Stop AI ads

[KingZantair]

I am all for the inclusion of banner ads, but AI ads are a new low I did not expect. I say no to AI ads asking me to get an AI girlfriend, and I hope any supporters or would be supporters like myself think the same.

 

[FreshJEEWElll]

I agree

 

[mylovenovels]

Ai = doomed world

 

[Exhausted]

Indeed. I understand the need for ads, servers cost money. But if this site is serious about trying to become a self-publishing platform, it cannot be running AI ads. What self-respecting indie comics author is going to want to publish on a site that has no problem shilling "AI girlfriends"?

 

[OisE]

Kids, don't do drugs AI ads, you will become addicted!

 

[mylovenovels]

They should have used the ads to promote their manga series.

edit: Someone didn’t get what I meant. I was saying they should use ads to promote their manga series to bring more people into reading manga. For example, imagine opening a site and seeing a catchy manga ad that catches your eye and makes you want to read it. @OisE

edit AGAIN; it can also be done on mangadex (useful ads = better life)

 

[AaronRyuchi]

absolutely agreed. mangadex running some non intrusive ads ? fine, I'll accept it - and they have been non intrusive! fucking AI ads? please have some self respect...

 

[Thank]

I also agree.

<- This one simple trick stops AI ads (tech bros hate it)!

 

[Lowfyie]

I just completely glossed over it as just a "weird AI ad" cuz Im so used to seeing them everywhere I forgot that this was mangadex I was seeing them in...

 

[SegmentedNodules]

It's absolutely indefensible to be posting AI girlfriend ads, especially at this point. If this is what it takes to keep the site alive then it should die.

 

[peppermilldetective]

The very LAST thing I expected to see was an ad for AI bullsh*t on a site like mangadex. I'd like to see them completely drop those ads as AI has no place here.

 

[mylovenovels]

There are kids who are being exposed to these weird AI generated ads, and that’s a real problem. A lot of these ads are inappropriate, misleading, or just plain strange, and kids shouldn’t be seeing that kind of content. If ads are going to be used, they should be properly moderated and used to promote actual content like manga series in a responsible way instead of pushing low-quality or questionable AI ads.

There are also ai apps that people use to remove yes remove peoples clothing.

i, as a sentient human, must agree.

Watch the mods/devs/whoever ignore this thread because they don't have the nuts to say "no, we want their money too much".

I'm genuinely hoping they don't, because I want to believe in the people behind Mangadex. Until then, i'll be having my adblock target the AI ads specifically.

Do you have some proof?

You seem kinda sus, ngl.

I think chatgpt would say the same thing.

 

[Thank]

@mylovenovels

Out of curiosity, why did you mark my reply as dumb? We seem to have a similar opinion on the matter.

 

[girlrotting]

can't agree more. even as a robotfucker i hate genai

 

[mzingalwa]

Keep this AI slop off mangadex. I am so goddamn disappointed in the site runners for allowing this crap to advertise here.
