Onionket 5 is This Weekend, August 19th and 20th
The 5th Onion Comic Market (or “Onionket”) is coming up this weekend, and the event catalog is available for everybody to browse now. Over a dozen artists, writers, coders, and more share their work with the world, free from the fear of censorship.
Onionket is a decentralized, censorship-resistant online doujin/art festival hosted exclusively in the Dark Web. Onionket gives artists a SIMPLE, FREE, and CENSORSHIP-RESISTANT way to distribute their work. Using an open-source program called “OnionShare”, each artist creates and hosts their own simple .onion website on the Tor network. Onionket collects and publishes a catalog of these links, allowing others to browse and access them.
Each site is totally under the artist’s control, making censorship impossible. And being on the Tor network means heightened privacy for fans and artists alike. Many artists also have support links and wallet addresses for Monero and other cryptocurrencies, should any followers feel like supporting their work.
There’s also the official Onionket 5 Livestream, hosted on PeerTube on Saturday, August 19th, from 2pm to 4pm, and again from 9pm to 11pm JST. Chat with circle owners and other participants will be available in the live window, as well as an OnionShare-powered Tor chatroom, a Session Closed Group, and an XMPP chatroom over Tor provided by our friends at Libreshack

The Onionket 5 catalog is now available on our main site, as well as mirrors on a noJavaScript page, a Tor onion site, and an i2p eepsite. Check out the circles, and if you see something you like, feel free to visit over the two days of the event.
Join Onionket, and together we can say NO to censorship

This isn’t about your use of Monero, this is about your plain as day advertisement of your interests. You’re acting like my implication (it was more than an implication, I used plain, candid language) follows from your use of Monero or comes out of the clear blue sky. This is absurd. It flows from the content on your site that you are advertising.
I’m very aware that drawings are victimless, fictional and so no harm is done. I don’t think it should be illegal for you to draw them and share them. But I’m also not stupid and am free to make my own judgments about people using my own intellectual faculty. If I took bets about the sexual proclivities of the fans of this type of art I’m certain I’d come out financially ahead. I’m sure there are naïve people out there who buy the whole “it’s just art” line. My interactions with you don’t lead me to conclude that you’re a naïve person.
The admin of this site is free to make his own determination about whether this is relevant, which is why I brought attention to it.
