Why is the anubis mascot an anime girl?
Go take a look at the author's websites/socials and it should become pretty obvious why.

Define kids? I know plenty of Gen X and elder millennials into anime
Only the ones that are still kids mentally.

There's no way to please some people.

> yes, it's a cartoon character; get over it I think it's cute. It wouldn't be a problem if it wasn't cute. It's inoffensive and doesn't get in the way of the software serving its function, the only critique I could do if I wanted to is people unfamiliar with the project would get a bit confused if they only saw the character for a split second: https://anubis.techaro.lol/ I think even Cloudflare gives you a second o…
I think even Cloudflare gives you a second or two to see what's going on before forwarding you to the page behind it Not if you have the right fingerprint - then you're not even aware the site is using CF.
I live in Eastern Europe, so for reasons beyond me that's never the case.
Either way, if I have to stare at something, I'd very much like to understand what it is: the difference between a CMD window popping up when you start your computer for a split second, vs it sticking around and you seeing that it's AMDAutoUpdate that you can track down to scheduled tasks and "C:\Program Files\AMD\AutoUpdate\AMDAutoUpdate.exe".

It's MIT licensed software. You can do whatever you want as long as you comply with the terms of the license. I can also choose to allocate my time wherever I want.
People are also free to call you out on your shit tastes though.

Not sure what you're referring to, or what you mean by "it's just art style". It's a style that is likely to clash with the website branding it precedes, in my opinion .
they're referring to the infamous Corporate Memphis style which is frequently used in big tech branding: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corporate_Memphis

That's too bad, I wonder what's so triggering about it. OSS projects are mostly done by people on their free time, they can do whatever they want with their mascots/branding/project. And those OSS projects tend to be significantly more respectful of users than the average modern software so on my side I tend to see those kind of harmless personal touches quite positively, sign of software that is made with the user i…
The problem is when those choices end up on about every project making up the open source ecosystem. Nor weird tastes and fetishes don't belong there.

Don't use the most used platform for blogging reach in 2025 because .0000001% of users are people you hate? Sounds silly. Don't use wordpress because a store I don't like uses it? I hate to tell you this but friend and foe are using Google search.. time to move on.
What does it tell about you when you dismiss concern about Nazis "as people you hate"? > Don't use wordpress because a store I don't like uses it? Store I do not like have not murdered half of my family.

WordPress isn't a platform. Also, downvoted for being a platform shill.
When you get more upvotes than downvotes you might be on to something
