I mean... Rightfully so, because pirating is kind of illegal and not a good thing to do, even though I am the first to do it I know it's wrong. Anyways her recommendations are top tierhalf of my now-favourites are thanks to her.
(I don't know if it sounds rude what I meant to say was that I understand why she doesn't like us and I don't fault her for it)
Oh your all good I dpnt think you were rude at all!
I kinda understand why she dislikes us, but also she doesn't know any of our situations? Some of us quite literally dont have the money to spare or are hiding liking queer media from our family(or at least past catholic schoolgirl me did, I was terrified lol and now im pan what a turn in events lol)
Actually the rise in popularity in manwha/manga/anime/ect. Is thanks to pirating.
And also it allows people to read media that has been forgotten about or no one has bothered to officially translate.
Its also thanks to pirating that these artist have as big as a social media following that they do, bc most of us make the effort to support them in ways that doesn't cost us money.
I just think her black and white thinking is a little, sorry I dont really know the right word(outdated, ignorant, lack of understanding? Maybe?)
And ofcourse for Americans the possible upcoming increase in taxation of foreign goods/media
Also to reiterate, I dont think you were rude or anything negative! U seem like an awesome person! Just wanted to have a discussion with you
Okkk yeah i understand what you mean now
I pirate for the same reasons you said, I guess that from her pov if you can't pay for the chapters than you shouldn't read them at all. Which you're right it is kind of extremist.
But still she isn't going around reporting sites or people (from what I know, I may be wrong even if I hope I'm not), so that's why I still like her has a person, and especially her recs because she isn't ashamed to talk about the juicy details
Anywaysss thank you for sharing your point of view, I guess I didn't think about any possible good sides of pirating ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭

Okay so who’s got the recs to get us through this
