If I remember correctly that sub had about 100K users. A few days ago I criticized major yiff subreddits for not even shutting down the 48h of the initial protest. And now we have the /r/furry subreddit blacked out for over a week.

Does anyone know who their admins / mods are? We should invite them over to here or pawb.social.

    They would be more than free to run their own furry community. There’s no reason we would have to merge into one single furry community. We can have /c/furry and /c/furries or whatever. But they’re more than welcome to set up their own more sanitized community.

      That’s not what I was meaning. I guess I wasn’t exactly clear and let some misgivings and my own feelings confuse the matter about r/furry… So I apologize about that. m( _ _ )m

      I should have been more specific, if they want to migrate to Lemmy and keep their new community on Lemmy more accessible to younger furs below the age of 18, they will probably want to have it on a more family friendly instance like pawb.social.

      And well… Look at our instance name? It doesn’t really fit that family friendly vibe, and we are not an instance for furs under the age of 18. so we probably wouldn’t be the best fit for them.

      Now considering everything, nothing stops them from creating their accounts and main community on pawb.social then creating a more adult oriented version of that sfw community here. Here it doesn’t have to be super sanitized because everyone should be over the age of 18 on this instance, or visiting this instance from other instances. So their would be more leeway for more adult subject matters still SFW but not appropriate for younger furs to hear about.

      But that is also hypothetical. And sorry if I am on a bit of a tangent… ADHD and all that. Makes me want to type up paragraphs when I should be trying for short, sweet, and to the point. Again, sorry. m( _ _ )m

        Oh, You’re 100% right. We would not accept minors. Good catch. No worries, I also tend to be very verbose.
