@puppygirlhornypost2 very ironic username for this discussion lol
but yeah I guess there are people out there! it just seems that I tend to run into the very openly kinky on main ones nine times out of ten and it's very aggravating to me. bluh

if anyone accuses me of being sex negative or thinks that people should not post anything nsfw I'm going to spray a bottle full of soapy water directly into your eyes btw

@mmiasma I'm aroace so it's easy for me to slip under the radar tbh. worried about all the trans folks out here though
eblu @eblu@wetdry.world
ok is there room for people who don't really want to engage with nsfw in the furry community. I just want to enjoy people's scrunklies without being caught off guard by someone's fetish or whatever

@mmiasma hey look. the politicians suck out here but at least these states are undesirable enough for the cost of living to be manageable 👍

@mmiasma well hey I can look at the bright side, at least the state I live in is tied for the tenth worst

I sentence you to having your post about being frustrated with a Microsoft product get popular on mastodon.social
eblu @eblu@wetdry.world
ok look I'm happy that 11ty was able to secure a lot of funding and development of the free non-CMS side will continue for the foreseeable future but again I'm not really jazzed about the name change to "build awesome." it just feels like a downgrade

@ozeng @760ceb3b9c0ba4872cadf3ce35a7a4 there are lots of people on here who take how you use your computer as a test of morality or read every post literally and it drove a lot of potential users away. I think this is the most important thing that we should move past on a community level

@ozeng @760ceb3b9c0ba4872cadf3ce35a7a4 I definitely think that it's unsustainable to chase growth but there definitely needs to be more than just 45 year old white dudes that work in IT on here (obviously I'm exaggerating here but that's the biggest demographic). in order to do that then you have to make it easier for new people to both join and understand how the fediverse works, welcome them, and address the issues that a lot of people face (like the "my instance's admin got mad at the admin of the instance that my friend is on and now I can't talk to them" dilemma).
I think communities tend to naturally find each other on larger platforms despite having millions of users, but normalizing tags (not excessively!) like tumblr does would massively help too

pretty sure a lot of the things that I've said have been just me being frustrated over feeling like people had an expectations of me that made me uncomfortable and that I'm also a people pleaser so I felt like I Had To. I think I'm slowly mellowing out now
that being said that specific kind of furry TF still makes me uncomfortable and I'm not going to follow people that put it on my feed un-CWed or send it to me without asking. it's happened way too many times
Or: recounting the tiring saga of getting my car's battery replaced.
