It’s always an issue of service. Make it more available. Adjust the price. Increase content availability. It’s not a rocket science problem, it’s just a problem of corporate greed, and law abuse
animeflix wasn’t even the best anime streaming site in my opinion. Sorry it’s gone, but there’s excellent options out there right now.
Please don’t mention any good anime sites, i don’t want it to be taken down due to too many users.
I doubt Lemmy has the traffic or searchibility to make that a realistic concern.
And they’re literally on dbzer0 that has a wiki describing every streaming site.
I like aniwave and hasn’t let me down.
Yup Gaben called it, just look at Steam.

HAIL HYDRA
HEIRU HAIDURA!
Except if you’re Nintendo. They somehow managed to kill the emulating sphere.
Wouldn’t go that far… They knocked out yuzu’s money machine but i doubt it’s gone as an emulator and ryujinx exists
Well I hope you’re right
Im definitely right ;D. Yuzu is still as available as ever if me quick Grand line search counts for anything.
It was a sad period to see one thing that worked so great fragment like this
But that doesn’t please the shareholders or appease the apparently ever more concerning necessity for infinitely growing profits.
You are welcome
I thought they were talking about nyaa.si for a second but thankfully not.

As they continue to make life harder for paying customers more people will stop paying

I don’t disagree, but these weren’t paying customers
My point was that making life harder for non paying customers doesn’t negate the fact that they make life harder for paying customers.
I didnt even know this particular site existed, but who cares? I dun’ been piratin since the days of napster. I ordered shitty cds of DBZ from the internet when amazon was a fucking bookstore. besides, anyone who knows knows there’s a constant refreshed list of piracy sites. And anyone who knows knows how to search for "free media.
heck yeah" they do.

Metallica wants to know your location
Fuckin’ Lars, man
The band from Fortnite? Sleep with one eye open Lars.
BEER GOOD
Meanwhile, I just search “watch anime online” on ddg or yandex and check around, while ublock origins does its job and ensures I don’t get harassed by ads and shit clickjack javascript (the ones where clicking anywhere opens the ad). A good pirate never makes a single port his home
EDIT: Ok, something that really caught my attention in the article:
In April, (...) Japanese authorities arrested and prosecuted China-based owners of "one of the biggest illegal anime websites," B9GOOD.
- Now THAT is unexpected. China complying with Japanese copyright for a change?I’ve been using the same anime/manga torrenting site since the mid 2000s and I can’t believe it’s still up. Gonna be a sad day when it finally closes down.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Thousands of anime fans were shocked Thursday when the popular piracy site Animeflix voluntarily shut down without explaining why, TorrentFreak reported.
“It is with a heavy heart that we announce the closure of Animeflix,” the site’s operators told users in a Discord with 35,000 members.
Although Animeflix operators did not connect the dots for users, TorrentFreak suggested that the piracy site chose to shut down after facing “considerable legal pressure in recent months.”
Then in mid-May, rightsholders—including Netflix, Disney, Universal, Paramount, and Warner Bros.—won an injunction through the High Court of India against several piracy sites, including Animeflix.
On Reddit, some fans also complained after relying exclusively on Animeflix to keep track of where they left off on anime shows that often span hundreds of episodes.
“We hope the joy and excitement of anime continue to brighten your days through other wonderful platforms," Animeflix’s Discord message said.
