That is because images only load when you scroll them into view for the first time. Japan conserves bandwidth like that.

So, either scroll down all the way first, or write a userscript that instantly replaces all the JS bullshit with the real images. Actually, I did the latter, but I'm too lazy to publish anything.

Compared to Boorus? Come on. Pixiv at least has a good search, what does danbooru have? Tagging by hair color and TVTropes memes? Because what it doesn't have is internal consistency, meaningful tags and a search that doesn't return no results every time you didn't guess what the thing you're looking for is called down to every letter and correct grammatical form.

one thing i've noticed is that if it's a multi image you can go directly to it (for example, if you crash and restore session). if it's a single image it brings you back to the "main" image page where it shows the description and everything. i'm surprised they don't have super web 2.0 bullshit going with a responsive lightbox that auto loads a few images instead of just the next one if it's a multi image.

Same goes for Pixiv. Any advantages I might have not noticed?

>you do need to know exactly what you're searching for, but that's not hard to find out

It also needs to be exactly one of few selected subjects danbooru users decided I want to search for. And it's not hard to find out the popular phrasing - on Pixiv, where I can type in the non-exact term and check similar tags. On boorus, I'll get no results until I do some roundabout crap like:

1. Think of some previous picture of this kind.
2. Search by character(s) I think featured in it.
3. Browse through 10 pages of results to get to it.
4. Find out there's no tag for what I'm looking for.

I found it increasingly not worth it except for few specific cases.

I use the endless pages script which has been mentioned here before.

I'd very much appreciate an rss feed for my favorite artists (one for each). I know the recent posts by your favorites show on the front page, but it's not the same.

Finding covers or previews for stuff artists were selling in an old comiket sucks, since I can never find scans or anything.

This is a pretty big deal. If you browsed the boorus before Pixiv arrived you would know how many contributors exist on danbooru who have access to giant bookmark lists of artist sites and artist meta-sites and who upload pictures from those.

When Pixiv arrived, it largely diminished the need for such actions, but there are still a lot of artists who post some things only on their own website or on sites intentionally-distanced from pixiv because of their elitist attitude (Think: artists who won't use deviantart because of its "reputation").

In short, gelbooru will always be a inferior ripoff because of the userbase.

You go to gelbooru when you want art without any filtering (like trying to read a thread where tripfags are having a party).
You go to danbooru when you want moderately better stuff and less shitty stuff but to possibly miss things you want to see (like trying to read a thread and you have tripfags filtered).

I don't see any reason why anyone would use it with their limited search and restricted tags when Gelbooru contains complete Danbooru database AND MORE. I guess it boils down to booru elitism.

You can do that on danbooru too if you really need to see all the pictures people uploaded and had deleted.

Yes, it contains the Danbooru database and 50% more shit.

I've never saved a ``Gelbooru exclusive'' image in my life, because that's how shitty they are.

All the reverse image searches I've ever done have a link to Danbooru.

Danbooru doesn't have that shitty "Wait 5 seconds to skip this ad". Yes, I have Adblock, but that won't let me skip the stupid screen.

Danbooru pagination (1 2 .. 502) is better than Gelbooru's (1 2 3 fuck you i won't tell you what the last page is) IMO.

Those are my reasons.

Yes, Danbooru's stupid tag search restriction is fucking annoying, I use Gelbooru for searching images and Danbooru for browsing.

If you can't skip the loli/shota restriction on

So many people ITT underestimate the usefulness of aggregator sites. I'll give you reasons why you should use and support those sites:

Pixiv artists have a nasty habit of deleting their pictures or accounts without warning. Pictures saved on aggregator sites stay safe even if they get deleted from pixiv. To give you a perspective: current pictures tagged with bad_id (which means pictures that is no longer on pixiv) on danbooru amount to 140,000; that is 140,000 pictures saved from obscurity.

Secondly, many pixiv artists have their own sites/blogs and not everything on those sites/blogs get posted on pixiv. Aggregators did a great job collecting images from those countless artist sites. Or even from another art sites such as deviantart and nicoseiga.

Then, there are these things like tags, pools, and wiki. They make searching for overly-specific images easier.

And finally, there's the awesome translation system. You can get manga/doujin and even individual images translated without altering the images. This is especially useful for SFW doujin that is not lewd enough for hentai sites.

See? They're not so bad after all, eh?

I use Danbooru because of all the tools that make using it a good choice and the fact that it's properly tagged and has a decent amount of art for most things.

Technically same resources (Firefox extension, imgbrd-grabber) work on other boorus but since I like my pictures to be somewhat tagged I rather just use Danbooru.
