I made a porn scroller, AMA. - Lemmy.World

Great quality curation my fellow degenerate
Is it different than scrolller?
Pretty similar concept I suppose. This is less bloated since I don’t have any intention of monetizing it. Just doing it for fun as a learning exercise.
Don’t you lie to us, you only did it for the better quality faps.
I’ll admit that may have been a factor.
A faptor, if you will
That pun must have been hard to fapricate!
Would it be possible to prefetch the next especially when in autoscroll mode?
I’ll work on it, thanks for the suggestion.
how did you get into autoscroll mode?
There’s a toggle which displays pause symbol when the gif is in loop and play symbol when it autoscrolls
got links to recommended scrollers ?
Pretty sure PH already did that? I’ve heard something about that before.

Been using this for a while since you originally posted it!

Love gif style porn and this is one of the best ways to mow through them.

I’m pretty much a monkey who’s too distracted by tits but is there any features/tips for using it I may have missed in pre-nut fog?

Glad you’re enjoying it!

Well I just implement a chat feature which I was intending to be used by couples to explore kinks, so you can check that out if it’s relevant to you.

I’ve been using it since you first posted it as well and seriously, this is awesome. It mostly saves time for me, so that I’m not trying to browse through sites to find something interesting. And the fact I can go straight to the full video from the gif on your site is great.

Thanks for your work!

Thank you for your kind words!
I would be extremely cautious with that. Unless you have plans for human moderation, the chances it gets abused are high.
Hadn’t really thought about that. Will disable it for now.
Yeah its the unfortunate reality of nsfw chats.
Wow amazing I will check this out later
Do you support or pay sex workers?
No I don’t. The site is just an aggregator, isn’t making any money, and doesn’t host any of the actual content.
Well that’s shitty
Do you pay for any of the content you consume on Lemmy?
Yeah that was like one of the first things I did was pay for Lemmy… if I see anybody creating content that I like I also pay for that. I have found musicians on Lenny that I now pay, yep. Sure fuckin’ do… Do you?
Then go find the pornstars that you see on the linked aggregator by OP and pay them for your faps.
Give me 5 bucks for this comment please
do the sex workers pay for his coding/hosting costs?
how do I make it autoscroll?
There is a toggle next to the mute button.
Why?
I don’t understand the question
I think he’s asking why he made a porn scroller
Yeah not a clue. Anyone else understand the question?
I wanted to learn how to build websites and how to deal with traffic. Couldn’t think of anything else that a lot of people would actually use.
Is there no way to select multiple categories? Seems like it would be more fun to see a mix of gay, straight, and trans.
I often wonder why I never see any sites with like a bi/pan mode that just lets it all fly and shows you everything on the site all at once. Having to constantly switch back and forth throws off my battle rhythm. :\
Right. Every site assumes you can only be into one thing. They don’t realize how many silly little sluts just want to see it all.
Now that you mention it…
Currently no, but it’s on my todo list.
That’s awesome. And to the OP comment, great idea!
Now that you mention it…
Is this just old Tumblr, or does clicking on that link ensure I burn out every single dopamine receptor in my brain?
The flip is very sensitive, even when sliding to the left it scrolls, second there is no controllable video slider
Where do you get the data? Another website API you plug into
Can you make it move you to a different page than google when you click 'i am under 18‘?
Yes. Now redirects to about:blank.
Like what? Pornhub?

This is great, and free.

So… what’s the catch?

Well there is a case to be made that watching porn may not be the optimal way to spend your time.

Why doesn’t a mouseover show the image’s description? The alt text is there, but it doesn’t show.

How are the images indexed for search? I’ve seen a number of repeats, images that aren’t related to the term, and some that aren’t porn (logos)

Any way to see other search terms that might show up the current image? Like 2 or 3 terms, just in case?

You’ve heard of doomscrolling, now get ready for GOONscrolling
Hey this is pretty cool! Does anybody know why on mobile firefox the gifs slow down when looping? More accurately the framerate drops after the first playthrough. Happens on every gif. Any suggestions?
Yeah if anyone knows what could be causing this I’d be very happy to know. Seems to only happen if the video is unmuted.
How did you even come up with this idea?
