently, a couple months ago. >>8903659 isn’t just some cute poem, it’s extremely real.
>>8904177Incest used to be fjorded back in the day, but it hadn't been for a while until recently again, along with rape.
Is there a way to download an entire tag with Gallery-DL while also sorting the images by artist?
>>8903569>>8903588This is the same reason saucenao can't be used on gelbooru anymore, isn't it? Any chance that'll be fixed? Is saucenao still being maintained? Is Xamayon still alive?
>Losing the entire rape and bestiality tags.Come on man I don't have anything else in my life except porn. It's not even real people I'm not hurting anyone
>>8904159one issue is all of these 50mb PNGs
>>8904180>>8904181Thanks. Interesting.
>>8903538Huh, so the time spent on writing that Python script that gets the tags of the images I saved locally and uploads them to Shimmie2 running on my PC wasn't wasted.
if someone manages to download all the stuff please make a torrent or something
>YOU WILL JACK OFF TO THE ONLY FANS>YOU WILL PAY THE WHORE TO DANCE>YOU WILL ENJOY IT grim times we're in
Are they deleting the entire images or just removing the tags from them?Either this shit is always gay.
>>8904609I imagine they'll do what e6 did, which is remove access to the flagged posts for everyone except staff. It allows potential restoration down the road.If he does cuck, I'm curious how he'll navigate the inconsistent tagging minefield. I don't see a way where he can bend the knee that doesn't involve effectively torching the site.
>>8904210Please respond. I can’t do much archiving without that.
So does anyone know how much time there is before they purge or restrict it? They have their own Discord (which I can't use due to face scan / ID requirements), is anyone in the know? Are we talking 3 days? 14 days? 1 month?
>>8905343It might be that nothing happens at all. The gelbooru owner is a schizo who makes big deals about nothing all the time
>>8905343how do I access the discord? i'll look around.
