    It’s understandable when it comes from niche programs with solo devs. You are likely to be a degen when you spend your whole day in front of your computer. So you likely also have degen habits like the one here. But if it’s from group of devs then yeah that’s straight up irritating.

    Also you in the sense not you. English not my main language.

      Hur durr… You have different interests… Therefore degenerate…

      Do you even realize how incredibly stupid the whole concept of tribalism is?

        My understanding of degeneracy is well defined.

        degenerate behavior, especially behavior considered sexually deviant

        Fortunately I do not have any interest on little kids so yes it is deviating from my/societal interest therefore a degen.

          That’s where you’re wrong kiddo. The downvotes are because you are jumping to conclusion about lolis and other sexualization.

          The fascination with child personas for most anime fans are just that. It’s cute. The same ways dogs are cute, and cats are cute. I really doubt they have a fetish on children, although there are some that do. I really don’t think it’s right to mash them all together.

            Idk where you are from. But someone making it their hobby to watch cute little girls is considered quite creepy in my place.

            Ik that’s also a reason and i stand by my views which also happens to be the views of the general society.

              Hobby is anime which includes much more than “watching little girls”. With phrasing like yours it seems that you push all people like that like some creeps that just look at children.

              The idea that I’m trying to convey, is that personification of a technology with art into something cute, cool or whatever doesn’t automatically mean sexual deviation or anything along the lines.

              Also stereotyping is not exactly something you should defend with “general society”

                I agree where you are coming from but there is proper evidence of loli porn and it not being just a cool anime. I don’t have problem with anime.

                Also cosplaying a little girl is pretty weird no matter where you are from.

          Not sure why you’re getting downvoted for correctly using the term and calling out the degenerates who self-insert as little girls everywhere.

            Maybe because i worded it a bit like im attacking linux hobbyists. I am one myself. And maybe I also fit in a different definition of the term degen. But yeah I don’t agree with the one dude that thinks cosplaying little girls is a hobby lol.

            In a sense we all spend so much time virtually, sometimes it feels dystopian to me. Not saying it’s wrong but it’s fascinating for sure.
