because it does at least seem like current management gives some level of a shit about trying to fix the absolute goddamn disaster that played out for over a year with the 2.7 policy shit. also yknow, tag blacklisting wow! finally implementing some completely necessary features every other site has had for eons!

still very much have a chip on my shoulder about how many people were fucked over for no reason and how random chunks of this place's archive of furry art history were unceremoniously destroyed. a lot of those losses will never come back. they burned every scrap of good will i had left for this place and it's gonna take a lot to earn that trust back

but having redundancy is still a good thing so tell you what. if FA reaches the point where they don't need the panhandling link permanently at the top of the page, and by then they haven't had another staff meltdown or absurd ban/deletion wave or any other catastrophe like that, i'll consider the site stable enough to maybe think about posting here again

in the meantime though, reminder that my galleries now are on itaku and weasyl, relevant links to that and active socials are at https://linktr.ee/miradrgn
