The thread about the early vocaloid fandom inspired me to make a new thread to discuss vocaloid fansites: blogs, forums, etc. Do you visit any other fansites aside from 39chan? Are there any old sites you used that are still up?.

 No.607

im hyperfixated on sonika so i made a website for her. might also make one for oliver.

I'm really bad with IBs, sorry! I meant to link to /g/'s Indie Web thread and that's why I deleted my original post hoping no one would see it, orz.

Re-write: I usually use @PositiveVSynth (English) and @SpeechSynthNews (Japanese, but they cover way more synths and get to news quicker) on Twitter for vocal synth news, and Vocaverse.network as a modern alternative to VocaloidOtaku (RIP), there's also https://vocalsynthretailers.wordpress.com and https://vocaliveparty.carrd.co/.
I'm also working on an indie & uncensored equivalent to the Vocaloid Wiki right now.

Hello, yes I am. Thank you so much for your interest! I *finally* got the front page done. I feel bad because I wanted to have around 5-10 finished articles before making it public but it turns out that might take longer than I expected, as I was never a wiki editor or moderator prior. When it is ready I'll probably make a thread in /leek/ dedicated to it. If anyone's interested I could also either open it early or make you a Member so you can read and edit pages while it's private.

Should I include 39chan on the front page? I'm considering it, but when the wiki has a decent amount of content I might make a Twitter account for the wiki for promotion too (since wikis aren't social media and lack social functions they're less likely to be toxic I feel, outside of Talk pages there's not much user interaction, and the more editors the better especially considering the vast amount of content to cover in the VSynth scene. I originally wanted to make a Discord too but I probably won't to prevent toxicity, minors will probably just lie about their age.)

I also want to promote other producers and indie fanpages too, if anyone wants their sites here let me know! (Also, owner of the Sonika Revolution site, let me know if you *don't* want it on the front page)

Yeah, luckily a bit is archived on IA according to my mutual but it's not the same..
I think the site owners still have the site data though (https://x.com/chestnutscoop/status/1763212498600104443) which almost makes me want to ask if they are willing to give me the data and have me host it myself.
They say "Now retired from MMD community" in their Twitter bio too, I'm wondering if this is another case of toxicity chasing out good creators like Chorva and Shg/Hiomaika lol

There's also this: https://mmd-database.jimdofree.com possibly made by the same people too (https://www.reddit.com/r/mikumikudance/comments/1c0jxsj/would_you_like_a_new_mmd_and_mme_archive_website/) but there's way less content and no effect information ATM.

I also had the idea that in the far future when my main wiki dedicated to documenting Vocaloid music/culture/software has a decent amount of content, I should open two "sister wikis" , the "Indie MMD Wiki" (there's a Fandom MMD wiki for now but Fandom is notoriously bad, I'm surprised they're even allowed to document NSFW models lol) and "Vocaloid Assets Wiki" for hosting things like VSQXes and fanmade character art(?) (idk what to call it) like https://vimalion.pro and the VOICEROID fandom's tachi-e as a Western equivalent to sites like https://www.vsqx.top and NicoNicoSeiga (especially now that westerners can't access NNSeiga) but I think I should focus on my first wiki first.

One thing i'd personally like to see is a website that works as a database of UTAU voicebanks but isn't a wiki. Something visually similar to https://mmd.gg/db/model/ but for voicebanks instead of models and without that horrendous "make a discord account to download our shit" rule that site has.

Eww why do they do that lmao. Maybe for gatekeeping reasons, but tons of annoying toxic people use Discord too so it won't even work.

That's a really good idea though, this kind of reminds me of the MYCOEIROINK site! (MYCOEIROINK is basically like the UTAU of TTS/talk synths in my eyes): https://coeiroink.com/mycoeiroink/list

one thing i keep coming across while trying to find vocaloid sites for this thread are these decade old fansites made on free website makers by children.
https://vocaloidkfansite.yolasite.com/
it reminds me of a less primitive geocities/angelfire and makes me wonder where the creators are now, if they still care about vocaloid now that they are presumably in their late 20's if not early 30's, etc.

it has this authenticity that you don't see on 'modern' free website makers like neocities.

I wish fansites, not just vocaloid ones, would make a comeback in the form of forums, imageboards or resource sites (or whatever category the sonika one falls into). Vocaloid fans are lucky to have 39ch, Utaforum and Vocaverse i guess but social media as a place to discuss fandoms fucking sucks.

VNN has been inactive since 2021 while the site remains up and the same happens with the latter although it has been inactive for longer (2017). I know that social media changed how people consume their news but i'm surprised they kept these up instead of shutting down like MikuFan.

It was opened just before Mikunopolis, and I believe encouraged by SPJA (the non-profit that organizes Anime Expo). It's also the reason Jakarta was chosen as the first location for Miku Expo due to a fan poll that ran there, something like the "Find Me" campaign. There was also a bingo event at some point for prizes that I think broke more than once? Maybe one or two separate giveaways for concer tickets. As I remember it, it was a cobbled together PHP mess that barely worked, and was mostly centered on being arecommendation engine for PVs. There wasn't much to see though since it was basically a top 100 collection of the usual popular hits. I remember thinking it was deader than Google+ in its twilight days.

I've heard some anons in here talk shit about the moderators on UTAForum, but honestly i've been there for nearly a decade and never ran into anyone i've wanted to punch like on VV or the vocaloid subreddit so i wanna say that its one of the sanest Vocaloid forums.

Years ago there was a site called VocaloidOtaku which hosted a forum and the Vocaloidism blog also had one (which i personally thought was the best) but both are dead and gone.

>39

39chan is fine for casual Vocaloid talk, new releases, news and original content and it helps that a couple western producers like Majin and Tako, and the voice provider for Namine Ritsu gave it a boost in popularity recently. Every once in a while there's some asshole bringing in literal who Xitter drama or lolisho discourse that no one but themselves give a shit about on /g/ so I'd avoid that board altogether

 No.7294

I think I've said this before but we are doing whatever we can to prevent bots from posting on our site. About 90% of the CSEM bots that plague imageboard websites get blocked by our filters, but sadly the ones you mentioned slip through the cracks like cockroaches due to the way their posts are formatted - no body text and a heavily edited image. Fortunately they only post rarely and we catch them almost immediately.

Right now one of our staff members is working on an AI powered detection tool that will (hopefully) get rid of them completely.

I'm honestly so glad I never used VVN despite having a 2016 account, because holy fuck I would have started so many arguments back then. I was a nightmare to deal with until maybe 2023.
I can 100% confirm that the Reddit is abysmal. If you simply say you don't like a producer when the OP asks for an opinion, it doesn't matter how nice you are, at best they'll act shocked that you don't like Jamie Page or DECO and at worst they'll act like you uttered a slur or something.

Threw me for a loop seeing VSR here bahahaha

I’ll add on to this thread. Used to be a site great for find MMD models called mikudance.info. It lasted a few years but eventually the owner got tired through a fit and shut it down.

Learn MMD also had a very short lived page I wrote on for a bit dedicated to just MMD models as well. It was basically a good way to find model reviews. Not a lot of articles sadly.

Dead blog, can’t pull up the link atm but Lost MMD on tumblr which is pretty much an MMD lost media blog.

I've considered making an old school style Vocaloid news blog but I feel like we're at a point where social media has done irreparable damage to journalism, and that unfortunately includes fan journalism.

It's so easy to just refresh your feed and see a short, vague sentence posted by a news account accompanied by an image and a link to a full article that 90% of people will not even bother reading because they prefer reading sensationalist headlines and immediately jumping to conclusions. I'm mostly throwing shade at general pop culture news accounts like The New York Post and Pop Crave over here, not any specific Vocaloid accounts, but fan journalism has also fallen to these practices lately.

Then there's the issue that I have a life so I'd need editors to help out, and that no one reads blogs these days.

tl;dr: I've wanted to make a vocaloid news blog but i'd basically just be writing for myself

One alternative though would be to host a fanzine about recent happenings in the Vocaloid scene like new songs, new utau/sv/vocaloid/voisona voicebanks, etc. I know that despite the fact that we're in the 2020s and not the 2000s, fanzines still do very well, especially on places like Neocities where it isnt hard to gain a small niche audience.

As much as I haven’t been writing, having more people report on the news is so helpful! It gives everyone the opportunity to help look over each other’s work and cross-reference each other so we all can make the most accurate articles possible. So even if it’s just for yourself, do it anyways! It’s a huge plus to have more voca-reporters!

Adding on to this because I forgot to write more about it, I did have frequent readers on my blog. The biggest traffic was mostly on high profile news like Miku v6 or major engine upgrades.

39chan has more of an overlap with 4chan. You gotta remember that it was originally made as a refuge site for 4chan /jp/ users who were fed up with the drama and off topic bullshit there.

But 39chan didn't really take off with /jp/ users until last year because 2 years ago this site was a lot slower, disorganized and there were anons you could recognize by their typing style alone. After the /jp/ exodus most of the boards got merged with /leek/, you start seeing the "Vocaloid General" threads pop up on this board, and bit more gossip.

I think 39chan currently has by far the best culture out of all available community platforms. I've been listening to vocal synths for 7 years now, but never went and actually engaged with the community. I decided last summer that I would seek out a community to be more in touch with what's going on. I cycled through a bunch of options, and none of them came even close to having a community as mature and laid back as this one.
That is to say, 39chan probably has a pretty good retention rate for users compared to other options and is likely the best option for someone trying to get engaged with the community from scratch. That is unless you're really young and need the constant stimulation from Twitter or a Teto dicksword megaserver.

I have no idea if this classifies as a fansite but i really like Yamine Aku's website design. It doesn't seem to have been updated since 2009 so it's basically stuck in time.

I don't know if we have any old bloggers on this site but considering we have a bit of everything here, this question's for those of you who ran Vocaloid blogs in the 00's and 10's

How did you gain an audience back in the day? Word of mouth, Google, Affiliates?. I've been reading some old Blogspot blogs that are still around and regardless of how questionable some of the articles there were (some weren't even Vocaloid related but more personal) they always seemed to have a small, niche audience. That sounds impossible nowadays.

This is the perfect fansite honestly. Has a lot of useful information and stuff to keep you exploring. Back in the day there was a site called Kirby's Rainbow Resort (completely unrelated to Vocaloid ofc) and i would spend hours exploring it. That's the type of fansite i miss.

 No.18198

This site is not 100% vocaloid themed but it seems to be a place where OP posted her MMD animations. The banners are also very 2009.

You guys should check out the old Vocalobooru. The staff behind Booru Project have disabled registration on all of the boorus, and this specific one hasn't been updated since the early 2010's, leaving the site frozen but accessible with a lot of good art from that era still there. There's also a chance some art on this site might be unavailable at the original source and only preserved there.

Only big one I can think of is mikufan.

I remember finding all sorts of weird blogs and websites relating to vocaloid while reverse image searching old art. My favorite one that i found was this weird armenian/russian site that hasnt been updated in 15 years. It was a forum for fans of that region i think, last activity from the users was in 2016. Makes me sad thinking about how many forums and places like these online are just sort of abandoned and forgotten when they used to have an active userbase

 No.21219

Sometimes i like to explore old Vocaloid fansites (there are many abandoned ones) and honestly it just makes me happy to see how much effort went into making them. So many articles and downloadable stuff.

As for forums: I'm glad there are sites like Vocaverse, 39chan, Utaforum still alive. VocaDB also has a forum though most people use it for the actual database.

Came here to ask this exact thing. Is there a reason why Vocaloidism stopped being updated? I was never the type of person who cared about the people behind these fansites, so if shit went down I'm not aware

I'm working on something called the 39chan archive. Thought you guys would be interested since its gonna be an archive of 39chan related content (art, Q&A sessions, etc). It'll also have what i like to call a "Pseudo-wiki": it looks like MediaWiki, functions like MediaWiki, but runs my own original code and is a static website rather that something people can contribute to.

 No.21748

>>21747
I'm interested. You might want to call it the 39chan Encyclopedia instead if it's not an actual wiki or an archive of the board. You can keep the explanation on the front page, so that people can still find it if they search for 39chan wiki.

I renamed it to Leekipedia because it sounds funnier, but it is an archive and the wiki is just one section of the site.

I remember posting about this on another thread, or maybe a different board, but Vocaloidism went inactive because the main writer is more involved in the anikura scene these days and the other got into Vtubers. Mikufan was really shutdown because affiliate revenue doesn't pull down much anymore. There is no audience for niche blogs when the vast majority of your potential audience is young and has never known anything other than TikTok and X.

I should say this is also a Japanese phenomenon too, though also compounded by 2ch/5ch being irrelevant. Most of the old Vocaloid matome sites are defunct or gone now as well.
