E621 is starting to suffer from “Fchan Syndrome” (the same thing that ultimately lead to the fall of Fur Affinity).
Too many people (or maybe it’s just ONE person) deciding what is “moral” and what is “correct” rather than just fulfilling their objective as a Furry Art Gallery. When you start trying to decide what is “moral” and what is “ethical” and you force those personally held opinions onto the artist, you’ve FAILED as a furry art gallery.
e621 has consistently gotten worse – as more puritan-minded Mods make their way onto the Staff Roster and they start blatantly bullying Users and Artists alike. Plenty of great artists have simply abandoned e621 because its current policies and beliefs run counter to the policies and beliefs of the artist.
When they finally caved in to the demands of the Fiction Police and banned all “human” art (and effectively any furry x human art by proxy), that signaled the inevitable demise of the once great E6. A handful of angry nit-pickers, or one Mod with a weird agenda, should not have that kind of control over a furry art gallery.
I give it maybe 2 or 3 years before E6 finally goes the next step and bans all Cub / Young furry characters from their website.
As for my feelings about A.I. ????
I don’t even have a dog in that race. If people wanna use A.I. as an assistive tool, I don’t much care. People complained about “sampling” when that became a prominent tool in Music Production. Tools are only as good as the person using them. I don’t think someone is a “lesser musician” if they sample a catchy loop or if they use a DAW to more easily arrange musical notes in a sequence.
