Be it manga, manwha or manhua, what are some good villainess stories.

Im specifically looking for things that try to innovate in some aspect or that has a quirk that really makes it stand out to you, those that aren't your run of the mill "revenge, gets the prince, uses knowledge to humiliate everyone" kind of cliche story.

But that doesn't really matter, just recommend whatever story you have enjoyed in the genre if you like, even share your opinions on the genre.

Let's talk about villainesses!

Since this community takes heavy inspiration on what the r/manga sub was doing, why not take one of the best parts?

In case anyone is wondering what that is, I'm referring to this kind of threat: https://www.reddit.com/r/manga/comments/14p1m5o/what_manga_have_you_read_this_week_and_what_do/

Also I did do one of this 3 days ago in case someone doesn't want to see the reddit, although reddit paints a better example of what I wish it was.

I feel the community would greatly benefit if the mods were the ones that did the post and it was a pinned message that changed every week.

Reasoning is that unless pinned, the post just looses relevancy quick, a lot of people will miss it and also and very importantly, people that come see if they want to join can look at a post where people interact through an entire week and were some interesting conversations and suggestions are born instead of only seeing chapter releases that gather 1 or 2 comments at most since not everyone is keeping up with this many series (especially considering how small the community is right now)

Just in case, I'm not criticizing chapter release discussion, I think they are great as they keep the community with constant new content. It's just that with the small current size of this community, most of them are not interacted with and people unfamiliar to what these posts try to accomplish will not really get the best impression of the community if every post is almost empty (case in point, the guy like 5 or 6 days ago asking what the purpose of the community is), it's just the curse that comes with small size for this kind of format.

Nowadays D-frag is one of my favorite comedy manga, but when I tried reading it for the first time it didn't feel that funny or good, in fact I dropped it yhree times before reading it up to catching up, since theen I have re read this many times.

I think it is because of this "retort based comedy" that at the time of my first reading was kind of unfamiliar to me. A protagonist playing straightman and highlighting all the time how weird the antics of the side characters where wasn't that appealing.

Fast forward a few years later and I now find it hilarious l don't know it it's an acquired taste from reading more manga or just growing up.

So I'm curious for those that have read it or those that have tried, whate are your opinions on D-Frag?

What is that one series, that was either canceled or forced to have a rushed ending, that had the potential to be great but was cut too short to see it and you keep wondering, years later, how good it would have been had the author been able to continue?

I'm asking for private notes, that only you as a user can see.

Just to exemplify, a similar feature is over at mastodon, where you click on profile and you see an "add note" message, another implementation is over at discord.

It is a really useful feature when needing to remember certain users, like when you are looking at why you blocked someone or for when you interact with certain recurring users.

Is there an extension or feature for this, if not, has it been requested on GitHub, or am I restricted to having to keep a manual list myself?

I know this is not a feature oficially on lemmy as of now (at least the github https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/2397?ref=privacy.thenexus.today the issue is still open)

What I'm asking is if there are any browser extensions or an app that will just automatically block any community you encounter from a particular instance.

Im kind of tired of seeing all the porn on all and blocking communities 1 by 1 but I don't want to turn off nsfw.

(Also as a side question, is this the community to ask lemmy related questions? I guess it will probably be oversaturated with this kind of post so I ask for future reference, I thought about asklemmy but that is more about open ended questions.)

Alternatively if you have never bought a volume, what is first on your wishlist to kickstart your collection?

Noticed there isn't a pinned message with this, which was my favorite part of the subreddit, so let's talk!

Anything goes, share your thoughts on what you read, treat it as a recommendation or just a log, tell people what you dropped or what you caught up to, just say whatever you feel like about what you've read this past week, there is no correct format.

Just say if something includes spoilers.

I dont know if this is bugged or there are actually no mods but !writingprompts@lemmy.ml shows 0 mods.

So I was wondering, can it have 0 mods? If so, what happens now does it get deleted in any way or given to someone in the meantime to moderate? Or are these instances mostly left alone to rot?

For those that dont want to look at the link:

"effective immediately, we plan to discontinue the following activities:

1. Active solicitation of celebrities or high profile figures to do AMAs.

2. Email and modmail coordination with celebrities and high profile figures and their PR teams to facilitate, educate, and operate AMAs. (We will still be available to answer questions about posting, though response time may vary).

3. Running and maintaining a website for scheduling of AMAs with pre-verification and proof, as well as social media promotion.

4. Maintaining a current up-to-date sidebar calendar of scheduled AMAs, with schedule reminders for users.

5. Sister subreddits with categorized cross-posts for easy following.

6. Moderator confidential verification for AMAs.

7. Running various bots, including automatic flairing of live posts"

I feel this was Reddit biggest sub, and probably the most prestigious. Wonder what the effect will be on reddit overall and if reddit will replace the mods.

Thing is, I have the batman series from the 60s that I downloaded a long time ago. I deleted the torrent but I want to seed again because I remember it having like 1 or 2 people seeding and I have better internet nowadays, I have two questions on this:

1. Is there a way to find the torrent directly from metadata on the files or some other way instead of having to search on sites until I find it?

2. If I were to find a different upload of the same files, can I just verify the files I have and start uploading directly without having to download them first?
