I've seen the negativity towards the anime stuff and I don't think it's THAT bad if the pic has characters with realistic clothes and a "street wear" vibe. As you mentioned, design starts with a drawing, but I can also see why some people would rather keep the sub-lemmy "real pics only", either way. Instead of complaining that much they could contribute π
Run your community how you want but dont pretend drawings of cartoon girls counts as streetwear by anyone's stretch of the word.
Futurama - "The writing staff held three Ph.D.s, seven master's degrees, and cumulatively had more than 50 years at Harvard University. Series writer Patric M. Verrone stated, "we were easily the most overeducated cartoon writers in history"."
Anime- cartoon porn of adolescents for weeb losers.
Same stuff, huh? Lemmy is starved for content because all of the normal people are leaving when everything is overrun by anime weebs.
Take it easy man, I'm a huge Futurama fan, not a big anime fan at all, but this still seems ok just for the sake of inspiration.
I wish it was more real-world stuff, but occasional cartoon inspiration is ok too. Don't give people a negative impression of Lemmy, particularly as a mod.
