Is the Retroid any good? Every emulation handheld I've managed to get has been trash so far.

It's actually in the megathread under tools. Basically, it's a downloader service. Downloads torrents and ddl files to their servers, then you download from there.
That's what sourcing content is for. All the communities I moderate require sources when possible, and proof of best effort when not.
Your suggestion would make hentai communities all but impossible for the exact reasons you already stated.
Linking only to an art page would make the communities functionally useless. People don't come to follow a million links, open a hundred web pages, and sign up for a dozen services in hopes of seeing something they like, they come to see the content, same as in any IRL content community.
Nude photos are cheap and easy to produce, so those communities would never be starved for content, but a hentai community that only allows direct images if they're OC would be dead on arrival.
I've seen people talk about real debrid forever, and to this day, I've never seen any explanation of just what it is. I've looked it up, and all I found was a generic site with a signup, and the best description I've ever seen anyone use for it is "worth the money."
Edit: No, nevermind, I figured out what it was for. What I couldn't figure out that put me off was the price.
I watched that video around when it first came out, really interesting stuff.
I know what you mean, I stopped doing giveaways on SteamGifts because I started having users not mark the games as received, which negatively impacted me directly, and even caught one reselling a game I'd given them.
Thank yee
I voted for bot-specific communities, but I honestly think subscribing to them on other instances is better. It's what I've been doing already.
Also, that other comment's idea about banning anything but OC, that's the worst idea I've ever read. At that point, you may as well just declare this an anti-2D instance, because adult art communities will never survive under such draconian rules. Even on Reddit, my sub only got about one OC post a month, and I doubt that one regular user has moved here.
Nice. 😏
Much love!
Lemmit.online is using Reddit's rss feeds to share the posts to the fediverse. Worth giving a look.
I've been doing a lot of reading about DDG since this dropped and ad blocking, a major privacy factor, was not included, and simply, I don't trust DDG anymore. If they were willing to disregard user privacy once, chances are they'll do it again. Hell, I'd bet they already are.
