💜 On http://www.ladyteruki.com I've been writing (in French ; some of my readers use translation tools into their own language) about television from all over the world, for over a decade and a half !
Reviews, history, fun facts... over 6 700 publications have been made available for free, ad-free.

I'm a disabled person living under the poverty line, so I have a Ko-fi where people can support me : https://ko-fi.com/ladyteruki

There are MANY ways to support me :
- boost my content when you see it (it'll also be pinned)
- talk about my publications if you like them (and even if you don't ! constructive criticism is cool) so that others get to hear about what I do
- support me one time or regularly, on Ko-fi ( https://ko-fi.com/ladyteruki ), as it helps me pay my essential bills
- follow me on Ko-fi, which doesn't require you to contribute financially if you can't or don't want to (or not yet)
- comments ! I like them 💜
Support ladyteruki on Ko-fi! ❀. ko-fi.com/ladyteruki

Si vous voulez soutenir mes articles sur la télévision du monde entier, direction Ko-fi ! If want to support my articles about television from all over the world, head to Ko-fi !

Ko-fi

I moved to Ko-fi very recently due to uTip shutting down, and have lost about half of my contributors in the process. The entire Twitter mess is also not helping.
So I'm very thankful to everyone who tries to spread the word about me and my little Dotcom, or who supports me in any other way.

I'll be using this thread to post my publications and hope to see you on ladyteruki.com to talk about TV ! As I've never really promoted anything here so far, suggestions are welcome :)

(also I'm aware it's confusing that I use social media in English but write in French ; maybe this will evolve over time, but at the moment my disabled a** is not able to publish in two languages)

Should I post in this thread links to the 2023 publications to date ? (many of them don't have a Ko-fi page, since I was on uTip at the time)

I wonder whether it'll feel confusing and/or spammy... You tell me !

Yes, give us some links with publications to read
84.6%
No, only upcoming publications
15.4%

In January, I needed a fresh start. So I decided to change the contribution model for ladyteruki.com, for more flexibility. My first act in 2023 was to explain the motivation for that change, and outline how things would work from now on, since I'm a fan of transparency.
Note : at the time, the contribution platform was uTip ; due to its shutdown, we since have moved to Ko-fi, but the system remains the same.

@ladyteruki OK have to understand more how the site works... haven't found any subtitle yet
@DVerloes : oh, sorry about that, I can explain.
The episodes are at the bottom of each season. You click on the episode you want and it opens a page with the streaming video, or the download button. Then it opens a third page where you can pick the resolution.
@ladyteruki understood
@DVerloes : if you ever look at a page for another show, know that there's a clear difference between subbed and unsubbed episode.
@ladyteruki bit of both ?
@Pyou : sorry, what do you mean by that ?
@ladyteruki maybe not all of the 2023 publications so far but some of them ? Because it might be a lot otherwise idk
AprĂšs ça peut ĂȘtre compliquĂ© de faire une sĂ©lection mais peut ĂȘtre des choses assez variĂ©es/diffĂ©rentes les unes des autres
And then toutes les autres au fur et Ă  mesure que tu les publies ?
@Pyou : oh I see what you mean. Yeah maybe that's a good middle ground.
I was also thinking of not doing the thread all at once. That way I post 10, then there's 10 more a few hours later, you see the idea.
@ladyteruki je pense que ça dĂ©pend le but si c'est plus pour ĂȘtre exhaustive/suivi de toute ton annĂ©e yep tout postĂ© et peut ĂȘtre en petit groupe ça peut ĂȘtre pas mal, si c'est plutĂŽt pour donner un aperçu aux gens de ce que tu fais peut ĂȘtre mettre plutĂŽt une sĂ©lection de trucs assez variĂ©s comme ça hop bon aperçu effectivement sans noyer et ensuite ils auront tous les articles au fur et Ă  mesure
@Pyou : yeah when I first brought it up, I wanted basically to repost the entire year so far because I wanted to give direct access, with the hashtags for easy searchability (just in case !) to people who might not know me. And there'll be more and more of these people as I start to engage on Twitter less.
It's absolutely shameless self promo. But apparently most people are ok with the entire history (at least of 2023).
@ladyteruki ah oui avec des hashtags thématiques nom ou genre de la série etc ça peut te permettre d'atteindre plus de monde effectivement, bonne idée en vrai ! (Je le voyais plus du point de vue de personnes qui te suivent déjà, cerveau fatigué aha)
@Pyou : yeah my question might have been confusing, in that I was intending to do it for reachability, but asking my followers what would bother them.
