Updating Comments
Updating comments has been a long time goal of mine. There a are a lot of things that users couldn't do like reply to a specific user, add hearts and trashes to a specific message, etc.
I looked at a lot of systems but I'm hesitant to bring in third party solutions like disqus, and popular ones like commento look like a pain in the ass to manage. Other ones which support auto-sign in for commenting are also very expensive. I spent most of m...

Happy Halloween everyone!
Today I shipped a thicc update that addresses a lot of backend build up that occurred while adding features over the last, like, year.
Improved Stuff
- Improved search functionality (may need better adjustments, but it should understand priority now)
- Database cleanup and data cleanup for empty attributes
- API should not return 0.00 as a result of the above. It will instead return NULL,
- Upgraded core fra...

I added a note on the upcoming feature to today's AMA video! It's near the end but the gist of it is:
Custom lists! Tab order, waifu order, etc. Should be available in the upcoming weeks along with a batch of other improvements.
Thanks all!

As many of you know I am in California. There is a good chance that a significant amount of financial disturbances across all sectors could occur here in the coming weeks. I have no idea if or when this will affect MyWaifuList. I am extremely grateful to everyone here for contributing to support the websites operation.

Just about done updating tests to match the layout changes since I moved everything around. You'd be surprised how many front-end tests break with these UI updates.
So far I am pretty happy with the upgrade process on this. It took awhile because I had so much to clean out, but it seems to be alright. I want to spend another 6-8 hours passing visually over the pages on devices ranging from ipho...

Hey everyone!
Hopefully your waifus are being approved faster now since we've been rallying the team to really get through them.
As far as development, I am bringing in a rather large update to the user interface right now, and with it I will have more precision over various parts of the pages when switching between light\dark mode. Most pages will look similar, with layouts refined for some better experiences.
Some items are broken still or needing a little nudging, b...

Account Deletion
You'll be able to nuke your whole account. Waifus will be transferred to a MyWaifuList Bot user, posts will disappear, images will be taken over by WaifuBot, and your avatar & banner will be deleted from the system. So, that's nice.
Quality of Life Upgrades
Right now the backend actually keeps denied waifus forever. This will be two weeks after the next update.

Also, development has finished on the watchlist feature - just need to write some more tests and shit. Which I guess means that it's not finished. You know what I mean.

Finished the permission update, including all relevant tests to create a new Power User, Moderator, and other roles to help us with the site cleanup. Included in this is historical revisions to prevent potential....issues if someone loses their shit on the site. I was going to deploy it this afternoon, but I went to go see Godzilla: king of monsters.
It sucked so much ass I made a video about it, which you can see above. The permissions will be deployed this upcoming week. Thanks for yo...

Hey Everyone!
Our next update is going to have some seriously big changes for the sake of the website. We have had a ton of trolls recently, and a lot of people uploading inappropriate content (not even standard inappropriate, we're talking like frame by frame spongebob episodes of Sandy Cheeks in a bikini). Additionally, it has been a long struggle of ours to make sure data is clean and consistent.
To address this, we're going to require verification for all new submissions...

Hello Patrons!
I'm rolling out official username claiming today, so head to your account management screen and claim your official, permanent username! The URL's will be decorated and re-done to be located at:

Hello Waifu Lovers!
Today I shipped an update that allows you to add markdown for comments - including images! Can I talk about how complicated that was? Taking the regular markdown parser and making a WaifuParser out of it, then sanitizing the output HTML for that triple-layer security was rough!
There are also some hidden quality of life features included, such as removing images after uploading (in case you mess up), a relocated toggle for light\dark theme, new icons from...

The API has officially landed on production and is undergoing some closed testing.
If you are a Patreon supporter, please message one of the website moderators or myself if you would like to get early access to the API. The API once it's finalized and any bugs ironed out will be open for supporters for some time before launching to the public.
You can demo a quick discord bot by asking Waifu-chan on our discord server (in the #bot_stuff channel):
