While I don't have a problem, if someone else likes it, I'm not really a fan of Wataten. And yes, it's the edgy jokes.
It's not that there is one edgy joke about sex offenders, it is that it seems the entire anime appears to be such jokes. It's joke after joke after joke.
That makes it quite uninteresting to me.
Like, there are anime where a character seduces the teacher for laughs, and that's probably alright.
But then, this anime is just "fall in love with little girl" "bribe her with candy" "snap photos" "I'm calling the police" for laughs.
It's not that I find it uniquely offensive or distasteful, or that I think it is obscene to the eye, it's that it's just not interesting to me.
To me, it's an anime trying far too hard to be edgy. I'm not particularly surprised this anime doesn't seem to have gotten a second season.
@trinsec It's a temporary order while the judge hears the case.
@kkarhan @eff I think you're the one who is off-base here.
I don't particularly like this site, however, a company such as this setting troublesome precedents is just Free Speech 101.
That said, the EFF hasn't been particularly proactive about defending sexual expression on the Web. This is kind of an annoying American cultural thing where sex is somehow more taboo than whatever it is that this site does.
And you know as well as anyone else that they've been criticizing these bills and carrying petitions.
In this situation, there aren't any particularly "good" answers. Set a dangerous precedent to take down one particular unpleasant site?
@wststreet This instance does both. It shows them separately and inline in the feed, lol.
@wststreet Oops, I responded to this from notifications without looking at the context (for a moment, I thought you were talking about reactions).
Deleted my original dumb post.
Yeah, I'm brainstorming this one quite a bit. It ties into... A lot of the issues which arise on this network.
Also, with Threads coming, you might run into that dead body case sooner than you might think o.O
I've seen that on the bird site. It was not fun.
@wststreet Emoji reactions. Like Discord?
I've seen them around, so presumably there is *some way* to do that, although it might be a bit less efficient than a simple like (I know, I know, I'm thinking of performance, lol).
Quote *might* be coming to Mastodon. I think we have it here on Qoto (it's a fork of Mastodon). But, yeah, that is a useful one.
I think DMs *are* normal posts with a visibility setting set so that only one person can see it. The UI might just hide that detail from you, hehe.
@wststreet I'm also thinking of how to handle content which someone might not like.
Some kind of label but without hashtag semantics which someone can filter? o.O
While NSFW is a sort of label, it lacks granularity. Some people lump in mere "sexy" (although, this one is kind of a meh example) with outright porn with some photo of dead bodies from a war zone.
While I think war zones are more of a concern on mainstream social media, it kind of illustrates the point.
It's a vexing question...
@wststreet Crude market research round.
What sort of functionality do you look for in a fediverse implementation? If I was to build one, what would you want to see?
@dogunwalker you have the same name as me :o
If a higher being who is more than human uses this thing I'm writing, I can only apologize for this.
It's just for a configuration file though.
It doesn't make much of a difference how long it takes to process it, so long as it isn't perceptible to humans.
Well, let's not get that far ahead of myself, first build an implementation which actually works properly (which it seems that other one doesn't).
That'll be a good small goal.
For something like a configuration file, it has to be something very obvious and straightforward and easy to use, otherwise it's going to be a hassle to fiddle with.
