+1 for open source and if possible when an artist has multiple services they offer rewards on (for example if they have both Fanbox and a patreon) instead of those two being separate entries connect them in someway, maybe something like a folder or just on the page of one of them link to the pages of the other services on of his uploaded to the site.

Scraper being open source is probably one of the dumbest ideas ever. Sure, for some time you will be able to manage.
But the moment fanbox, patreon or whatever catches up, they will be able to adapt their system and bypass all attempts.
It's MUCH BETTER to actually have smaller group that has access to a scraper and manages it.
Also, while at it, purging everything unrelated to porn. Why the fuck do we need some shit-tubers reacting to anime clogging up space.
No.32503
Option for manual uploads. Obviously this comes with a need for moderation. Exhentai has fanbox/fantia/patreon galleries but the interface isn't optimal for it and a site that specializes in it would be nice to have.
This allows the site to continue operating even if importers fail.

same with paywall scrapper code, people would form a community just so they could leak those content locked behind a paywall that the company trying to patch it.

No.32557
>>32496To anyone reading this who may have the power to do as this user requested, (scrap everything that's not porn) please do not do so. I only use kemono for accessing advance chapters of novels that I'm reading, and it would kind of suck to have to wait several months for the public releases to catch back up.
No.32558
>>32557Same user here, I would be fine with getting rid of the anime reaction videos though. My bad for double posting, I forgot to mention this in my last response. I doubt the text from novel updates and PDF files included by some authors take much space on the servers anyways.
No.32560
>>32537>im glad we have that kind of contentI'm not. When I'm searching for porn, I want to find fucking porn.
I don't want to scroll through 50000 pages of someone's reactions to each One Piece episode or read their novels.
Yes, sure. It's cool that it's there. But server costs are a thing. It bloats the server costs AND it actually makes searching for content quite miserable.
No.32581
>>32560Why not have separate pages for that kind of stuff? Or a search filter. That way you won't have to see reaction content mixed in with porn.
No.32655
>>31193If this is still happening, I have some thoughts.
* One of the Patreon artists I visit likes using Dropbox links to show his saucy art. The thing is, the Dropbox links end up going to some error page. What I think would be cool is if on the off-chance a Dropbox link just expires, the artist's Kemono page can use Catbox or something to compensate for the loss of the original link, so that the art that would've gotten lost has another outlet.
* I don't know if this one is within anyone's control, but maybe no R18+ ads?
* Maybe more frequent updates for the artists using Discord? One artist I check up on does some really juicy Xenoblade videos, but they seem to be using MEGA links on their Discord to share the high-res versions of those videos.

+1 for it being open source.
If you like Pixiv's bookmarking feature, Great!
No.32805
Maybe adding a way for the community to tag certain content creator? Sometime I find an promising artist and when I check they just make a shit ton of scat content or gore. A way to tag (and possible black list) content creators could be very useful.

>>32537Let's take a look at Tachiyomi open source scapping.
> Site owner find the source code> Keeps changing the site and broke the scrapper> cat and mouse game No.32840
I'm convinced some of the people uploading the scrapped content from a patreon/fanbox source is the developer themselves like Canary. They update their Kemono page with new info and a dead Mega link on purpose while their patreon has the new working link. This is also true since any new updates come out and they still have dead links depsite them being new. Some devs be playing dirty heh.
No.32890
I'm pretty mixed on open source, sure people can collectively fix issues in code, but when the scraped sites find out there'd be an endless treadmill of working around updating systems and whatnot. Either way if it can scrape stuff from fanbox without issue I'm good, maybe categorise SFW and NSFW content too so people can find what they want easier without sifting through content as much.
No.32947
As long as it can scrape from Patreon and Pixiv Fanbox, that’s good enough for me.
Bonus points if it can also scrape Subscribestar and Gumroad
No.32955
I hope you can do it and I give you my support, which is the only thing I can do.
I have seen some people ask for the scraper to be open source. I disagree. While I love open source software, it will eventually lead to someone finding the code and changing the site so it doesn't work anymore, breaking it completely. I think that it should remain closed source, and only be opened to a team of developers who can be trusted.
Good luck with your work and hope it goes well!
No.32965
>>31193Sounds cool, I wish you luck on your development
No.32968
>>32947Yeah, I'm of the same opinion.
If it can just do Patreon and Fanbox, then I'm cool with it. (Although Discord would also be good since at least one artist I frequent has been using that to post MEGA links lately.)
By the by, if it all works out, will you leave a link to it in this thread? Either way, good luck on the project!
No.33006
open source, for things like Patreon it would ideally scrape polls as well due to people hiding passwords in there recently, and update the comments as well because people post MEGA links and then just change them because kemono can't update comments for some reason
No.33010
>>32537Well, you see, those open source projects don't directly threaten the whole monetization scheme of a bunch of greedy internet platforms that will do whatever is necessary to stop what scrapers are doing.

>>33010Not that anon but at the moment Ublock is at war with Youtube with the whole "addblock war".
And Ublock being open source is the thing that's making it win the war so far. Youtube releases an update and the Ublock github gets updated a couple minutes later thanks to all the people wanting to help.
Maybe something similar will happen here
No.33388
I wonder how many times we'll see a new yiff/kemono pop up…

Poll scraping
Comment scraping

(For Discord imports) Tagging specific posts in case artists drown out their channels with memes or whining
No.33478
As long as it gets around Fantia, and now Fanbox detection for bans, I don't care. Or even a way to upload directly if not possible. Fantia dying only lost me 10 creators. I can manage that. But fanbox lost me hundreds with a large amount doing time gated content that I simply can't afford to get it all myself let alone share it.
No.33535
Honestly, what this kinda thing needs is a way to get past Fanbox’s new detection thing that they supposedly have now, since that seems to be the reason why it’s no longer working for Kemono
