MMD discussion and sharing

0EIK8BR1E5T said:
I saw you guys talking about Pikpak, so I'll add my two cents. Haven't you noticed something odd? Why do they keep uploading to Pikpak, putting up with that clunky interface and slow download speeds?

The answer is Pikpak's referral program.

To get the files they upload, you absolutely must sign up for Pikpak. The 'free account' you create this way comes with a tiny 6GB storage capacity. Then, you have to move the files over to that tiny storage space before you can download them.

Here's where the problem lies. Most files uploaded by others will be massive. Collections spanning tens or even hundreds of gigabytes are commonplace.

(This massive upload capability exists because when you upload a file, pikpak checks its hash value. If it already exists on their servers, they add it directly to your storage.)

Faced with such massive collections, you'll likely grow frustrated with the free account's limitations and end up paying for a premium account.

This is precisely their goal. Once you pay, pikpak pays the uploader a certain percentage of credits, which the uploader can then cash out.

There's no need for referral codes like we commonly know. They simply upload massive files using the convenient method mentioned earlier and post links where many people can see them.

Simple and clever, right?

Of course, not every pikpak uploader on this forum is like that. Some genuinely share files with us out of kindness. But are they all like that?

Oh, sure, you might think that.

"So what's wrong with that?"

Just because the upload method is simple, or because they profit from it, doesn't make it inherently evil. Yes, that's true.

But I hope you'll consider it differently. If you're in a position to pay for a pikpak premium account, why not use that money to support the content creators instead?

Is going through the middleman really necessary? The way to directly support the creators of the MMD videos and content you truly love, and to watch videos quickly and easily without waiting for a 'hero', is right next to you.

I want you to know that.

Let me play an advocatus diaboli a little bit, for I afraid we might cherish tactical victory over strategical one.

Pikpak is a business, so it has to make money from it's users. Any user who has a free account makes negative impact on this business. Imagine you downloaded 2Tb worth of the same rendered koikatsu scene with different characters. You paid nothing, but Pikpak has to pay it's hardware provider for that traffic. If there are many users like this, Pikpak goes bankrupt with all those precious collections. Hence 6Gb limit, hence low-speed downloads, etc. etc., anything to reduce the financial damage from free users. Unless you're a stalwart gooner with a bunch of accounts, proxies, HDDs, you don't do much harm to their business. (I personally cannot consume gigabytes of data daily, so a few free accounts is all i need.)

Premium users are blessed ones. They keep the business alive and more importantly compensate expenses for free users. Pikpak has two main ways to make profit:
- increase the prices (so premium users would pay more for the same service)
- increase the pain of free users (so they either stop using pikpak or buy premium)
The first option has an obvious limit (if the price is too high, some users will quit and overall revenue will go down), the second one is more suitable to make financial reports look "better". In case of crisis free users will be the first ones to take a hit. As long as there are enough premium users, free users can "enjoy" the current restrictions.

Unfortunately, I can argue against calling them greedy. Their business is risky, since they profit from piracy and porn, so the margin profit is also should be high. Like, why keep it running with a high chance to be arrested when you can get the same salary as a salesperson?


Alright, enough with economics! The main point of this rant. I wouldn't even lift a finger to write this post, but a miracle has happened today.

A hero posted a collection of mmd-videos and to my surprise there were works of an artist that actively monitors this thread and many other sites to send takedown requests. I thought "oh my!" and immediately started downloading everything. At some point Pikpack limited me for no reason, but it turned out to be a bug.
(I hope I gave enough signals for those who like me was searching for these works!)

I don't know how DMCA works, I never read EULA/ToS, but given what kind of stuff I've already seen on Pikpak, it has different rules than Pixeldrain and Gofile. Which brings us to the point: it's always good to have backup options.

---- end of an advocatus diaboli mode ----

Well, shitpak is a hilarious name, that made my day!

6Gb limit is horrible, download speed is horrible, but what makes the most torture of using this service is a biblically accurate reimplementation of explorer.exe on a Pentium-4-powered PC with dying HDD into my browser. Every click is a torture!

I don't understand this community's aversion to torents. They don't get dmca'd and you can pick and choose or download everything. There's enough people here that they could be seeded forever even if most people only download one or two from a collection. I've been seeding the collection torrents from f95 for years now and people are still downloading them e.g. this HDL collection torrent from 2023:

Sorry to ask here, but does anyone know any sites for Pixeldrain bypass?

I used https://pixeldrain-bypass.cybar.xyz/ previously, but the generated URL no longer works for me. Instead, the URL opened https://gamedrive.org/.

Does the site not work anymore? Or did I mess up something?

None of publically available bypass websites or widespread Cloudflare methods work anymore. They all are based on abusing Cloudflare workers, and PD banned those from their side. You need to set up and use some actual proxies if you want to go beyond 6gb limit without paying.

for me to bypass the mega and pixeldrain download limit, I just use a VPN and switch IP and location, and no, not those free VPN that is garbo, I just actually pay for a subscription VPN. Which one? I use nordVPN but to be honest, any of the paid VPN is about the same thing its just preference.

For those who dont wanna spend money on VPN then IDK after that because of no experience.

It's truly laughable how an insect that merely sips the dripping water dares to complain about its source.

Why do I use Pikpak? The answer is simple. Because the majority of major Chinese uploaders—those who do temporary releases—mainly use Pikpak for sharing. That's all there is to it.
And this doesn't apply only to MMD. In the world of manga, videos, and all kinds of content, Pikpak has become the dominant sharing platform.

If you want to receive shared files from Pikpak, then Pikpak is the most convenient option. That's why I pay for it.
It has nothing to do with affiliate programs or anything like that—I just pay to make the file transfers smoother.
Once I've received the files, I move them from Pikpak to another service or my own storage as needed.

And if I ever decide to be the one uploading, I'll use Pikpak simply because it's easy to make things public there. That's all.
Why would anyone go through the trouble of re-uploading files to another service for the sake of complete strangers?

And this isn't only about this thread.
Would you go around other threads yelling at uploaders using Mexa or Kat, demanding, "Use another service because it's inconvenient for me"? How absurd.

It's literally the "beggar's self-indulgence."

I wonder if anyone would like to share an updated collection for the following two artist. I know there is a k-site page for the latter one but I really have no idea of what file I could download from there.

Guys please let's avoid using Pikpak for sharing...(if possible)
Why bother with Pikpak when we have so many better options like:
Mega.nz
Pixeldrain
Fuckingfast.co (No subs needed to DL)
Gofile (No subs needed to UP/DL)
Transfer.it (No subs needed to UP/DL)
Kio.ac (No subs needed to UP/DL)

as Mr.0EIK8BR1E5T has said in #16,290
If your goal isn't to make money off other people's content by forcing them into paid plans, please consider using another sites above instead of pikpak.

Of course I know that not everyone who shares files via Pikpak is doing it to make money — from what I've seen most of Pikpak users here seems to be great persons. but you should know that unlike the other platforms, Pikpak links are just way too inconvenient and restrictive for people who aren't signed up or who stay on the free plan
(I'm one of the people who instantly skips Pikpak links)

I basically never or rarely see anyone complaining about the big three we usually use here: Mega (rarely), Pixeldrain (rarely), and Gofile.
But I constantly see people complaining about Pikpak and Baidu links, begging for mirrors on PD or Gofile.

I see these:
"Can someone mirror this [Baidu] link to Pixeldrain or Gofile ?"
"Can someone mirror this [Pikpak] link to Pixeldrain or Gofile ?"

but I don't see these:
"Can someone mirror this [Pixeldrain] link to Baidu or Pikpak?"
"Can someone mirror this [Gofile] link to Baidu or Pikpak ?"

You would agree that you've seen these types of requests, where people ask to mirror Baidu and Pikpak links to Gofile or Pixeldrain, and this is obviously an indicator of which platforms people are not using and which platforms they are using.

When that many people are asking for mirrors and not willing to pay for premium… there's clearly a reason.

With Baidu, personally, even if I wanted to subscribe, I can't easily do it from my country. I think you're all like me—"just can't subscribe to Baidu".

but with Pikpak I totally could pay for premium — I just don't want to. Why would I, when I'm already paying for Mega and Pixeldrain premium and they're way more convenient?

So if you actually want to share stuff and make it easy for everyone, please consider using a platform that's convenient for all of us.

I pay for Mega and Pixeldrain premium myself and love them, but for anyone who can't (or doesn't want to) pay for premium—Gofile, Transfer.it, and Kio.ac are great free options that work well for most people.

in terms of the transfer.it website, I don't know why but every time I try to use that website it gives me an error

Eh? a simple metaphor goes that far in your eyes? I thought he was being a bit flowery but not excessively so. Also, I would guess english is not his native language and maybe (unlikely) he is typing in his native language which gets translated to english for us.

Even if I'm wrong about all of that, I think overreacted.... his point was basically "Don't whine or be ungrateful when you're getting stuff for free" which I generally agree with. As for 'pikpak', apparently it's very popular in China but outside of it, not so much. That is where this disconnect is happening I think, not sure though.

....

In any case, I'm grateful there are people that provide any content on any platform.

The PikPak scam is actually causing the thread to becoming nigh unusable for those not profiting from it or outside of china.

Please. I'm requesting a sticky rule about mirroring pikpak content and not leaving the raw, unusable links here. It's getting ridiculous.

Overall, I agree with Mioxoxoxoxo's opinion.
People seem to be misunderstanding something: even if you ask someone who uploads via Pikpak to use another platform, they will never re-upload it elsewhere.

Here are the file sizes of some recent shares uploaded through Pikpak:

Suzumeisgood + 4 other artists' collection: 4TB

kone MMD COLLECTION: 16TB

MMD COLLECTION: 15TB

Just look at the sizes. We're talking terabytes.
How on earth is anyone supposed to upload this to Mega, Pixeldrain, or Gofile?
Has anyone here ever uploaded and shared more than 1TB at once on any of those three platforms?
As far as I remember, no.

No one is uploading huge files to anything other than Pikpak, yet somehow the logic is:
"It's hard for me to download from Pikpak, so you should upload to another platform instead."
Seriously? That's extremely selfish.

Back in November, I uploaded Suzumeisgood 81–83 to Kio because someone requested it.
It was 36GB in total, and it took 40 minutes just to download it from my cloud and re-upload to Kio.
If I had shared it through Pikpak instead, it wouldn't have even taken 5 minutes.
From now on, if I'm sharing anything over 10GB, I will absolutely use Pikpak.
If your time is valuable, then my time is valuable too.


There are many people here who dislike Pikpak, but there are also many who use it without any issues.
Attacking Pikpak uploaders just because you can't download from Pikpak only ends up causing inconvenience for everyone else as well.

Can you specifically explain how Pikpak has devastated this thread and made the situation serious?
Aren't you just talking nonsense because you're angry that you can't download from Pikpak?

You once boldly told a heavy uploader who used Workupload, "You can't preview videos on Workupload," and told them not to upload via Workupload.
Is Pikpak the target this time?
