Interesting experiment!

I tried opening this post on a bunch of instances and here is what I found.

• Piefed instances load the image for the counter and increment it on each page refresh.
  • My dev instance, piefed.social
• Lemmy instances have different behavior depending on whether they enable the pict-rs image proxy or not
  • instaces that don't use the proxy load and increment the counter as expected: ani.social, lemmy.world, db0
  • instances that use the proxy don't load the image and refreshes on the page don't increment the counter: lemmy.zip
• mbin instances don't seem to display any post content? Unless I am missing something...idk, I haven't ever really used mbin
  • fedia.io

Interesting that Aura is on the cover art along with Frieren. I guess she would be the closest thing to an antagonist from the first season of the anime. I do find it interesting how popular Aura has become after the anime aired. It's not like Aura wasn't liked before, but I think episodes 9 and 10 of the anime took that whole sequence to a new level and cemented Aura (and her end) into a ton of people's minds.
