Roses are red Violets are blue Where will you go when Floof shuts down the 'foo? Most people reading this won't care, of course, and if this is not a topic of interest to you, please keep scrolling. I'm not attempting to spam your board or eat up your bandwidth. Nonetheless, the owner of anthro.foo has just announced his intent to pull the plug in a few weeks. I know some 'foos already visit this place at least occasionally. Does anyone have any plans, or any ideas? The 'foo is--was--a comfy little imageboard with mostly frenly users and I hate to see it go. To the extent that its users can be described as a "community," then, what's next? A few possibilities have been brought up, none of them especially good. >8kun Cesspit. hope u liek CP spam, amirite? >8moe See above. >4chan Cesspit with mods and jannies who are inept at best, actively malicious at worst. >Averi.foo The owner and userbase, as far as I can tell, are implacably hostile to Anfoo. It's their right, of course. But that makes it very much not an appropriate place to go when Floof turns out the lights. >any and all soy/sharty themed or adjacent boards Same as the above, but with 20% more grotesque soyjak spam. >Discord/Facebook/Telegram/Instagram/Whatsapp/Google Plus/Myspace/Xwitter/Bluesky/Truth Social I am not doxing myself to talk about cute cartoon fox waifus. >Capybarachan's /kemono/ board I am not sure it'd be appropriate either. This is an established community with its own userbase. There has already been some friction. I anticipate perceptions of an attempted takeover and a great deal of resentment. I don't think it will end well. Small imageboards and small altchans have been dying for a while now. There are fewer and fewer places left where you can funpost with some reasonable exception of privacy, and not many of them are likely to be friendly to a homeless group of cartoon fox enjoyers. Wat do?
