Anime characters with adorable animal characteristics, ears, tails, fur, etc.

  1. Posts must feature "kemonomimis". That is, anime characters with animal features such as cat ears, bunny tails, paws, and so on.
  2. No nudity. Lewd art is fine, but mark it NSFW.
  3. If posting a more suggestive piece, or one with simply a lot of skin, consider still marking it NSFW.
  4. Include a link to the artist in post body, if you can.
  5. AI Generated content is not allowed.
  6. Positivity only. No shitting on the art, the artists, or the fans of the art/artist.
  7. Finally, all rules of the parent instance still apply, of course.

SauceNao can be used to effectively reverse search the creator of a piece, if you do not know it.

You may also leave the post body blank or mention @saucechan@ani.social, in which case the bot will attempt to find and provide the source in a comment.

Random thought: With better support toward WebP, it is getting less hated than before. Can I say the hate toward WebP is disappeared?

No, I hate it. imv does not support webp making me open web browser to see pictures. I hope Avif will replace WebP soon.

I really wish desktop image viewers supported it better instead of the browser being one of the few pieces of software that render them. For web use though, they are hard to beat when it comes to file size, so I understand why they have been so widely used in the fediverse where instances basically run off donations.

For sure! Compared to jpg it's still better for sharing pics online, but honestly Avif files are even smaller than webp at the same quality. I usually prefer WebP (for sharing) though, since it’s more widely supported.

Ayy, another .avif enjoyer!

Any reason qView doesn't work for you?

I don't use a tiling window manager, so I'm not sure what makes imv ideal. But I dislike how every damn gallery app has an excessive featureset when all I want is to see the damn file I just double-clicked. QView has been perfect, and never let me down in terms of format support, ever since I first installed it back when I was still on windows.

[–] wjs018@ani.social 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

TIL about qView. I am going to give this a shot because I haven't found a great option for viewing webp outside the browser when I am stuck on Windows.

[–] MentalEdge@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 week ago

You'll love it. It is exactly the image viewer my minimalist ass would make.

It just shows you the image, allows you zoom and pan, right click for a little more actions and details, and the arrow keys let you go next/previous in the folder.

That's it.

Oh, I just tried it, looks neat but qview has a bit different philosophy from imv (for tiling), shortcut bug (can't remap F key, even after unmapping it from any else action), and what is really bad, there are viewing issues on sway. For sake of justise, I tried many viewers but unfortunatelly imv "just works" better than everything else for me. So I use mpv, web browser or kitten icat (viewing images in kitty terminal) for webp. However, I will use qview on Windows, thanks.

I tried to talk the administration into using avif over webp but didn’t work out.

No the hate is still around.

But support is now wide-spread enough that webp files usually aren't a problem anymore.

Telegram turns webp images you send into stickers that can't be viewed in full size, which is just weird.
