I blame rtxn@lemmy.world’s comment for giving me this idea.
Why does everything in the FOSS sphere have to be made overtly creepy by adding anime teenage schoolgirls?
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:
Clicking that image will take you to her Wikipedia article.
If you think this is restricted to FOSS, you are gravely mistaken https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/OS-tan
Wait, there’s actual text there?
All I see in Voyager is an empty text box.
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.
The Debian logo is very similar to the progynova logo (progynova is estrogen). The above image is probably inspired by that.
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.
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.
Thank you for OP for reminding me to defrag my HDD
