Now that the initial registration rush is over, and to better curate membership going forward, https://t.co/N7h96tLh20 is now invite only for all new registrations. If you need an invite, ask a member to give you their invite code!

[BabyFur @BabyFur]

https://t.co/N7h96tLh20 will now be primarily be using Bluesky for website announcements. Please follow (at)https://t.co/NJK20xqjaM (https://t.co/wQF0Fgl9Ry) if you'd like to keep updated on both platforms.

https://t.co/N7h96tLh20 now allows you to register using Telegram in addition to the new invite system. Existing users can also link their telegram accounts to use them for login and 2FA.

2FA is now required when we detect a login from a new different IP or if it's been awhile.

@FarixQuill It's a valid question. For the moment they can use the site's contact form. We will make that more apparent soon. We're also considering some other methods as well.

@kodicub The old site data was destroyed as part of the privacy policy, so all new registration required.

The process to strip location metadata has been completed on all previously uploaded images that contained it on https://t.co/NJK20xqjaM.

@LittleLiam117 "Cookies are yummy." is subjectively factual and the official stance of https://t.co/N7h96tLh20. As point of fact, we are making changes because we care to do the right thing for our community.

[BabyFur @BabyFur]

@LittleLiam117 Context matters. We're not out here to pillage and plunder your data. We're here to provide as safe as a community website as we can, but we do need to protect ourselves too. It's not that unusual of a give-and-take.

@LittleLiam117 zip/postal code and/or set of GPS coordinates (if optionally and explicitly provided). "if optionally and explicitly provided" for location. This is for a babyfur proximity locator feature that has not yet gone live.

[BabyFur @BabyFur]

EXIF/metadata (except color profiles) is now stripped on all uploads going forward on https://t.co/N7h96tLh20. We are working to strip all metadata from previously uploaded images and should have that complete shortly.

[BabyFur @BabyFur]

After receiving some concerns/feedback about content ownership, we have adjusted the https://t.co/N7h96tLh20 ToS to remove mention of outright ownership to submission media and license inline with industry norms. We don't want to own your stuff, just host it.

@ToddlerLynn @Litpup Try again and let me know if it is still not working. Thanks!

[BabyFur @BabyFur]

https://t.co/N7h96tKJcs outbound email has been restored. Hooray!

All accounts that were manually approved will now not have access and will need to click the link to "resend verification" on the sign-in page.

We're also manually re-sending verification emails, one at a time.

[BabyFur @BabyFur]

@Litpup Try again and let me know if it is still not working. Thanks!

[BabyFur @BabyFur]

@ToddlerLynn Thanks for the feedback, these changes have been made:

"After reviewing some feedback, the multi-select “Gender Identity” profile field has been removed and replaced with a write in “Gender” field. As well, the “Preferred Pronouns” has been renamed to “Pronouns”."

[BabyFur @BabyFur]

I am happy to announce the return (well rebirth) of the https://t.co/N7h96tLh20 community. The site is now online and available to all!

You can review the full Go Live Announcement here: https://t.co/EakwEMjeAA

Another round of temporary manual account activations has been completed while we wait for the email vendor. If you signed up since launch, you should be able to access the site.

We will manually approve accounts periodically through the day so try back shortly after sign-up!

[BabyFur @BabyFur]

We are manually enabling user accounts while we work through email issues. You will have access (after we enable your account) and need to verify your email address later when it's fixed.

Those who recently registered should now has access. We will run another batch in the AM.

[BabyFur @BabyFur]

https://t.co/N7h96tLh20 is having some issues with outbound e-mails being blocked causing new accounts to not be able to be verified. We're working on the issue.

[BabyFur @BabyFur]

@IgorModulus @TykeCooney Made a change. Try again?
