FA slowly becoming more corporate. Alas I don't return to IB except on two specific days to post some very special art for someone I miss.

Welcome back, but what happened now?
I'm scared. 😭

Basically, Babyfurs and diaper fetishes are next on FA's target list. Or, well, the report trolls' target list, and FA kowtows to them.

Well, it's not my "area of ​​work" but it still worries me because one day it could reach us. 😶

I'm just glad to know from you after what happened.

Be well Ahastar.

Sometimes I think wouldn't E621 be a more inclusive place and respect the diversity of the kins in the community more?

Anyway, let FA keep shouting "get out of my fandom!" just like a "normal" people

" ... the same Meldemuschis will eventually have to come after other hardcore fetishes like gore and crushing to continue kidding themselves on being relevant ..."

Gore and crushing used to be perfectly safe for one specific reason. Dragoneer was into macro stomping. Wellp...

Any plans for an Itaku and Bluesky page?

Nah, FA and Inkbunny will do for pages for me, I think. And I am not on social media at all anymore for over a year now, and do not plan to change that again ;D

Given FA's recent "apology," can you appeal the strike?

Ah, I am afraid I am too busy being an actual artist instead of an outrange one, so unfortunately I lack the time to appeal to their circle of gaslighting for forgiveness I never needed. They are, however, welcome to correct their mistakes of their own, by their own, on their own. I am sure they can do that without any form of communication from me. After all, when I did send a note to them during their suspension period to try to talk things over, they didn't consider it necessary to send me as much as an automated note in reply.

I will keep posting here on FA - after checking the ID of every pixel I animate to see if the RGB values are all over 18, of course. And not wearing any diapers now, too, apparently. Anyone who wants to see my entire hassle-free gallery or simply can't be bothered with whatever chucklefuck bullshit FA thinks it is doing, pelase go here: https://inkbunny.net/Ahastar

Sadly, this is a development I had feared would also spread to FA. I've been following your suspension Journals a little bit. I'm not super up to date what's going on but, from what I can tell, it's basically like the DA issue some time ago.
DA also had a "Censorship Cleansing" for a bit. By blindly removing and banning creations solely based on singular reports and a singular admin dropping by, just glancing over the image for like 5 seconds before pressing the remove button. Then when asked why they removed it, they just "ctrl + c and ctrl + v" the entire "terms and service" page. And when asked to specify exactly where in the tm the image is problematic, they just give a flimsy or outright dishonest answer, basically saying: "You know what? We ( I ) don't care." That's why I came to FA a while back with my stuff.
It has gotten a bit better tho on DA, which is nice. But it's sad to see the trend continues on sites that should be very "fetish friendly".

I reckon if all else fails, Diablo and I would just build up Boltslair.com to be a full-flexed interaction website for our content. I think we would have enough pull and enough of a fanbase to maybe manage that.

Hopefully the "fires won't be rising" timelessly. Maybe it will just "end" at one point like on DA.
But yea, you do have the momentum to move. It's just annoying since ones momentum usually slows down when doing so.
