Ok wow Raora is pretty bad at math. Two four-digit numbers multiplied is not gonna result in a mere five-digit total. You can immediately tell she’s making it up.

And Cecilia could have made up a number in the millions to seem at least kind of right, so I’m a little disappointed there, too.

!dungeonmeshi@ani.social for the discussion threads on each episode.

Latest version also has an instance explorer, that lets you open other instances in that same “view all” view.

Select “instances” in search, or long press a post from another instance>instance>visit instance.

Any higher quality available @saucechan@ani.social?

I can feel my IQ slipping. Sweet sweet ignorance, embrace me.

Chobits? Is that you?

Hmmm.

I don’t really have series I’m ashamed of liking. Perhaps one’s I know are trash… I try not to be a weeb in the company of most people, in order to respect their disinterest, but I don’t have anything that makes we wish I’d disappear if people found out.

I watched everything there was of Freezing, for the sole reason that HanaKana VAs a character that is thirsty as hell, which is somewhat embarrassing.

Ah. A fellow leg man.

It’s genuinely a fun series.

Because I want to keep the title contents minimal. I initially didn’t even include the artists in the title, but only plopped a link in the body, but I changed that as most people won’t check the body text.

If I’m including any untranslated details, it’ll be in the post body. If its inclusion is in case someone needs to use it as a search term, it doesn’t need to be in the title for someone just scrolling by.

You’re right. But the logic for which method to go with is up to google translate, for now.

I’ll have to look into other ways to access translation in python.

It really depends. Handle and usernames aren’t even the same thing anymore, and especially on pixiv, I’ve noticed artists changing the display name on a regular basis, even though pixiv doesn’t even have handles to fall back on if a user gets confused.

The script primarily pulls the artist name from either saucenao or pixiv, and either translates or romanises it. It’s nice to see something pronounceable, because unless you can read the moon runes, there is no real way to commit the artists name to memory. So while the original string is more searchable, it almost completely loses recognizability on a platform with english-speaking users.

I actually want people to find these artists, seeing multiple works and realizing you like something a certain person makes, is what eventually gets people to look them up, I feel.

But, I could improve the script further by having it include the pixiv artist ID and twitter handle in cleartext when those sources are available, etc.

Haha, no, the artist goes by “Hand”, though the WIP script I’m using to post, translated that from japanese and inserted it into the artist field of the title string.

You’d think, but the amount of people who “save” pictures on their phones by taking a screenshot that they then don’t ever crop, is disturbing.

There’s not a lot of work that’s gone into using it on a tablet. It would be nice if posts got split into columns, like you can do with the feed.

Did they actually re-code the whole thing to make it native? You can ship a web app via the app store just fine. Only making changes to take advantage of the better system access that provides.

Pretty sure its still a web app under the hood.

A web app doesn’t magically turn into a native app when you put it on the app store. The way it gets installed, and the system access is different, and better for stuff like notifications…

But the word “native” refers to applications made using the native SDK, which in Apple’s case is Swift. I’d be extremely impressed if the devs re-wrote the entire app in new code. But that would be unnecessary.

You can have non-native apps on the app store. A lot of your apps probably aren’t native. SDKs like flutter, used by liftoff and thunder, make development much easier in exchange for the resulting application running a bit less efficiently. Flutter applications can also run on both Android and iOS, and even desktop, with little additional work.

Thunder has also been available for a while.

It is overall a bit behind in development compared to others, but IMO it’s the best looking. Next update is bringing another big set of improvements.

ActivityPub really can’t do what discord does.

Matrix, however…

Yes, it works with kbin mags too, from lemmy.

Kbin would have to be updated, too, to be able to do the same thing.
