We've gotten over 100 sign-ups since launch, which is a massively good start, especially considering that everyone in the lemmyverse can subscribe to our communities and participate.

Now we need to keep the ball rolling to gain more and more momentum.

Here's some ideas:

  1. Go over to !chat@yiffit.net or https://yiffit.net/c/furry@pawb.social and introduce yourself. Your yiffit account gives you access to countless local and remote communities.
  2. Post your favorite artwork, SFW or NSFW (remember to give attribution)
  3. Create a new thread about your favorite food, hobbies or projects! Sharing art is only half what this instance has to offer.
  4. Create your own "subyiffit" / community and moderate it as you see fit. Carve out your own space.
  5. Help us come up with a name for our yeen mascot.
  6. Post here from any Mastodon account by simply mentioning it's name. For example @furry@pawb.social or @chat@yiffit.net
  7. Tell your friends!

Corporations like reddit are counting on our inaction to keep control, but we have a golden opportunity to create queer, authentic furry platforms, run by furries, for furries.

Let's go!

Who are some celebrities, youtubers, or other notable people who you think or know are probably furries even if they don't explicitly acknowledge it.

I'll propose John Oliver, I would say Mr. Regular too, but he has publicly acknowledged it for a while now.

The fedivrse is not as connected as I once thought.

Mastodon and lemmy only sort of talk to each other. This is a test post of sorts @chat Also I cloned myself.

I know some interactions are possible, but do private messages work?

Pawb.social is well on it's way to making an icon in the bottom left, anybody got some ideas for what we could do? Maybe a pixel version of our yeen, or something more suggestive?

Does anyone have ideas? Does anyone actually want to? I do what I can, but it feels like there is only ~10 people here and shouting into the void isn't that enjoyable. pawb.social is a little better, but I don't know how much their new members know about us, and I don't know how much those here know about their newer communities. For remote visitors, here is a list of all local yiffit communities including all the NSFW ones

Whether your active on other instances, a long time lurker, a former active user..., Are you still around?

9
 
 

Do you think any groups won out on their color selection, any groups left behind? Do you like your flag(s)?

10
 
 

With as small as the community is here, do you notice when users who do post stop posting?

A few months ago I created Pokeyiff but for reasons beyond my power I had to abandon it and close it to prevent any situation that could occur in my absence, but I'm back and I would like to create Pokeyiff again or go back to the original Pokeyiff (yes, it seems to me that the instance admin can do that, and yes, I already asked him), but unless someone can help me to manage it, I sincerely prefer not to go ahead with my plan to open the community again.

If you are interested in helping me to manage the community I would be very grateful, so we can help Yiffit together :3

So this is something I've been thinking about a bit recently, and I'd be interested in hearing people's thoughts on the matter.

Lets suppose you meet someone, and chat socially with them. Maybe a work colleague, maybe a friend met through a friend. You aren't that close with them, but you get the vibe that they aren't a bigot or judgemental at the very least. If the conversation turned to furry stuff, would you tell them that you like furry art?

Do you keep a different set of non-furry socials for your irl friends and family? What about having a furry profile pic on your work slack? Or your Github? Do you try hard to make sure that nobody will be able to find your secret furry double life if they know you IRL?

I guess, in essence, I'm wondering if you draw a hard line between your "sfw furry life" and your "IRL life".

If I have a character and want something with them, I think I know what to do, I have lots of artists I watch that do just that. But what if I want logos and icons? Basically I want a logo, icon, and mascot for the site I'm making, but don't know where to start in finding an artist to commission for them.

Its two weeks (and 1 day) until yiffit's cake day (or at least post 1 and Wander's cake day) Thank you @Wander@yiffit.net For hosting and running yiffit this past year. 🥂

How are you? (yiffit.net)

How are you doing? Anything you want to brag about? Rant about? Just shout into the void?

The first post in question. I don't know if I'll finish it, but I have started to write it. I even went so far as to get a domain. It wasn't my first choice, but its not bad. So any ideas, features, etc.. are welcome, as is anybody that wants to help with it or advice for making it. I'm not quite ready to give out the name publicly yet, but if anybody is curious I'll message you.

and I will not be going. Its the time of year for the local convention. I've though about going a few times, but I probably wouldn't talk to anyone, or go to anything, so I don't see the point.

Hopefully the my icon here tells you my position.

Video game soundtracks and electronica can make some great background thinking music.
soundtrack to vvvvvv
portal (I might have bought this on a CD)

Once upon a time, there seemed like there were quite a few users who would post to yiffit and at least some amount of general activity. These days it seems like there are only a few posters. So what happened to everyone?

It often works, but sometimes fails in very quiet ways. https://pawb.social/post/8422352 and https://yiffit.net/post/8267386 are the same mealtime video post (Technology connections kettle), but very different comment counts. I usually see it as posts or communities that just stop showing up even though nothing changes. The other day I played with the stories community here from a remote community, but nothing showed up until I made a comment on a post that didn't show up initially.

yea federation can be weird sometimes.

Just one? One on many instance? Multiple on one instance? Biggest reasons?

The app I use for lemmy, Voyager, is dropping support for lemmy 0.18 in a few days due to authentication changes in 0.19.

Any news on upgrading yiffit?

I was about to change my profile picture and I got that error, I assumed it was an occasional problem because my PC has a lot of space available so I tried to upload an image and I couldn't either because of the same error code.

I tried to upload an image on another instance (to that same instance) and didn't get any errors so it's not my PC. I suppose it's possible that I could upload an image to a Yiffit community from another instance but I'm not sure if it will be reflected on Yiffit.

Is anyone else having this problem?

I don't mean to be annoying, but it's been some time since I submitted my registration request, and I still haven't received an update on it, so I don't know if it will ever be accepted.
