I just made an account in bluesky. And was greeted by lots of anime tits. Nothing against people's preferences, but is this how businesses nowadays greet new customers? I mean, they are trying to build a twitter alternative, aren't they?

Yeah, there's not much content, but I've found a lot of fans hanging around here, much more so than say, Reddit or other mainstream sites. Kinda like how Linux users are over-represented here. There's a lot of overlap with furries and techies. I can spot a furry avatar/username from a mile away.

And that, to me, is fine. People can be furries or like furries. I'm OK with that.

On Bluesky, however, there is/was a ton of furry content being posted, and not just drawings or simple photos. I sadly know what a furry, wolf penis looks like by just scrolling through the app. So the moderation lists are great.

That's unfortunate and uncalled for on a public forum where people didn't ask to see it right away. Sorry you had to see that.

[–] garretble@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

I appreciate that.

I mean, I'm not offended or anything. But I just don't have any NEED to see that stuff when I'm just checking to see what people are talking about.

That you know of. Your granddad could be a furry—you’ve just never asked the right questions.
