>Why does this board exist?
There used to be a slow but healthy /kemono/ board on old 8chan, which died when that website imploded in 2019. In 2020, this board was created as an unlisted bunker in the event that /animu/'s bunker, prolikewoah, suffered a similar fate. Prolikewoah has remained online for the intervening years, but there is only so much that can be done within a single thread. This board will provide more stability for kemono art enthusiasts.
>What's it for?
Sharing pictures of kemono art - a distinctly Japanese style of drawing anthro/furry characters; pics related are good examples. Most pictures are typically cheesecake, but hentai and doujinshi are also permitted.
>Who are you, specifically?
The original BO was Pioneer (who wrote much of this post), an unremarkable internet user who stepped up to become the custodian of this board during its bunker years. His number of administrative actions taken can be counted on one hand.
The new BO is mannuwar, another anon.
>Rules
1) Follow all global rules.
2) Spoil explicit NSFW, such as genitals and explicit sex. Exposed breasts are allowed.
2.1) "Soft NSFW" such as nipple slips, exposed areolas, translucent clothing, camel toes, or stuff that is just barely explicit is allowed.
3) Degenerate fetishes are not allowed: futanari, yaoi, scat, guro, etc. You can mention them if you have a reason to, but don't post any images and refrain from linking to external sources.
3.1) Yuri is allowed, naturally.
3.2) Western-styled art should generally not be posted, but Western artists who draw in a convincing kemono style are allowed.
3.3) SFW male-focused or male-only images are allowed. Softcore yaoi is not.
4) Don't be a faggot or otherwise make the board worse for other people. It is expected you put a modicum of effort and thought into your posts.
5) Please refrain from spamming doujinshi in large quantities (100+ images). At the very least, have something to say about what you're uploading.
6) If you see someone make OC, reply and encourage him. We're all in this together.

>Any way to make a feed for kemono art without logging into Twitter?
Try using an RSS feed. You can use an online RSS or desktop RSS. For online, I recommend Feedbro and Awasu (personal edition) for desktop.
