Being older and part of the older fanbase of anime I find them cancerous. The concept is repulsive to me.
There was always a set of unwritten rules in the communities. Like overall no one cared if you were into things like lucky star or dbz, even if they were extreme opposites. Lucky start catering to lolicons and dbz to tough guys because everyone was a outcast and communities were too small to care about trivial things like that. Another was 3DPD (3D Pig Disgusting) as real women were disgusting and to be ridiculed compared to anime perfection, simping as you call it now being forbidden. No real names type of communications, it was all text or voice chat (rarely) because everyone was socially retarded and an outcast. Being a "Namefag" or "tripcode faggot" was looked down upon used only by the attention whores. Community based distribution and translation, via torrents or ddl via irc, hardly any money was traded just donations for translators or to keep sites running.
For me its repulsive because it violates 2 notions that women are repulsive and don't belong in the mostly male outcast scene and also because there is a lot of commercialization behind the faces. Hololive and vshojo being publically traded companies with responsibility to shareholders. Back then it would unimagineable if someone make a anime figure of a ewhore like boxy and it sold commerically. Yet vtubers being wearing the cloak of anime are now coming out with partnerships with companies, and merchandise.
