Subscribed! I agree entirely with your motivations, online programming culture is an awful cesspit.

I unironically (by which I mean 'genuinely' in an internet acceptable fashion) wish book stores and libraries had more manga. I'd really like to read some classic manga something fierce.

There is zero rehashing of personality clashes between dead men in my life.

Doesn't explain why you ain't reading Djuna Barnes right this second

I am actually not sure if they are such moneybags, it's just that they i) actually do commission artists since they have a need (you can't free ride your way into having your fursona illustrated) ii) buying or making a decent fursuit needs resources, money, skills and/or equipment.

It's like how gaming is by now super widespread, but PC Master Race is elitist as fuck as to build a high class gaming computer you need not only expensive computer, but also peripherals, where as someone with less funds buys a console to reuse their TV or games on mobile or web or plays retro games and so on. But PC gaming isn't really a moneybags affair either.

The last crop of SU was pretty excellent btw, so if you haven't up caught yet, make it a priority. I'm very into how the latest arc has combined townies and gems and seeing reborn Lars is a true joy.

Also I can't create forums yet, so here it goes!

It's definitely not a thing that lays on one person's shoulders! It's good to have niches and different circles and interests.

I don't know what this tells about me, but my first thought was blocking irl friends for a week or so and reblogging, removing the post and then unblocking people...

Ok I'm somewhat late, but I could think of a two very broad categories:

  • Arts and entertainment: killallgames, anime4unme, post_music, itookthisphoto, imadethis, just_drawe, Yuri_hut. This could also be named Arts and media.
  • General: general, just_post, ask.

I think two categories suffice for now honestly, we only have 17 forums and these two categories would leave 7 without one, namely:

  • meta
  • me_irl
  • vote_satan
  • just_eate
  • Selfcare
  • spookyskeletongifs
  • technology

I think these are very heterogenous and it's not worth it to either broaden the two categories or make new categories with just one or two forums just to create some order. (Official admin run forums like meta could warrant their own category, but that's another reason.)

Another option would be that Arts and entertainment would be split into two, namely

  • Crafts and creative pursuits: itookthisphoto, imadethis, just_drawe and (maybe) just_eate. (I'm not entirely sold on the name.)
  • Arts and entertainment: killallgames, anime4unme, post_music, Yuri_hut.

That would leave three categories.

OK so I might request /r/cartoons from holly, but would a more general TV one be better? Just soliciting for opinions here.

EDIT: OK so I'll just have to wait instead of requesting anything el-em-ay-oh.

One thing I miss from Reddit is flair, just for things like this. I could blast my old nick into the aether for two months and by then everyone's gotten used to this account being me.
