Is there any reason to still use boorus?
>>51290730Archiving for when an artist account gets nuked by TOS/DMCA or decides to self nuke all their own content.
>>51290730Easier filtering.
>>51290742>decides to self nuke all their own content.This is unpredictable, since we can't archive every artist on pixiv on these boorus>>51290745It depends on the booru
>>51290791You should be only using gelbooru and bending over backwards to support it before you're only left with the likes of sankaku app, rule34, and e621.
>>51290730>mountains of art never archived anywhere else because it was hosted on author's personal blog that died in 2009>mountains of art never archived anywhere else because it was hosted on author's pixiv that they nuked in any point after pixiv was made>pixiv is a shit website that sucks to use>twitter is a shit brainrot website I refuse to use>that also sued xcancelBoorus are the only reliable way of finding anything as far as I'm concerned.
>>51290730Boorus are literally just archival sites.
>>51290817>pixiv is a shit website that sucks to useThere is a mirror site for that>twitter is a shit brainrot website I refuse to use>that also sued xcancelThere are other nitter instances
>>512907301. It's useful to find sources.2. You can get the full resolution versions of art posted on Pixiv without having to create an account.
>>51290730Danbooru ended being crucial in development of all the anime girl AI generators so intentionally or not they made internet just 9999% shittier.Generally, using Pixiv and Xitter is nicer. You have some contact with the artist and don't need to wait for CunnyLicker67 or some other schitzo to upload their things. But both Pixiv and Xitter are flooded with slop and filtering it is kinda of annoying.Danbooru has the paid loli/shota tags and limited search for free user. I'm not paying Albert 20$ for something that artist uploaded on their pixiv/twitter/website for free.Gelbooru's admin is a genuine schizo that every other month has a nuclear meltdown and is ready to close website and kill himself. He also was ready to jump the AI-hype and flood his website with schlop thill people actually explained him that the amount of this shit will probably kill the website due to sheer volume. People also post there random ass irl porn and other garbage and there's little to no moderation.Sankaku Complex is pure, unadulterated garbage. Same with lol R34.
>>51290969>People also post there random ass irl porn and other garbage and there's little to no moderation.Some camwhores are actually sponsors and get uploaded because. Cosplayers fit but I dunno why random jav gets uploaded.
>>51290791>we can't archive every artist on pixivNot every artist of Pixiv needs to be preserved, are you crazy.>>51290813Dont even imply that.
>>51291034>Dont even imply that.Don't run from reality. Things are fucking bad and they're not getting better.
>>51290978>Some camwhores are actually sponsors and get uploaded becauseI don't like it either, especially that vtumor who hogs the front page at like noon every day or something, but open pongldr endorsement is based.
>>51290969>this archival method is simple and intuitive and has been instrumental in preserving and identifying art >but some people misused it, so it's bad and evilMoron. Also, it's not anime image gen that's ruining the internet. SD would've existed without danbooru. LLMs are what's actually making the internet unusable. Your hate's aim sucks.
>PixivRequires account creation, requires changing location, and artists occasionally remove stuff they upload or delete their whole accounts.>TwitterRequires account creation and tying your account to a mobile phone number now.>But there are workarounds!Yeah, inconsistent ones that can stop working at any time.If this is anything other than a bait thread you're fucking retarded.
>>51291066SHUT UP
>>51290742This. Danbooru even archives deleted Vocaloid songs
>>51290742If the artist decides that he doesn't want his work archived, then that should be respected.
>>51290730We need more people using boorus and scouring small art sites and personal homepages before its too late.
>>51291229The fuck? No! What, am I supposed to demolish my house if the architect decides he doesn't like it anymore, too? Or burn my old books because the author thinks they suck now?
>>51291316You aren't entitled to the works posted online.
>>51291319???They're posted for free. You can go and view and download them at any time. There's no entitlement to speak of.
>>51291320The author isn't required to post his works, he does it out of his own choice.And keep in mind that many artists are against reposting and downloading of their works, the reason why you're even allowed download them is because you can't really protect your site against that.
>>51291326>The author isn't required to post his worksIf he doesn't, then they won't be available to download, then they won't get archived. Where does entitlement come into this?
>>51291340Just because someone posts something online doesn't make you entitled to do whatever you want with it.
>>51290969Watching Sankaku decay was painful because they used to one up Danbooru and show its paid stuff for free.
>>51290730Is there any reason to use Twitter?>>51291082Post more Kirino.
personally i dont see any reason ever to use twatter for anime pics because if they arent reposted to boorus they most likely are not worth of your time>>51291326take your meds
>>51290730Yes if you want to look for art. Not if you are an artist seeking to upload it somewhere. And that's kind of a stupid question because boorus makes it easier to find both the arts AND the sources. For artists it's better to use social medias and pixiv because of interaction with other users and the traction they can gain.
>>51290742This too. It's really fucking annoying when an artist decides to just nuke everything, thankfully their art can still be found on boorus and sadpanda galleries
>>51291229Your idealist faggots can go fuck yourselves.
>>51291360What? I'm not demanding access to the artists' accounts and hard drives and the files they post. If they put something up, that's theirs to take down or whatever. But my own copy is my own copy. I'm not giving them access to my accounts and hard drives.
kuso thread
>>51291733But it's not "your copy", you have no right to it.
>>51290730I dont understand the picThe whole point of boorus is to compile art from other sites for better tagging and sorting
>>51291934damn that's crazy, anyway
>>51291967ok, you have no standards for yourself and?
>>51291229If the artist didn't want their work archived they shouldn't have fucking made it.
>>51290817ThisPlus>Careful, mostly homogenous, detailed, monolingual, community tagging system.Want to find out if hungry clicker drew a certain character on twitter? Have fun sifting through hundreds of untagged, uncategorized, zero text posts in a single file line.
>>51292256Sure, because everything that has ever been made has been and has deserved to be archived
>>51292368That's right.
>>51291984>standards>/jp/pick one
>>51290730If you're vanilla they're great but the second you start getting into anything remotely kinky that's where they go to shit. I'm a fatfag, which is barely kinky by itself, and so many many sexy fat chicks are blanket unapproved by Danbooru them for "low quality" when a generic t&a girl would be handwaved
>>51290730I still make ample use of Danbooru. People are pretty good about tagging there and the approval system at least helps filter out the worst of the worst when it comes to pics. I've also found some decent artists through there and at least they ban AI art (or at least try to).I still don't think Pixiv is too bad. Lot of junk, but there's enough decent art there to make my account worthwhile and you can (try to) filter out AI art too. I find looking for art on Twitter pretty much a waste of time though.
>>51290730Boorus are more convenient to navigate and filter through than Pixiv is and especially Twitter where that's so functionally nonexistent that there shouldn't be any comparison.
>>51290730a backup of sorts I guess, some translations toobut damn is it my idea or everyone now complies with DMCA or whenever an artist gets pissy because his paywalled shit is on a booru/archiver?its a damn piracy site and now there's a copyright tag in most of themabsolutely gay
>>51293015>barely kinky by itselfIt's repulsive and littered with expansion fetish which is even more repulsive.
>>51291984>Welcome to /jp/, how can I help you?>Yeah, hi, we're here for so much moralfagging, it's a crime...
>>51290730I know countless good artists who deleted themselves from the internet. Only boorus preserve them
>>51293417Who are you quoting?
>>51293015most fatfag art is extremely low quality so danbooru is right to reject it
>>51290730The reason to use boorus is that on twitter I cant search:Loli anal rape -scat -futanari -yuri
>>51293015>>51294653In all fairness, their jannies have very odd standards for quality. Sometimes old oekaki art is accepted because it's grandfathered in by all the art similar to it that was uploaded when it was drawn, sometimes it isn't while current westoid art of equal or lesser quality is. Sometimes something will get approved and then years later it'll be deleted because whatever mod with a stick up their ass will decide it's a "nonsense, super-imposed .gif" and their website is SERIOUS BUSINESS.
X is shit because I only want to see art, not AI slop or shitty posts about arist's life, I don't care about you and what you ate, I only care about your art faggot.
>>51294626The scene from the movie in picrel
>>51294626At this point asking this is a way bigger newfag tell than greentexting without quoting something. You have other examples of people doing exactly that in this thread that you didn't bother to question.
>>51295260More like its a newfag tell to be upset at an ancient style of shitpost
I've been trying to organize my porn lately so I'm gonna ask a bunch of random shit here:>I know Rule34.xxx blocks loli, shota, bestiality scat etc and similar tags if you're not signed up, apparently, but does that actually enable you to view more uploads with that content, or does it merely allow you to search and see those tags, not otherwise hidden uploads?>Also for Rule34.xxx, is there any way to do boolean searches with tags? Even just a simple way to specify I want X OR Y tag would be a huge help. Also, why the fuck do they not alias their tags almost ever? There's like 10 different tags that will mean the same thing yet they're separated, meanwhile they alias "futanarization" to just give you the results for "Futanari" in general for some godforsaken reason and told people to use "futa transformation" instead per their wiki, instead of just aliasing futanarization to futa transformation to begin with? What's their deal? >I heard that while ATF now removes most 3d animated uploads from the booru, there's still places on the forums to share those images. Where would that be? (Note: I have not used ATF in like 15 years so maybe it's an obvious section, if so I apologize) >Does Sankaku also not allow most 3d animations anymore of loli/shota content? Also, do you still need not just an account to view it, but also a certain amount of forum posts and user points and shit? What's the fastest way to get those?>Are there any tools to mass-rip images and content from Baraag, 8ch boards, Aryion, Twitter and Sankaku? I know Grabber CAN be set up to work with Sankaku but it's apparently a massive pain. And with Twitter, I know of some tools that can, but last time I tried them my twitter accounts almost got suspended, even if I set the download speed low and added multiple seconds of delay between fetches. Lastly I know gallery-dl can probably do ALL of those, but I struggle with command line tools so unless an anon here is kind enough to help me set commands/scripts up, that's probably not an option>On e-/exhentai/sadpanda, is there a way to view how many times and when a given gallery was updated, and/or what content or metadata within or about the gallery was changed/? The torrent list will tell you if there's not an up-to-date torrent since the last gallery update, but I'm not seeing how I can tell when that was or what was altered.>Also for sadpanda/exhentai, what's the status on account deletion? It seems like they're still refusing to allow it, but I came across one post implying you can if your user level is high enough. Is that true? If not, is there anything preventing me from just making a new account and gifting all my points to that new account and abandoning the old one?>I found this site: https://app.rule34.dev which allows you to search acrosss rule34.xxx, pixiv, gelbooru, e621 etc all at once. Are there any other cross-booru sites like this I should know about?>I see barely any uploads on rule34.xxx featuring AI generated voice stuff from vtubers and the like. Is there another place people are sharing those? >>51290969Twitter isn't nicer then anything because it's search sucks ass and there's no way to view the entirety of a user's uploads, you can only view the past 1000 most recent tweets, retweets, media posts, etc each>>51290948>There is a mirror site for thatwhich?>>51293015>>51293067Is there any reason to use danbooru over gelbooru and pixiv? Does it have uploads those don't?
>>51295479The only thing Danbooru has is users who give a fuck so you'll see contextual text the author wrote on the original site under pics, easier to navigate parent/child posts and groups of pics that form a comic, more likely to have translations and an actual wiki with entries. It does have better image sorting operations in the search bar, but only if you sign up so you can use more than 2 tags and also bother to read readmes/faqs.
>>51295479>Does Sankaku also not allow most 3d animations anymore of loli/shota content? Sure doesn't seem like it, they even have tags for it. You have to have an account though. And I assume you mean the ones of like TLoU and Resident Evil and Pragmata and ugly shit like that, because anime sure as fuck isn't removed.>Also, do you still need not just an account to view it, but also a certain amount of forum posts and user points and shit? What's the fastest way to get those?Sounds like exhentai.
>>51295542>Sounds like exhentai.Unless i'm misremembering, I don't think you need any points or forum posts to have the full functionality of exhentai, aside from like for the site's social features (who gives a fuck) and for rar/zip downloads of galleries. Wheras I thought I heard with Sankaku, you needed points or a certain amount of forum posts just to even view certain tags or something like that.
Actually looking at art on Twitter is one of the most miserable experiences you can have online. That is, when the site decides to work and actually loads the images on a profile. Enjoy looking through 2000 completely untagged images of food before being arbitrarily cut off from seeing anything older than a few years.
>>51296192That's the problem mostly with jap artists than the platform itself. For me the biggest problem with shitter is the feed, which will sometimes recommend good art and artists for you once in a while and then show you a bunch of retarded shit political takes from niggers you don't care about and unfunny memes.
>>51296192This is assuming that your timeline doesn't refresh on you, leaving you no time to even like or bookmark the post. Arguably one of the most annoying things I have ever experienced, hence why I tend to not use Twitter as often anymore, especially on mobile. I've attempted to disable it, but it just sneaks up behind me and fucks me over.
>>51294689In line with this, I will say that while Ragathol's art is fucking horrible-looking and has not improved whatsoever in the like 26 years he's been constantly drawing, honestly I do think it has a place on the boorus as a kind of time capsule to a very specific window of western wanime art from the early 2000s that as I said has some how not changed in the slightest since. Any other westoid garbage like his should be shitcanned though.
>>51290730I'll be dead before I use xitter>>51290969'you post on the same website as epstein ergo you're a kid trafficker'-ass reasoning
>>51290730Twitter is complete trash for actually finding stuff, and I have no idea why it's become the go-to for artists uploading their work.
>>51290813>>51291460I used to use Idol Complex (3D part of Sankaku) a lot and it's so fucking shit now. Why even make a website that you can't save images or videos from?Gelbooru is decent from a user standpoint as long as you are logged in with a free account.I'll never fucking use twitter. It's an awful website to use if you just want to look at things and nobody has anything of value to say on it.
>>51290730>just now find out that Ayu has been discovered by zoomer normalfags>she was ofc assumed to be pedo bait, called "diddy faps">is adopted by modern moeblob artists to "re-appropriate" her and "take her back" from lolicons that she was not made for to begin with as a way of owning them>learn all this because I made a joke about zoomers not knowing what "uguu~" isNo I am not fucking using Twitter.Shame too because the marker art is cute.
It's funny and sad how much DeviantArt and Tumblr had fallen out, because even after all the bad decisions that Twitter makes, NOBODY wants to go back to those sites
>>51297456In case of DA it's their own fault for shooting themselves in the foot by implementing things that no one wanted.
>>51291485No.
>>51296781I didn't need to know this.
>>51298100It pissed me off so now I have to make it everyone's problem.In a way it's a return to form with the uguu meme so at least it's appropriate.On the other, it's a horrible perversion of something sacred from when I was in high school and would use it as a reprieve from probably the same retards appropriating it. Does not make it okay though.
>>51297456Porn ban nuked tumblr from relevance
What's wrong with Sankaku Complex? Besides the site shitting itself if you decide to open 3 tabs at the same timeI'd say ATFBooru is great but it probably has a much smaller pool compared to other boorus
>>51296781I fucking hate zoomies and alphies so much does their generation not have any waifus?
>>51303264No they have dommy mommies instead
>>51302286>What's wrong with Sankaku ComplexToo many bars and tabs on the old site advertising stuff on the site no one cares about, and the newer site is just shitty. Limited to 2 tags that aren't purely safe if you don't pay and there's not much logic to what isn't marked safe. Some characters or series aren't safe and take up a tag space. It also shits itself it you search certain things without other modifiers but that might just be another gimmick to get you to pay. Videos seem broken a lot too.
>>51303264>I fucking hate zoomies and alphies so muchlol imagine seething over a stupid meme
>>51303264it's called yumeshipping now
>>51303328can confirm, the other day I was talking to my sister about my waifu and she told me that I have more in common with tumblr self shippers than I know.What the fuck, it is not that hard a concept to grasp.
>>51290730I like uplooooooooding
What happened to nozomi.la? Site doesn't load and it got a 404 error yesterday and today
>>51290730Bluesky or GTFO
>>51290730Better tagging and easier to find old work. Seriously, I use pixiv all the time and the tagging system used by the artists makes is awful to search for anything. Twitter is also a pain in the ass to scroll back years looking for a specific piece of art. On A *booru you can search by tag, or move by pages to go back further and further in time easily.
>>51291360actually it does
>>51302286Sankaku has a rampant quality problem, tries to hard to be some news tabloid, and you're giving it more credit than it deserves. It'll shit itself randomly if you try to search more than 2 tags half the time. God forbid you try to use negative tags to filter out some retard uploading 10 pages worth of a shitty doujin or the retard that uploaded them failed to use a unifying tag to apply said negative tag filter.>>51303264Sadly, waifu is just a co-opted word that means "anime girl" now.
>>51310335>Sadly, waifu is just a co-opted word that means "anime girl" now.Normies did the exact same thing to "fap."
>>51302286Paywalling content (including pirated one), rampant AI slop infestation, zero quality control, most uploaders are just brain-dead brownoids that can't tag their shit properly, fucking ads that can give your PC aids if you click into them by accident, lame-ass pseudopolitical "news" slop as side gig...It's like the early 2010s porn websites but for anime.
>>51290730archives. you never never know when that artist abandons their entire stock and gets wiped off the face of the earth.
>>51311937endless AI slop will destroy everything at this point. DA used to be excellent for art achives before the slop overtook everything.
>>51291485there are artists that take commissions through twitter (skeb) but NOT pixiv even if they upload their art to both sites already. there's probably some artists that can only be found on twitter and not pixiv and the boorus, but that number is not big enough for me to warrant subjecting myself to twitter>>51290817pixiv is not a shit website. what do you have against it? the gripe i have with it is that the tagging system is limited but it's still better than paheal's tagging system
>>51314651*only gripe
>>51302286that site was the best for eastern artists and the best, tolerable western artists because of how complete its catalogue was....like a decade ago. then it shit the bed with its new site and the constant pushing against adblock and low tier users.between that, its dive into AI, and its embarrassing news articles , anyone with dignity left for gelbooru or a combo of other boorus.
>>51302286it was good until I saw some of my favorites get paywalled. haven't looked back since.
>>51314268At least when everyone gives up, it'll undergo further refining until it stops being slop. Then real AI will kill it when we can make actual thinking programs with the concept of soul programmed in.
>>51290730the experience saving art from a japanese artist's twitter:>food/drink photos>animal/car photos>screenshots from anime scenes that blend in with the artist's artstyle>gacha pulls, character lines or menus>switch/ps5 screenshots>reaction gifs/videos>manga panels or japanese injokes>the mandatory "i joined comiket, and here's my booth" pics>cropped images of nothing but japanese textEVERY FUCKING TIME
>>51319746Twitter is for blogging what did you expect?
>>51290730Considering that Tumblr, DeviantArt, and Newgrounds and pretty much ever other legacy platform of the 2000s and 2010s are either irrelevant, gone, or banned compared to Pixiv and X, you are going to have everything fallback to one of those two sites.
>>51319772Its the gay era of the internet where no one has their own personal blog or websites anymore because they are too brain rotted by social media to hold interaction in any other meaningful
>>51319746>>>>>>>>>>>food/drink photosI hate this so much with a fucking passion. An entire month of food pictures only for the fucker to upload two drawings (three if I'm lucky). And the food often doesn't even look that worthy of a photograph.
>>51290730I only use them occasionally when I need to find something specific because they have superior tags, but even for this task they are kinda worthless because 90% of the results are dogshit western slop which is even worse than ai.
>>51322236>western character>-huge_assyep its booru time
>>51319746kek, slightly OT but japanese instagram car accounts are like this, they'll have a really cool unique build so you click on their profile and its just ramen and train tickets. Meanwhile in the west some fuckboi plastidips his Altima and makes a 10 page forum thread detailing it.
>>51290969>Sankaku Complex is pure, unadulterated garbagesankaku WAS the best booru (in term of completeness) until they went full jew and now you cannot even enter without login
