I like to bring up some history of what happen
in Furaffinity and the Foxler situation years ago.
Because it was a similar situation with what going on here and the arguments around Aryanne. However, their new tactic was to use the BLM movement and a article hit piece to accelerate this division within this community and pick a side. Even with all of our concerns about the long term effect of arbitrary censorship. They still cave and show their weakest to the twitter mod. That would’ve find something else to get outrage about, if they just told them to fuck off. I’m not seeing the future of this platform lasting longer, if all it takes was outrage mod on Twitter. To dictate what should and shouldn’t be on a platform and not the people who are running it.
So what I’m expecting to see in the future of Derpibooru, from other platform experience I was in before the takeover:
- More “problematic” tags and content being banned for not being “PC” enough
- Artists being banned here, including being banned from conventions. For having a unpopular opinion or something they posted 3-6 years ago
- And lots of cancel culture and pedo scandals.
Welcome to a new era..
