Discussion, development suggestions, and criticisms are all welcome here.SFW Filter Month Edition>why alternate boorus?The absolute state of Derpibooru has led to the development of various alternatives.

>>42762949I've been using ponerpics for stockpiling images as someone told me twibooru and ponybooru both blocked Aryanne content.Is this true or have i been duped?
>>42762959You've been duped.
>>42762959Ponybooru has not blocked Aryanne content.Of the 126 images tagged with Aryanne that have been removed, 70% of them are duplicate images, 25% are from the same DNP image being uploaded 20 times (and another 4 times), and the remaining handful of images stem from various artists' DNPs.None of them have been removed just because Aryanne happened to be present.Twibooru will have had fewer images of her removed on account of them not doing DNPs.
>>42762959You've been massively duped. One of the main reasons ponybooru and twibooru got to exist in the first place was because of Aryanne.
>>42762959>twibooru and ponybooru both blocked Aryanne contentMassive fucking fake news of the highest order. Someone is either horribly misinformed or wanted to mess with you on purpose.
>>42763034>>42763058>>42763069>>42763114>Be me>Be retarded Guess guess i probably shouldn't listen to people on mlpol.Would there be any reason to use one booru over another?They all seem to function and look pretty much the same but i only bothered to make an account on ponerpics.
>>42763143Both Ponerpics and Twibooru have the same hardline no-takedown policy. Choosing one isn't a moral dilemma, it just comes down to which particular features you want (e.g. Poner's forums vs. Twi's text & MP4 uploads).
Bonk.
>>42763143Ponerpics and Ponybooru are communities, Twibooru is just an archive, not intended to engage with the people there (comments are normally turned off and only anonymous). Twibooru keeps everything up, Ponerpics keeps mostly everything up, Ponybooru is shady in that regard, there was some drama over a picture being deleted without the artist's request or something but I forgot what it was.
>>42762946Can't read ponepaste on mobile. Text overflows out of the screen and I can't scroll to the right.
>>42763800>>42763263So twibooru would be good for hunting pics and poner pics for chewing the fat.Regardless of where i go i just naturally asume there's gonna be some degree drama amongst users, thats a thing you'll get everywhere.
>>42763800>Ponybooru is shady in that regard, there was some drama over a picture being deleted without the artist's request or something but I forgot what it wastwi3027548, deleted because two Ponybooru staff at the time didn't want outed for being foalfags but given context were probably foalfags.>Twibooru is just an archiveThis is mostly because /mlp/ hasn't completely died and this thread exists. The forums are rigged to be operational pretty quickly after the last shitshow.>>42763143>guess i probably shouldn't listen to people on mlpolGiven they have a vested interest in shilling their option over others (for some reason, now) and the general rot of the imageboard in question, yeah. Probably get multiple sources for info next time, anon.
>>42763855>Outed for being foalfagsWho the fuck cares?>After the last shitshowWhat kind of shitshow could possibly come from archiving pics?Yeh pretty much nothing going on with mlpol, get less than 10 posts a day there most days and half of them are probably me.
>>42763934>Who the fuck cares?Them, apparently.>What kind of shitshow could possibly come from archiving pics?Not from archival, but from communication mediums of choice eating shit and dying like earlier this year.
>>42763934>What kind of shitshow could possibly come from archiving pics?It's <current year>. You can get a shitshow even from not doing something.
>>42763800>Twibooru keeps everything up, Ponerpics keeps mostly everything upNot to invoke the threadschizo, but Poner's policies are more lenient when it comes to non-pony OCs. I can't think of one pic that's been deleted off Poner but is still on Twi.>>42763934>>42763967YOUR PONY FAN WEB SITE THAT YOU DO FOR FREE HAS TO BE UP 24/7 OTHERWISE YOU SHOULD NOT RUN A SITE AT ALLYOU MUST DO IT FOR FREE 24/7 AND YOU ARE INCOMPETENT AND SHOULD KILL YOURSELF IF YOU HAVE EVEN 1 SECOND OF DOWNTIME PER DECADE
>>42764056Given that the differences between boorus is pretty small, I'm probably going to just stick with ponerpics as it's working fine for me and its got most of what I'm looking for anyway.>YOUR PONY FAN WEB SITE THAT YOU DO FOR FREE HAS TO BE UP 24/7 OTHERWISE YOU SHOULD NOT RUN A SITE AT ALLYOU MUST DO IT FOR FREE 24/7 AND YOU ARE INCOMPETENT AND SHOULD KILL YOURSELF IF YOU HAVE EVEN 1 SECOND OF DOWNTIME PER DECADEThe fuck was all that about?
>>42763143>Guess guess i probably shouldn't listen to people on mlpolYou should never listen to those people, Anon. They don't care about mares. They only care about furthering their political ideas using pone as a vehicle. They are literally the same as the danger hairs, but on the other direction.
>>42764056>Poner's policies are more lenient when it comes to non-pony OCs.I'm mostly talking about their stance on paywalled content. Twibooru's is a clear "we're going to keep it up anyway, cope and seethe" whereas Ponerpics doesn't have a clear policy and seems to mostly keep it up merely out of inactivity of the moderation, but that's not a guarantee.
>>42764708Mostly true, and they're just as insufferable to be around as the woke leftoids on Derpi. Shame that sensible people no longer exist.
>>42763143>>42763846Basically.Twibooru has a lot more stuff that has been deleted from derpi for dnp and alike. >>42752855However it has a tagging problem, there are not enough users to compete with derpi on that regard and it doesn't automatically sync the edits.
>>42765108Maybe Twibooru's importer is just faster than Ponerpics so it catches more.Also don't forget that Twibooru automatically adds the tag "deleted from derpibooru" to loli uploads. The posts may have never even existed on Derpibooru and Ponerpics, due to its more active community, removes the misleading tags on import from Twibooru.
>>42765144I checked by hand a couple pics that were uploaded on derpi about 12 years ago, the artist tag has been purged some time later for dnp, and I wan't able to find these images on poner. Haven't tried ponybooru, so I think they only exist now on twi, since the deviantart source is gone too.
>>42765144>Also don't forget that Twibooru automatically adds the tag "deleted from derpibooru" to loli uploads.Not anymore, these implications have been removed.
>>42764911Back in the good old days of 2020 when Ponerpics first popped up, there was some consideration of DNPs:https://desuarchive.org/mlp/thread/35572418/#35582604Thankfully, this never materialized into anything. The DNP request system on Ponerpics is essentially a practical joke aimed at anyone who'd be petty enough to waste time demanding his horsey scribbles be erased from history.That's not to say the Site Rules page shouldn't be updated. The removal of "More rules, particularly concerning the rights of artists, may be added in the future" was a good start, but "This is a My Little Pony Archive Site" isn't as concrete of a statement as I'd like it to be, considering the innumerable self-described "archives" that purge their collections at the drop of a hat.>>42765144>Twibooru automatically adds the tag "deleted from derpibooru" to loli uploads.It never has. The [lolicon] and [shotacon] tags used to imply [banned from derpibooru], but that implication was removed over two months ago following an internal discussion over the precise nature of Derpi's lolisho policy. Spoiler alert: it's as inconsistently applied as the rest of them.
>>42765199>>42765257I see, I stand corrected then.
>>42764921You can find some of them here. But using the own common sense still applies.
What's your go-to for finding cute art you haven't seen before on the boorus?
>>42766028Every day, perhaps twice a day, usually while I eat, I scroll through the images that were posted since the last time I did that. Takes 15 minutes at most.
>>42766131>browsing while you eatI hope your filters are up to snuff, pun not intended.
>>42766269I used to browse rekt/dark webm threads while eating on b and gif no problem, years ago when they were fun.
>>42766028Random chance on Poner or Twi, really. I don't frequent pages like DA and such anymore.
>>42766355should boorus do more to prevent underageb& from accessing inappropriate content?
>>42767426If the government forces them to and they can't flip a bird, they have no other option.
>>42763547
>>42766355>while eating on b and gif no problemYou have received permanent mental damage.
>>42767463Why not join 4chan in a class action suit against Ofcom?>>42768426It's called not being a fucking pussy.
>>42768435>It's called not being a fucking pussy.I did not say you are a pussy if you can't stand gore. But I stand by the mental damage statement.
>>42763058>Ponybooru has not blocked Aryanne content.They totally would if Ass Stalker complained enough. They already proved that just like Derpi OC owners matter more than artists to them.
>>42768426True, I did. I regret nothing.>>42768435If you have infinite money sure I guess.
How many mares?
>>42769338>Ass StalkerLiterally who?
>>42770063Newfag.
>>42770077Call me what you will, I'd like to know who that is so that I can ignore any complaints regarding Aryanne he may send Ponybooru's way.
>>42770126What makes you think you shouldn't ignore any complaints you get about Aryanne no matter from whom they come? If it's not the government of course.
>>42770147What makes you think I won't ignore such complaints anyway?
>>42770174Use case for asking about Ass Stalker if you plan to ignore him anyway?
>>42770040Yes.
Guys I know you’re all very excited about the cutting edge upload capabilities of IWIFTP but please don’t Sib Mouse my upload folder or at least get better taste thanks
>>42770776lol kek
>>42770776I have no idea what you're talking about.
>>42767878
>>42770776You don't like when people upload unrelated crap to your archive? Are you telling me it's some kind of curated collection or something then?
>>42771816That's a lot of assuming coming from so little brain power
>>42771824You sound angry.
>>42771832Feel free to contribute
