Description
General community for everything furry-related (discussions, texts, art, your own work, …)!
No matter if you have one or multiple fursonas (animal-based or not) or are just here to enjoy the artworks, all are welcome and respected here.
Rules
- Don’t be an asshole. While disagreements are normal in a discussions, personal attacks and harassment are going to be removed.
- Mark NSFW posts accordingly. Porn and nudity must not be posted here (we have dedicated communities for this kind of content).
- When posting artwork, cite the source and name the author. If possible with links to their socials. If the original source is unknown, at least link to the source where you got the image from.
- AI content is not welcome.
- You can still post discussions about it if the topic is something you consider important for the community.
- If you think something is AI, point it out (comment + report); but don't accuse someone of slopposting without a valid reason.
- Instance-rules of pawb.social apply.
- Don’t bring us in legal trouble.

It is pathetic to block Tor. Those who do either have some backwards idea of internet security or are in favor of state sponsored censorship and surveillance.
FA server settings might just be set super-paranoid due to recent uptick in DDOSs and AI scraping.
"Super-paranoid" as in "blocks basic encryption services like NordVPN and Cloudflare WARP because can't tell diff between actual DDOS and many people using same IP cuz that's kinda what a VPN is"
Understandable paranoia, I suppose, but not acceptable. And incredibly ironic for their serverside Cloudflare config to... block another basic Cloudflare service???
I agree, it isn't acceptable. I feel like that's part of the reason so many people dislike cloudflare, beyond them being a company who has a monopoly on communication. They kind of enable regressive practices like this.
Fur affinity security can basically be summed up as a series of knee jerk reactions to endless harassment, death threats, and attacks over the course of two decades.
The site is basically the punching bag for every upset twat who thinks furries are the devil.
