It was marked sensitive on danbooru (which I’m not quite sure how to interpret) and there’s a panty peak. I thought it was probably fine, but I didn’t really want to get into arguments on my day off or get the instance in trouble if people were offended, so tagged it pre-emptively. (The sidebar recommends tagging if unsure.)

I have a few of those, and while the ones I bought have worked out fine so far, I think it’s worth cautioning people that they are annoyingly loud doing basic operations.

Yes, that’s Kirino from Oreimo.
- Comment on Iji, a surprisingly complex action-platformer 2 months ago:
Oh, I remember playing Iji! I think that was the first game I played that noticed and reacted if you tried to play as a pacifist. There was at least one unavoidable boss fight when I played it though, as I recall.
Digging back through my old disks, it looks like I actually still have my copy from 2008 (version 1.2, according to the manual.txt file) as well as a saved game from much later when I replayed it in February 2013. That was a while ago!
- Comment on Anime related active communities promotion post 2 months ago:
!animepics@reddthat.com – people mostly post fan art these days, but discussion of anything anime-adjacent (anime/manga/VN/hentai/etc.) is explicitly allowed too. In the past I’ve posted amusing/interesting stills from shows I was watching, custom image composites, screenshot comics, and things like that.
!anime_irl@ani.social – “A community for sharing relatable real-life situations depicted in anime.”

kbin.social has been totally down for a while. I don’t think your posts are actually federating when you post into a kbin.social magazine right now; the votes you are getting are probably from other lemmy.world users only.
- Comment on Otome Games [not mine] 4 months ago:
kbin.social’s been down for a while, and having serious problems for months.
There is a general visual novel community at !visualnovels@lemmy.comfysnug.space which might be a better place to post to. It’s not very active, but I know there are at least a few people around paying attention to it. I might chime in on some threads occasionally if you post there. My tastes are more in line with VNs aimed at the straight-male demographic, but I’m willing to try other VNs beyond that if there is a really good story or novel mechanics or some other non-sexual factor that makes it interesting.
If that community doesn’t fit your needs, I think there is also !otome_games@lemmy.world – but it seemed completely dead the last time I looked. You might be able to revive it though if you want to try.

I recognize some of the characters:
- Akiyama Yukari from Girls und Panzer (top left corner)
- Oumae Kumiko from Hibike! Euphonium (center – brown hair and yellow eyes)
- Kuriyama Mirai from Beyond the Boundary (right – with glasses)
but I don’t recognize the others.

I ran into an example of the thumbnail issue again today – this time on a post from kbin: old.reddthat.com/post/19193476
The thumbnail looks like this in the HTML:
<div class="thumb"> <a class="url" href="https://media.kbin.social/media/60/a4/60a45b8ff88b1b2e3a0f77b701feb323c5bbfb7ceeb75154ea7df5d6eea15ef8.jpg" > <div style="background-image: url(https://media.kbin.social/media/60/a4/60a45b8ff88b1b2e3a0f77b701feb323c5bbfb7ceeb75154ea7df5d6eea15ef8.jpg?format=jpg&thumbnail=96)"></div> </a> </div>
Note that it’s making a request to kbin.social with
?format=jpg&thumbnail=96parameters in the CSS – which results in the full image being loaded since kbin doesn’t run pictrs.The versions in use (according to the settings page) are:
lemmy: 0.19.4-beta.7 mlmym: 0.0.44
- Comment on Why don't more filtering systems enable sorting by least viewed/visited, including for older pages/material? 5 months ago:
That requires turning every read into a write – which is slow/expensive generally. (That might not matter much for Google – who try to record everything you ever do already, basically – but it matters for everyone else.)
Also, it tends to promote spam and offensive niche content. kbin’s got a sidebar that tries to promote random low activity communities and posts, for example, and it’s almost uncanny how much crap it pushes up…
- Comment on [Clip] Mecha Battles in a (Mostly) Pre-CG World - Vision of Escaflowne 5 months ago:
After I finished watching the series, I discovered that there is a movie version of the story that condenses it down to <2 hours. I haven’t watched it, but that might be a more approachable way for modern viewers to digest the story.
I have seen both (a long time ago), and from what I remember the movie was REALLY different – like, almost unrecognizably different. I do not recommend substituting one for the other.

I’m having trouble finding an example of the thumbnail issue again right now but I was seeing the pictrs conversion parameters passed to URLs from catbox.moe, i.postimg.cc, and other sources in the CSS for the thumbnail when I reported the issue to Tiff ~3 weeks ago. It’s possible that it got fixed/suppressed by another change since then though. (0.0.44 was deployed a few hours ago and I think there may have also been a beta patch bump for the lemmy backend at some point since I reported the issue originally in our local support community.)
I’ll let you know if I see it pop up again.
For the text handling issue, I was seeing text like “<thread title> by <username> in <community>” (i.e.
“<thread title> by <username> in <community>”if it still happens) getting misinterpreted as raw HTML instead of being escaped. (i.e.<!-- raw HTML omitted -->was showing up in the HTML output for the page.)You may recognize that text as the pattern for a recently fixed bug in the user profiles; I found the text handling issue while trying to explain the other issue to Tiff a few weeks ago.
Will edit this comment immediately after posting to let you know if I still see the text issue.
- Comment on what lemmy web app do you use and why? 5 months ago:
Thanks! I’ll go ask Tiff about getting reddthat updated later.
BTW, is there a community for discussion of mlmym itself somewhere on lemmy? I can’t participate on GitHub, but those aren’t the only issues I’ve found. (e.g. there’s also
?format=jpg&thumbnail=96on non-pictrs links and a text handling issue with angle brackets…) - Comment on what lemmy web app do you use and why? 5 months ago:
That’s great to hear!

You can open any profile with multiple pages worth of posts or comments on old.reddthat.com and it’s jumbled. Even my own profile is jumbled: old.reddthat.com/u/e0qdk
The first page is mostly comments I made two weeks ago plus a thread from today and some very old threads. The second page has comments I made earlier today and during the past week. The third page starts with my most recent comment and then has a bunch of older comments.
The exact order might change after posting this, but my own recent comments mostly being on page two has been pretty consistent for a while.
If I look at a very active user’s profile (like MentalEdge’s), I see threads from today show up on page three(!) while there are threads from a week or more ago on pages one and two.
I’m not sure what’s going on exactly, but it basically makes user profiles pretty useless right now through mlmym.
- Comment on what lemmy web app do you use and why? 5 months ago:
I haven’t had much issue with lag, generally, but I don’t get notifications any more – which is probably the most pressing issue. (I have to remember to manually check once in a while after I post since the envelope doesn’t light up.) That might be an issue with reddthat being on a recent beta version of lemmy – I don’t know.
We do have lemmy-ui-next over here too. Thanks for reminding me about that. I’ve been meaning to poke at it a bit.
- Comment on what lemmy web app do you use and why? 5 months ago:
Right now I’m mostly using mlmym (the “old” interface on most instances that support it) because it doesn’t require JS for basic viewing.
It’s kind of buggy though, unfortunately – things like user history show up as a complete jumble, for example. :(
One of these days, I’ll probably get fed up enough to go write my own interface and set things up exactly how I want them to work… but I’ve got too many projects already so I’m just living with it for now.

Wait. The author is 藤本 and the main characters are named 藤野 and 京本? I can guess where 京 comes from. Is there additional significance to 野?
- Comment on 泉こなた by Sentter [LuckyStar] 7 months ago:
I thought it might be Mugi at first for the blonde haired character, but この and me misremembering the date K-On came out threw me off I guess. Looking at it again, I think you’re right – and early 2009 would be spot on for an ad in Japan.
I haven’t seen Evangelion but looking through a list of characters the blue haired character there could be Rei.
Thanks!

Lots of characters in the background of this one – e.g. Rider, Saber, and Tohsaka from Fate/Stay Night, Astro Boy, etc. I’m not sure who the characters are on the front of the cart (where it says この before being cut off) or directly behind Konata’s bags though.
