So, Carnivore Cafe, huh? You might be wondering how I came up with that name. If it sounds kinda similar to that infamous BBforums site The Cannibal Cafe (you know, the one linked to that wild Armin Meiwes case), you’re not wrong. It got me thinking—what if there was a maid cafe where the maids either got eaten or did the eating? Fun, right?
I started checking available domains, and unsurprisingly, “cannibalcafe” was a no-go. Same with “carnivorecafe.” But then I stumbled upon “carnivore cafe” without the extra “the,” and I thought, why not? It even has this cheeky vibe like “Can I vore?” Perfect. Once I locked it in, I went all in on the site.
As someone with a background in UX/UI design, it’s been a blast working on this—especially since I don’t have to follow those rigid corporate rules. No more generic corporate Memphis style for me, thank you very much! It’s pure creative chaos, and I’m loving it.
Let’s be real—social media platforms are a mess these days. Algorithms change constantly, and jumping ship to the next trendy platform feels like starting from scratch every time. (Looking at you, X-to-Bluesky exodus!) Having a website feels like claiming your own little permanent corner of the internet. Sure, it doesn’t bring the same level of engagement as social media, but I’m okay with having a smaller, more dedicated audience. Plus, social media feels like screaming into the void half the time—posts get buried under bots, reshares, and randomness.
The plan is to build something more lasting and personal. I want the site to grow with input from the community. Members can suggest ideas through the Discord channel, and while I can’t turn every suggestion into a comic or piece of content, I’ll archive them for future inspiration. If someone submits a short story, it’ll be posted with full credit. It’s all about collaboration and creativity.
For now, I’m keeping it simple—focusing on comics and art. But who knows? Down the line, if the resources are there, I’d love to expand into gaming or animation. I’m not trying to bite off more than I can chew (pun intended), but the potential for growth is exciting. Let’s see where it goes!
