I just started using this myself, seems pretty great so far!
Clearly doesn’t stop all AI crawlers, but a significantly large chunk of them.

…Why? It’s just telling companies they can get support + white-labeling for a fee, and asking you keep their silly little character in a tongue-and-cheek manner.
Just like they say, you can modify the code and remove for free if you really want, they’re not forbidding you from doing so or anything
True, but I think you are discounting the risk that the actual god Anubis will take displeasure at such an act, potentially dooming one’s real life soul.
Yeah, it seems entirely optional. It’s not like manually removing the Anubis character will revoke your access to the code. However, I still do find it a bit weird that they’re asking for that.
I just can’t imagine most companies implementing Anubis and keeping the character or paying for the service, given that it’s open source. It’s just unprofessional for the first impression of a company’s website being the Anubis devs’ manga OC…
It is very different from the usual flat corporate style yes, but this is just their branding. Their blog is full of anime characters like that.
And it’s not like you’re looking at a literal ad for their company or with their name on it. In that sense it is subtle, though a bit unusual.
