@not_benis I've been using it less than f2fs and that's just killed itself with some update on two pcs, but like the features enough to take the chance. and if it's good enough for fedora it's probably fine
@lina@lich feels funny to have this conversation in 2024. if there's one thing people could get from the brony accident it's that maybe the show was not crappy and for little girls but oh well
@lina@lich I disagree with just about all of this post >combatting the stigma requires doing more than just aping how anime does stuff it doesn't do that? western shows around that time started being likened to anime a lot because they finally started loosing the gag-of-the-week formula they've been beholden to for so long (and even now do a meh job at it), and anime was one of few common points of reference. FiM participated in that, but not to combat the stigma - that required merely discarding the fucking insane "girls like pink and rainbows" writing. Brony culture, despite being horrid, is still a testament to FiM success in this endeavor as it's spawned countless neat crossovers utilizing FiMs themes and world, many of great quality on their own (if you're not prejudiced against cartoon horses in the first place...) >sure they made a slice of life with cartoon horses, it's still about cartoon horses and the association with little girls it's neither a sol, nor about little girls liking horses. again, it's any-audience, and about importance of friendship. the main characters are girls I guess... some are grown women and sometimes deal with grown women problems too, but then other episodes are like "we go to spooky forest to fight and save our asses" which is not sol. >it's not like they made something actually epic featuring said cartoon horses that could elevate it beyond being a show for little girls bronies believed it did all the way back in 2011, and I maintain this belief. maybe your bar for moving an all-female cast, no lewds, no swearing show above "a show for little girls" is a bit high for gay western media? >but it's just a slice of life like every other show for little girls and as a result it's not combatting anything aside from FiM not being a sol in my belief, can you name some of the many other sol shows for little girls? If you actually put them side by side I think it's very easy to spot how the writing differs.
@lina@lich ackshully FiM was meant to be an any-audience show, written specifically to combat the stigma of "little girls show" the cartoon horses have been associated with in the past. unfortunately it just got replaced with a way worse one, but it proved there was no good reason for the former.
@lina@Inginsub everyone predating streamer culture is on spectrum of boring to good, and it's actually quite difficult to be offensively boring when streaming games only after early twitch (grab bag of esports sweatlords and entertainers) cancer becomes a measurable factor, ensuring every streamer has a way to disqualify themselves from excellence then there's historical mystery meat nnd streams and contemporary normie (tiktok, fb etc) crap-by-default streams
