Boosts
This is funny, I can imagine someone in corporate suited up and everything looking at a demo on a meeting room and the mascot on a huge screen. Honestly, I would have looked for a way to customise it or hide it somehow before showing it at work.
I get it that you want to be a worker with a good idea, but after that reaction, I would not give a fuck anymore about what this company needs.
I worked at ‘company’ once that felt bad because it used Blender, not an expensive 3D software, so they bought 3DsMax license only for it to lie down and being unused, but the boss ego was a bit less scratched by using Free stuff. Like those people are fucked up.
This is the 2nd and last time I will ever recommend Anubis anywhere at work to deal with bots because of how unprofessional, un-serious and weird others perceive it.
tell them its professional enough for kernel.org, qemu.org, the freedesktop gitlab server and several other serious software projects.
but I understand it. I just find tye priorities funny.
what kind of company is this? do you believe your work benefits the public? if yes, have a look at gandalf from nerdvpn, but I guess they’ll laugh just the same. if no, you are better off not recommending them effective bot blockers.
It’s like homophobia, but whimsyfunphobia
That is indeed work, yeah
I install gimp on my work PC. Anubis isn’t weird enough.
they see a mascot that dont like and then dont use that software because that? how unprofessional
Wait to their reaction when they find out that sports teams mascots are just corporate fursonas.
Professionalism = prioritizing getting the job done.
These people are incredibly unprofessional.
That’s the business model: make it free to use for any purpose, but charge to change the mascot.
The mascot is part of the repellent. It will repeal the tech and finance bros.
appeal to tech bros 😁 *
The Issue: When I send my coworkers to anubis.techaro.lol/docs/admin/botstopper they find the mascot and URL weird.
You’ve decided without listening to the responses
Botstopper doesn’t have the .lol domain, and doesn’t use the anime cat girl splash
It’s not even expensive
You don’t have to tell your peers it is just a rebadged version of the same website, just say “look I’ve found another one that does the same thing but without the domain and splashscreen probs you complained about”
This was literally just set up in response to this post. Check out the posts earlier from @Xe about 16 hours before yours.
OP, anubis is not a catgirl. She is a jackalgirl.
Different type of cute is still cute…
Life is too short to be all serious all the time, love Anubis logo!
Duckduckgo searching it, Botstopper, running Anubis in back and by the same author. I assume the website is theirs
If you want serious and professional: Pay for it!
If you want it free, you get the anime girl.
This is an exclusive choice.
Isn’t it MIT? Can’t you just… Change the image?
Yeah but you need to sell that solution to the team before you’ve swapped the image, and that’s not their absolute favourite thing. It only meets 99% of their criteria.
Yep, or you can pay for the commercial version that has that feature built in. It’s up to you if you want to do the right thing or not.
This is brilliant.

Might be worth a look.
I want to remind everyone to keep on topic. Disparaging people for whatever reason is not on topic.
