You got here about 30 seconds too early for a part of it, although I don't link to the other site. I've been putting the sources in all comics I post since I noticed you doing it, simply because its respectful to the artist. I've got most artists sources saved in my clipboard ready to go but I post a bunch all in one so it usually takes me a minute or two to get back to the post and edit in the sources. Just for future reference to make it a bit easier on you.

But thank you, seriously. Your doing amazing work and I thank you so much for being as awesome as you are <3

Agreed. I could seriously do without the Reddit link.

My bad, you had already explained it to me :/.
I miss the user-tags feature from RES.

Thanks for the efforts!

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Of course! There are a lot of users and a lot of posts. I don't expect everyone to remember everything, you're fine! I also do miss the usertags though. That shit was vital and I'm dying without it. Me? Having to use my memory that forgets to do laundry? Not going well.

FYI: there is a not-very-convenient way of tagging users, with addons like Stylus. You can change the username style and even add some text after it:

a[href$="/u/[email protected]"] {
    background-color: purple !important;
    color: white !important;
    padding: 0 4px;
    border-radius: 3px;
}
a[href$="/u/[email protected]"]::after {
    content: "- does post sources! :)";
}

But you need to edit the CSS every time you want to add or change something.

Interesting. I don't mind fucking with the CSS that frequently. I am not good at it but I do sorta like it. Feels like a puzzle. I'm gonna have to look into that. Thank you very much!

Also considering how much I post and what i'm recognized for, being tagged as 'Does posts sources' is the biggest honor I could be given. Thank you so much 💙

Does post* sources

Fixed :P

The lemmytools userscript does this.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Thanks!

I'm using mlmym right now, but its development has been very slow, so I may switch in the future.

Please remove the Reddit link. If you really want to, just write the name of the sub but we don’t need to redirect traffic to Reddit.

I understand your point, but I prefer to leave it, unless a mod (cc @[email protected]) says otherwise.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Given the downvotes you’re getting, I’d say you’re at odds with the majority.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm ok with that :).

Long answer: IMHO reddit is still much-less-bad than twitter-facebook-instagram. At least reddit has native RSS feeds. If I stop including reddit as a source, I should also top including the others, and I feel that would be, in some sense, punishing the artists, who are not al fault about the social networks sins.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Well let’s agree to disagree. The whole reason I’m here is because I left Reddit after they stopped 3rd party apps. Fuck Spez, fuck Reddit and as for Facebook and X I don’t even look at them.
