This country could be so much better. Fingers crossed that social services and housing are improved like that by the time I retire.

Not quite relevant to the article, but I just noticed the 2S is being put at the front of the acronym! I quite like it.
I'm hoping that the ability to migrate accounts across instances will become a thing in the future, for situations like that. It would help reduce the pressure to stay in one place because you've put so much time into it, which is one of the most unhealthy traits of social media imo.
It's horrifying that my country is full of so many of these bigots who firmly deny the truth that Canada genocided the indigenous populations. And RECENTLY.
As a fellow artist, I'd love to say otherwise, but sometimes we have to admit that not all platforms are built for growing your art business. Sure, you can probably get away with plugging links to your patreon/etsy every time you share your work, but you're not going to get very much revenue from it. You'll be squeezing a square block into a triangular hole.
It's not that artists aren't welcome, it's just that the threadiverse (and reddit by extension) wasn't designed for the purposes you're describing, so you're not going to find the success you're looking for. There's nothing wrong with finding another platform that suits your needs better.
Great art! I love G'raha. Though, isn't this the wrong magazine to be posting him to?
I've been thinking about making my own neocities website to blog and share my creative works.
I'm sorry that you have such dark thoughts and negative feelings because of this :( there's a very loud, very vocal minority of women who believe men are inherently evil (and there's a large overlap with terfism too). But that's just the thing, they're a minority. Obviously much of what they say is based on truth- that's how they persuade others to think like them- but it's not worth listening to them because their intentions aren't in the right place. You're absolutely right that communities like that are bad for one's mental health, too!
Wishing you well, stranger.
I'm a bird too! Furry as furry can be!
Isn't the whole point of the fediverse to have different instances with different rules and cultures, and them all having the freedom to associate with (or to not associate with) whichever other instances they choose? Boohoo, an instance is using their freedoms in a way you aren't! Don't get so upset over what Beehaw chooses to do. People who agree with Beehaw will hang out there more and people who don't will move elsewhere. This is the natural way of things, isn't it?
I'm quite the opposite of a moneybags, I just like to dream. :(
