Do people actually dislike the trending tags thing or has hating it become a meme? Surely people can't be this upset about it.
But then again I set re621 to redirect the front page so I haven't really experienced how horrible this little list of ten or so tags is.

At first there were people who actually hate it because it showed tags they blacklisted and hated to see them trending.

I don't want this to come off as me venting, it's just something I see a lot online and in irl. I just wish that people all understood that depression wasn't just "being sad." Better yet, took mental health seriously and tried to put in the time to understand the basics of what their friends and loved ones might go through.

fr, ive struggled with depression and other shit in the past and its just annoying when people STILL believe its just being sad when ive deadass spent full on days in my bed doing nothing as i dont got the determination to even do anything. dont get me wrong, im absolutely balling rn, but GOD DAMN it isnt that hard for mfs to take a crisis thats plaguing possibly BILLIONS worldwide in a serious light.

ik im barely serious on this site but youre right and i completely agree with you

"\e[5m" (blinking mode) would be an interesting albeit esoteric 'emote username'.

I tried to make an SQL injection username joke but the DText preview refused to render it so I'm going to not.

    I mean, if you're really bothered by a block of inconsequential links on the page that has next-to-no content that you're usually only on for maybe a few seconds per visit, it's not particularly hard to just pop:

    .a-home .search-trend-list { display: none; }

    into your CSS.

    I don't want this to come off as me venting, it's just something I see a lot online and in irl. I just wish that people all understood that depression wasn't just "being sad." Better yet, took mental health seriously and tried to put in the time to understand the basics of what their friends and loved ones might go through. I personally see it with depression since I have it, I'd imagine. I also imagine people with say bipolar or ODD experience what I'm talking about as well, I just don't see it because that's not something I have. Again, I just want mental health taken more seriously, that's all.

    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    I tried tagging them 'fox' when I first started uploading but it kept getting removed so I stopped.
    Probably would've been more accurate to the designer's intentions to tag them fennec fox but I don't mind. Inspired by, not supposed to be, I guess.

    I don't want it to appear when I search fox tbh. Though fox -pokemon_(species) works fine even if it's tagged fox.

    Anyways I was curious what the search would return because there's an alias request to merge canid and canine.

    Still it's slightly weird that these tags shows up as trending all at once.

    I'm still thinking that there's some bot activity causing some of this. all three of these tags are getting way more traffic than they should be, given their population ranges from linux having ~360, to javascript having literally 5.

    like, did someone send out their AI agent to look up information on code and somehow it just ended up searching "JavaScript" on here literally thousands of times a day every day over the past 10 days?

    If Peace didn't get banned, I wonder if he would have stayed active till today. And by "stayed active," I mean posting FP.

    tryna perform a Goonvestigation™ to find who the fuck made this one oc i keep seeing with only 9 usages of their tag on e621 but several untagged usages of said character here. checking furaffinity posts just rarely brings up someone by the name of "RQ". i feel like a private investigator except its someone who i cant even trace down on furaffinity due to the search system not allowing me to search for TWO LETTERS placed together. if shit gets REALLY fucking dire then i might have to dm that one person that i asked about the kanye album before about the character cuz theyve done art featuring them. either that or dm the other 2 or 3 artists ive seen make art of them, but i REALLY dont wanna resort to being even more of an annoying ass. if anyone is willing to assist, then please let me know.

    to celebrate "cup" being the #1 tag on trending, i am buying a big cup of dr pepper from the gas station

    Woah, neat! Trending searches on the homepage. Let's check it out...

    Trending
    1. cup
    2. living_statue
    3. standing
    4. fox_mccloud
    5. water

    I think it's trying to send a message about barrel rolls, having been petrified, and staying hydrated / asking for some hydration.

    hi_res is the third most populated tag, with quite a margin between it and 4th. and it shows up the very top of the tag list on the post show page at all times (or at least every time I've ever looked at it), which makes the wiki page and search links the first and second hyperlink on the page after site navigation.

    if we did have a massive amount of just straight web crawlers, from the frequency and location of the links, that does seem like the kinda things that they'd gravitate towards, no?

    I guess that's possible.
    But it's fluctuating quite a bit – it may be #2 on the list today, but it was #30 yesterday, and #37 the day before that.

    Still something to keep an eye on, I suppose.

    @dba_afish: ...wouldn't it just be more practical to use a decoy account and the API? (and then i remember that the API has incredibly poor documentation, even 3rd-party, so it's pointless (and impractical))

    As opposed to what?
    Bots looking up a tag that's present on over half of the website?
