     so context; once upon a time every single troon/crusty dickhead hipster wanted this dude's art as a status symbol because furries need art from a specific artist to be in the "in" group" and to signal.
     https://nitter.poast.org/puppytube
     
     Now they all get art from this troon:
     https://nitter.poast.org/CyanSorcery
     
     I'll admit, it has a talent for making one of the least interesting and appealing video games possible that furries only talk about because said artist is in the "in" group. No people won't buy your game because you're an internet nobody, you have to make it appeal to those who aren't in the "in" group".

     Bonus: It can't leave Twitter LMAO, and it uses a instance run by a schizo who hardcoded in a Pleroma block.

     this is why they're afraid of AI.
     
     But I also just noticed that he lifted his online name from that one song about a hooker and I can't stop laughing 😂

     @PhenomX6 I'm pretty sure I've seen a bunch of furry Stable Diffusion models in list. Even NovelAI can generate some well-known kemono characters, I won't be surprised if this generation of AI was at least partially kickstarted by furfags.

     There's two factions in the fandom with this; vocal furry artists whose Twitter output consists of the timeline and consumers who are too broke/worried about family finding out to spend money on art.
     
     No really. Aside from artists getting pickier about who they will let commission them, and the decent artists having IRL costs go up, taking online breaks, or getting overcrowded by Tumblrshit artists, there are also cases in which artists have to deal with everything from the commissioner using a family member's paypal to get art (and then the art, usually NSFW, going right to mom's e-mail) to that archetypal suburban mom I've talked about who treats her kid like a dog. She'll find out that Jimmy was spending money on things online without her permission again and instead of forcing him to pay up and take responsibility, she'll charge it back and make the problem go away and maybe ground him for a week. Now the artist just lost that money on Paypal from a chargeback and he didn't budget that.
     
     Don't get me started on politics and how some artists were making a great big deal about virtue signaling about how they canceled commissions from "problematic" people while trying to harass them, or how mobs would harass artists who did art for anyone disliked enough (as a certain website admin said, essentially telling that crowd that if they harass an artist enough they can get their way every fucking time). Or how furries only gave a shit about underage people in their areas when a sex pest managed to spin him being caught for trying to groom minors online into "I WAS FRAMED BY HER SHE LIED ABOUT HER AGE DOOD" and everyone took it like retards.
     
     So there's dealing with gay drama from online artists who virtue signal instead of drawing, or there's using AI for possibly a ref sheet or two and then spending more money on art when the time comes. Gee, I wonder what choice is harder.

     My sides. Since it sounds oddly specific, I'd like to imagine this actually happened at least once.
     This could've also been a viable usecase for crypto, as I imagine there's quite a lot of people who would like to commission some wild shit without having their real name attached to it. No chargebacks in blockchain, either, so artists won't have to worry about that as well. But muh environment!

     @mint artists are the most conformist to peer pressure so of course only the fringe non furry artists who already embraced fedi would take it.

     @rodan @mint furries making art involves whining more than wings does during a stream.

     Art is supposed to be a fun hobby and when you finish something you get to feel proud and satisfied. You don't get that from typing a description and letting the computer shit something out for you. You're not actually making anything. You're just being cucked by the computer.
