Exact image matching to block duplicate uploads requires images served to be the exact same, otherwise the system only flags that the images
look similar, but aren’t the same file.
DeviantArt, and a good many other sites, fuck with images in ways that the “full” image file can be different for random reasons, mean it’s impossible to block certain duplicate uploads and everyone’s time is wasted.
And I’m not sure why me being an admin makes the fairly objective statement that DA is trash “odd”.
