Hello everyone!

First of all apologies for not having followed through with some ideas that I’ve had recently. I’ve found myself with less time than usual and been away for a while as well.

In the meantime I wanted to ask you what topics that are furry or furry related would you see yourselves discussing or debating?

I know that one of the rules of Yiffit is to avoid drama, but if we find certain debate/discussion topics and create the necessary environment to discuss them in a healthy way this might be something we could do.

In my case for example, a topic that always pops up on twitter is the debate around feral nsfw content. I won’t get into details since this is not the post to do so, but I’m leaving it here as a potential topic for future more organized debates and discussions.

Please feel free to share or mention the topics that are furry or furry adjacent about which you have strong feelings and which you see yourself discussing in we found a proper way to do so. Feel also free to agree with other people in the comments as in “yes, I’d like to see this topic discussed as well”.

The goal is to find topics we would love to discuss without necessarily opening pandora’s box in this thread itself.

Thank you <3 I hope I don’t come off as too cautious. I’m just unsure about what topics will be suggested and want to preempt a major flame war in the comments :P

Note:

topics don’t need to be controversial at all. You can propose talking about everyone’s favorite fursuit artists. The cautious approach I took here is just in case something controversial comes up.

    Not sure if this is quite applicable as a conversation topic but I’m really confused as to why furries have seemed to stay on reddit. Furries are normally first in line for this sort of activism, especially when it involves cool technology. It feels like furries have stayed behind more than other groups, on average?

        Yeah that’s another thing that surprised me - I’m not really into the Mastodon style of posting, but to my knowledge there are a lot of furries on Mastodon. Did they all decide not to try Lemmy as well? I’m under the impression that it’s a lot easier to switch from Reddit to Lemmy than from Twitter to Mastodon, due to the network effect.

            just an side comment here

            You can also on Mastodon follow topics by following Hastags (like i do)

            Would be extremely helpful if you would also use them to findyour content
