a bunch of my friends have moved to itaku after the debacle surrounding fa's recent verdicts, and after trying it I can safely say it's a pretty cool site with a lot of the features fa users have been begging for for years. I would definitely recommend at least checking it out if you haven't already, and friend me while you're there: https://itaku.ee/profile/glassoddity

this isn't really a "I'm leaving furaffinity!" message tho. I'm a small-time artist who hasn't really made anything in a long while, so even if my content/future work would be considered in violation of the rules (which tbh, that's not super clear to me!) I don't care about either worrying about that or running away until staff kicks me off themselves (which I highly doubt they'll actually do, for me at least). I'm just going to post by my own interpretation of the rules and if that's a problem in staff's eyes then, and only then, will I take my business elsewhere. after all, there's plenty of sites that would still accept the vast majority of the kind of tame-ass stuff I make lol

this is also a good time to mention that I've updated a few other contacts, including my new tumblr, so if you ever do plan to skedaddle please find me wherever you decide to go next!
