It has an OSU! logo so you know it's the real deal

generally what makes insects creepy is long thin legs and scary mandibles. those that don't have these features can be really cute. bonus points if they're fluffy.
then again creepy can be cool depending on presentation

That's true in most cases, but i've had a lot more success posting stuff to my furry-specific Mastodon instance than posting hte same thing to generic Twitter and Bluesky. So there's something to the ability to have a specific audience.
But i genuinely have an issue when i go to upvote or reply and it tells me that i'm not logged in, and that's when i find out that i've accidentally left my instance and am not logged in anymore. That kind of thing shouldn't happen at all, it shouldn't be this easy to accidentally land in a different instance.

One Lemmy and one Mastodon. I really like the fediverse promise of interoperability between instances, i hold it up to this promise, and i get annoyed when it fails.

According to the article, it's done for market research, i.e. finding out who buys what, which is a thing businesses like to know. But also apparently it allows the machine to generate "AI-powered product recommendations", which i guess means it tailors reccomendations to each user? Which it can do because it has a touch screen, and the touch screen itself already strikes me as full of shit.
That's what the article says this machine in particular does; but yes, it could totally change the price on you depending on what you look like, and all other kinds of deeply shady things. You can count on a private company to do that kind of thing and then use their favorite argument: it's technically legal.

There were going to be communities dedicated to talking animals on the internet, that much is certain. Just about everything else was shaped by early founders. Aside from the furry fandom's very existence which may be inevitable, every part of its shape and characteristics were laid by people like Sysable.

Bookmark them all. And then you sort by "most recent visit" so you see the artists you haven't checked out in a while

None of my family members know what a furry is and i'm keeping it that way.

What's funny is that i ran this image through Nightshade to protect it against AI, whereas i posted to FA and E926 before AI was as big so that older version is clean. Apparently the bot doesn't get confused between the two versions which is great.

wait how?? does the bot find the furaffinity link and do a reverse image search? that's so cool and honestly overbuilt lol

Yeah, i looked really hard and my city of 300k has maybe three furries in it. The neighboring city of half the size has a small convention.
Incroyable carnet d'adresses!

You don't understand, this batter was a lot saltier than the batter you're thinking of
{"data":{"msg":"Too many frames","files":null},"state":"success"} I tried uplading short clips at 30 and 25fps. The image above uploaded just fine so i don't know what to make of it. Thank you for everything you do!

Honestly, not delivering on the promise of decentralization is what makes Bluesky functional. With Mastodon i'm constantly having federation problems.
IMO Mastodon is more of a long play, in the sense that it will be great five years from now whereas corporate social media like Threads and Bluesky will enshittify. But as of right now, Mastodon is not super usable. I saw a lot of people move to it during the Musk era of Twitter but very few of them are staying, in fact Lemmy isn't really retaining the users it gained from Reddit either

Wow people are assholes, Bluesky is a nice place to be right now. It's still corporate social media so odds are it'll turn bad in the coming years, but right now it's a nice place with lots of furries.
Though tbh i think most people who wanted an invite code already have them, even i got a code that's how you know they're reaching the bottom of the barrel
It's about a suicidal deer who lets a tiger eat him. This was hard, took very long, and i'm not proud of the result; but it exists and is finished, and that alone makes it better than a perfect work that doesn't exist. The image wouldn't upload, i guess click the link? Sorry about that
This is the worst batch of french toast i've ever made.
My account is on pawb.social and i'm trying to comment on [the latest discussion thread](https://pawb.social/post/1606547?scrollToComments=true) on yiffit.net, but as the gif shows, the comment box doesn't react to clicks. Other things seem to work fine. Perplexingly, every other thread that i can find on yiffit.net lets me comment normally, it's just this one thread where the box doesn't react. That would imply that this thread in particular has a comments limit, but i can't see any indication of that. Apologies if i'm being the big dumb, it's true that most computer issues are between the keyboard and the chair I will log off for today and try again tomorrow, i have a whole rant ready in my mind god dammit
