Yes, I watched it (the first season at least) and quite liked it. It's what brought on this post basically. I had decided to watch it when I was looking for my next idol anime after my "gateway drug" Zombieland Saga, and the connection to that via Minami Tanaka, and also that I vaguely remembered Yoshino Aoyama was part of it, were what gave the impulse.

There are also a few Wake Up, Girls! anime movies that I couldn't watch yet, and a continuation series "Shin Sou". The drastically altered character designs in the latter unfortunately felt off-putting to me, after the more realistic style of the first season.

Wake Up, Girls! was an idol unit active from 2014 to 2019 whose leader was none other than Yoshino Aoyama, voice of Hitori "Bocchi" Gotou in Bocchi the Rock. In this performance of the opening theme from Restaurant to Another World, originally a collaboration with Mayn, she's the one singing the very first line, with the light blue ribbon.

Far from the absolute nobody before Bocchi the Rock she's sometimes painted as (also by her own presentation), she had before already led this unit throughout the years, culminating in this final concert in a brimful Saitama Super Arena in front of about 35,000 people (full concert playlist) that wowed her senpais Rie Takahashi and Reina Ueda.

During the unit's active years, she also voiced the character based on herself in various accompanying anime productions.

After the unit disbanded after this concert, the only other member that continued to be significantly active in the idol and/or anime space AFAIK is Minami Tanaka, who e.g. went on to become part of Franchouchou in Zombieland Saga.

Grave of the Fireflies is too sad to cry to. It's just pure despair, slowly killing you emotionally.

Then ask your instance admin to update to 0.18.4. I don't see this bug using the same Jerboa version on my home instance, which has already updated.

[-] awdsns@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago

Yes, when you open the homepage of your instance in a browser and scroll to the bottom, it should say something like "BE: 0.18.4".

If it says that and you still get this bug, it's a new one.

Which Jerboa and Instance backend versions are you seeing this with? There was an issue in the backend that could produce this behavior but should be fixed in 0.18.4: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/3823

Which front end would show both names? On (mobile and desktop) web and in Jerboa I only see the display name if it's set. And the only limitation seems to be that a leading @ is not allowed.

Tbh I think the display names as they currently work are dangerous. What would prevent me from setting my display name to nutomic@lemmy.ml? Most front-ends would not show that I'm actually not you at first glance.

Edit: Misread the question as being about display names. Full unicode support for usernames would be even more dangerous, basically opening the door to unicode homograph spoofing on that level too.

I was thinking of something like that too, but probably never would've gotten around to implement it myself, so thanks! Could you put your script on Github or something maybe?

Also it would be great if it could copy at least top-level comments by OP, because that's often used for linking to a source.

I was going to just manually make a post for seasonal episodes as I watch them, but if you want to automate it, why not?

Just maybe initially limit it to the more popular shows, otherwise I also think it might overwhelm this still small community.
