          every major tech company has an anime mascot. Here’s AMD’s one: https://moeverse.xyz/wiki/Amada_Kokoro

          And here’s the one Microsoft made for Internet Explorer:

            Wow! It’s even got a backstory and all.
            Doesn’t make the product more appealing though. The only thing that does that for me is the Datasheets.

        That’s what makes me dislike more and more the FOSS community because it seems none of the FOSS devs have seen a women in their life and have very sus kinks.

          This is how marketing works in Asia. Major corps do it every bit as much. You have anime mascots or you don’t sell to anyone under 40, from my understanding.

          It’s a meme, ya dunce. I don’t think anyone is furiously jerking it to the Debian logo just because it has some poorly drawn animeys next to it.

        The Debian logo is very similar to the progynova logo (progynova is estrogen). The above image is probably inspired by that.

          Yet, I don’t see a direct relation between (trans) gender and sexuality. (I’ve seen a meme making fun of the similarity of the logos and packaging before, so I see the point).

      This promotes pedophilia.

      Idk why so many grown nerds insist on sexualizing little girls.

      Edit: wow turns out this instance is full of pedophiles. Gross.

        I’ve seen this image pop up now and then for like 10+ years as a meme in the Linux community and never not once did I think this.

        Obviously if that’s a confirmed intention behind it, then it’s not okay, but I think you’re overthinking it, it’s just how anime designs are, the characters often look agelessly young.

        These look like pretty average anime characters to me and don’t strike me as implying something problematic in the slightest.

        Idk I’m an outside observer to weeb shit, but that’s how I always interpreted it at least.

          That is not ok either. Children adult sexual or romantic relationships are not ok because of the power dynamic. Both of legal rights and emotional and mental maturities.

              Doesnt matter if theyre gay/straight, this is very obviously sexualizing minors. The skirts blowing up is a dead giveaway.

              The perspective of the image is voyeuristic. The person criticing the trend is talking about that issue.

          If you’re an adult, and you’re interested in children’s romance thats the same issue. In fact, all content directed towards older audences featuring this kind of stuff, is directed to, and made by pedos.
