So like an upscaled air-fryer?

Danboorus CDN seems to reply with a 403 when media is loaded from Lemmy (checked on ani.social and lemmy.world).

Adorable.

Just commenting to say: I like that you always include these small texts in your posts and I’m always looking forward to them ^^

What I observed so far:

• Top and bottom counter have a small discrepancy which stays mostly constant.
• Comment counter grows way more slowly than body counters.
• Again the body was loaded way more often than the post was interacted with.
• -> As post previews in feeds don’t show the body I initially suspect it is traffic from bots; but then again they would also have loaded the comments. So maybe the traffic is by real users which don’t scroll down to the comments (and so the lazy loading of images by the browser won’t trigger).

@wjs018@piefed.wjs018.xyz might also be of interest for you.

The reason I create reuploads is, that these are scaled versions. Some of my posts are from pretty big images which would suck up traffic for people just scrolling through the feed. The original image is linked at the bottom of my posts (except for Pixiv, as their link are only valid when embedded in Pixiv itself), so the original source sites will see traffic at least from people who open my posts.

Good call. Here the link for those who are interested: shop

I didn’t notice it until I saw the image as the big preview in my feed.

I’m kinda undecided, on the one hand the message is clear, on the other hand this should do no harm and the artist is cited properly.

Seems so :D

So I’m not the only one who thought “wait a second, you seem familiar but at the same time not”.

I agree that most voters just vote from their feed without opening the post (this is also how I view content here). That is why I am surprised that the counter is much higher that the votes, as I expected the opposite (+ counts from instance auto caches). Then again, there might also a number of crawlers which consume posts on the Fediverse.

Regarding fedia: I too suspect the same issue as with Piefed. I wrote a post in the support community of fedia.io and mentioned one of the Mbin devs.
Also it seems that I hopefully don’t have to edit the post after its creation in the future anymore, as there is a PR for Mbin which will enable image-uploads + body via the API (currently the API is quite odd that a thread can be created with either a image or a body, but not both with the same request).

Thanks for the analysis. The caching of Lemmy might explain the jump of the counter a bit after the post went online.

Regarding Mbin: this is very odd. I myself am in Mbin (kbin.earth) and see the post body. Fedia.io seems to have an issue with it. But when I open a different post of mine on fedia.io, the body is displayed.

I might do another experiment with such counters later. As the counter is much higher than the interaction (likes + dislikes), I want to find out if really so many people opened the post or if frontends showed it for users which just scrolled through their feed.
To do that I will add a counter in a comment and at the top and bottom of a post body.

Thx.
(not as in “I’m the artist” but as in “for linking my choice”)

awwwww

I’m pretty sure it isn’t. The first image of this artist on Pixiv are from 2019. An the left leg is behind the fire.
