  That requires turning every read into a write – which is slow/expensive generally. (That might not matter much for Google – who try to record everything you ever do already, basically – but it matters for everyone else.)

  Also, it tends to promote spam and offensive niche content. kbin’s got a sidebar that tries to promote random low activity communities and posts, for example, and it’s almost uncanny how much crap it pushes up…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Most obscure movies you've ever seen?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Gundress (1999) is the most obscure anime movie I’ve seen and maybe also the most obscure movie overall – of stuff that was actually professionally made and shown in theaters, anyway. I posted about it in one of the weekly anime threads a couple months ago with some screenshots and additional details.

  Outside of anime, I’ve seen a number of cult films and non-English films that are probably obscure to English speaking audiences, but I have no idea how obscure they actually are. (The one above I know is obscure since it doesn’t even have an English Wikipedia page – unlike every other anime show and movie I’ve seen.)

  Some examples are Wonderwall (1968) with music by George Harrison, eXistenZ (1999), Cemetery Man (1994), and I Served the Kind of England (2006). I know at least one other person on Lemmy has heard of Cemetery Man since it was brought up in a thread around Christmas, but they were surprised I’d seen it.

  Primer (2004) and Dark Star (1974) also came to mind, but I’m not sure if those are actually obscure. They are interesting though.

  Maybe you’d be interested in “kinetic novels”? They’re basically VNs without choices.
