I also indexed it
Oh, you work for a porn site?
Yes I have been running one since >15 years
I am refactoring it from ancient PHP legacy garbage to .NET
A porno millionaire, this chat truely has all types
>millionaire
it really just generates pocket money
the server costs are immense
For 1.3 mil vids I imagine.
you misread the number
😉

How are you not a millionaire with the ability to host that much video
I only host the metadata
I index all the major porn sites and offer a search over all of them
Oh, still, that must be a lot of passive income even with adblockers.
And shady deals with third parties
the amount of visitors has been declining a lot over the past years and the amount of adblock users since 2014 is x10
the problem is, the site doesn't run on mobile and most people watch porn with their phones nowadays. Also it started out as a tiny site, at launch there were 200k videos
the costs of hosting it in PHP are immense. I am refactoring the entire page including the 37 tubes that I am indexing
then, I will launch it under a new name again
Instead of ads, I am looking into the option of running javascript crypto miners
and sell statistical data to third parties
a porn botnet, so to say
I am also looking into having a much more structured database, you can imagine how a project looks after more than a decade of fixing shit
What data is collected and how much is it worth? Always felt the gold rush of easy money is dried up by now in that.
I honestly don't know yet. I can imagine that it might be worth something to porn production in order to observe trend development
it's most certainly not going to make me rich but I really like the ability of running complex queries over porn when I feel like jerking of to very specific and rare fetishes
I love this server
/g/ - selling porn data to their party sites
@porco you could have a bit cleaner code by doing `this.VideoTags.Intersect(gayValues).Any()`
actually no
that would be different
you're checking for partial matches too
nvm
If I tell you, I dox myself
But the new site will be hosted in Russia, with a .to Domain, so once it's live, I will post
how much will my porn experience improve
Does it have overwatch hentai
