Ever since their partnership with IMVU caved in, this site has been on a downward spiral ever since 2016. Say what you will about the rampant degeneracy of the users of this site - there are plenty of reasons to avoid using this site if you are part of the furry subculture, yet you are forced to do so because this is the one which everyone uses.
The site's infrastructure is permanently locked to using a long since obsolete build of the backend used by DeviantArt circa 2005. This is because the staff never paid the web developer for any of his work and kept fobbing it off, saying IMVU would be covering their fees (which they weren't). After having enough of their backpedalling and getting ghosted for so long, he simply hardlocked the entire site's root access behind a password, then left without telling them what it is. This is why they can't do much else with this site other than edit a.css file every now and again to give it the illusion of actual work being done on the site. Naturally, this leads to certain complications regarding site stability, mainly that it's frequently attacked and taken down by trolls. The most recent attack having took place only a few weeks after the site's founder Dragoneer passed away during the end of August 2024.
The site's moderation and admin team are also chronic virtue signallers and frequently align themselves with the most radically left-wing positions possible. Any dissenting opinion would result in endless harassment and moderation will simply turn a blind eye to it. There are countless examples of pedophile/zoophile content which is morally wrong, except the moderation team also comprises of pedophiles and zoophiles so they conveniently ignore it. They will make rules about involving real world politics in art, yet it is clear with the art that involve things like BLM or pride/progress flags that only a few will be tolerated. They will make arbitrary rules regarding Pokémon, AI or whatever, yet they're very selective of how these rules should be enforced, if at all. It all depends where you land politically, and whether you are stupid enough to give them money for literally no reason.
I'm not sure if I can convince furries to stay away from this site, because let's face it - they could do a lot better for themselves than a deprecated image gallery from two decades ago. If I can though, I would like to say e621.net is way better to use, it has good enough blacklist features to filter out the stuff you won't like, and the moderation team actually does their job properly.
