Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Decreased video quality is an improvement over the nothing at all that one gets from failed optical media though.
I do have a ripper device - wanting to get into archiving rare media but Windows 11 in all of its glory has decided that it doesn’t trust me enough to let me choose to install third party drivers 🙄
The ideal is a mix - but also, as a certified broke bitch I’ll take a 49 tape with ghosting issues over a $3.09 shiny thing that isn’t even a good paperweight if it’s dead.
Try Linux then? Setup is a bit of work but i got it running for makemkv and Handbrake.
