Announcing termination and archival of yiffit.net in 2025: we will be gone, but hopefully immortalized. (yiffit.net)
submitted 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) by Wander@yiffit.net to c/meta@yiffit.net
18 comments fedilink

Hello everyone,

I'm sad to announce that I've come to the decision that it would be best to archive this instance given the overhead in administration and moderation that would be required to run it correctly.

Please note that this announcement ONLY impacts yiffit.net and that I have no intention of terminating packmates.org at all.

There is several reasons for this decision but most of them are based on my inability to run the instance with the quality and care that I envisioned. Due to the nature of Lemmy, the necessary moderation effort, media storage costs and admin effort are considerably higher than for a Mastodon instance, for example. It's not a matter of donations, which many of you have generously offered over the lifespan of the instance.

What is meant by termination and archival?

Some time after January 3rd 2025, fulfilling my promise of giving at least 3 months notice, the following will happen:

  • Yiffit will stop federating, all user sessions will be revoked and logins will be disabled.
  • The site will effectively become a read-only version, giving access only to local communities. NSFW communities will be accessible publicly without need for an account although equipped with an age disclaimer and anything else necessary to display adult content.
  • Remote communities and posts will no longer be accessible, thus remote instances need not worry that we would somehow cache any content which they would have wanted deleted if federation had been enabled.
  • Local comments and posts from remote users will be preserved.
  • There will be a way to receive and process personal account / data deletion requests for yiffit.net users or remote users who have submitted a comment or post.
  • I will attempt to find a way to have the site officially archived in the Internet Archive or in any similar way.
  • I will continue paying for the domain and hosting for an indeterminate period of time, especially since the storage costs of local content as opposed to remote content are negligible.

Technically there is a chance that we could come back at some point since I'll make sure to save the server's federation authentication keys as well as all local content, but I don't want users to count on it.

If we were to come back it would probably be in a form other than a Lemmy instance or anything else that I currently am aware exists out there.

If you want to post a farewell message, please feel free to send a comment below since everything will be archived and visible. Before archiving the instance, around New Year's Eve I'll create the final farewell message thread. Both this thread and the final farewell message thread will be pinned in the home page when the site is archived.

Thank you everyone for everything. I'm incredibly humbled by all the interest and users we've received over time and especially all the regular users who've kept posting constantly despite the downturn in activity.

How to create your own community on Yiffit.net (even if you're a remote user)! (yiffit.net)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by Wander@yiffit.net to c/meta@yiffit.net
10 comments fedilink

This post will explain how you can create your own community on Yiffit, regardless of whether you are a local user at this instance or not.

Background: We have restricted the unsupervised creation of communities since that could potentially lead to abuse due to the limited moderating tools that lemmy currently has.

Via request, we will still allow you to create as many communities as you want and to manage them as you see fit. We just want to avoid malicious actors.

The silver lining is that this will also allow us to create communities for remote users!

How to request your own community

The process is very simple:

  1. Make sure you have created an introductory post about yourself at !chat@yiffit.net. This is the only condition.
  2. Send a private message to @Wander@yiffit.net with the text "COMMUNITY REQUEST" in all caps and then the following fields:
  • Handle (all lowercase, no spaces, underscore allowed)
  • Display name
  • If it's a NSFW, SFW or Mixed community
  • Whether everyone or only moderators can make posts

Note: you can create communities about nearly any topic. Non-furry and personal communities are more than welcome.

3a. If you're a local user, the community will be created for you, you'll be appointed as mod and then ownership will be transferred to you.

3b. If you're a remote user, the community will be created for you and you'll be appointed as mod. @Wander@yiffit.net will have to stay as owner since we can't transfer it to you, but we will not interfere with your vision or project for the community.

Community handles will be given on a first-come, first-serve basis. Community handles need to be unique, but there's no limit on how many communities about similar topics we create as long as they're not abandoned straight away and at least some effort is put into them to get them started. Thus, for example, if 10 people want a community about protogens but each with their own style of moderation, we'll be happy to accommodate you (although we might have a fuse blow due to toaster overload :P).

Despite the restriction on unsupervised community creation, it is still our intention to allow anyone to create any community they see fit as long as it abides by the instances's overarching rules

Welcome to Yiffit.net! ::: Log In or subscribe in order to be able to see all content and read this post to get started! (yiffit.net)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by Wander@yiffit.net to c/meta@yiffit.net
0 comments fedilink

Welcome! This pinned post will have everything you need to get started as well as useful information about yiffit.net for fellow instance administrators.

First: please log-in on Yiffit.net or subscribe via a NSFW-enabled instance to be able to see all content. This link will give you information on how to be able to view NSFW posts.

Instance overview

With reddit banning NSFW subs via their API and possibly altogether, Yiffit aims to be a free and open alternative dedicated to sharing furry artwork, always with attribution.

Content: SFW & NSFW, leaning towards the latter
Federation: Enabled
Community creation: Enabled via request. Users can create and moderate their own communities!
Registrations: open, with manual approval to prevent abuse
Notable rules:

  • No underage characters.
  • All NSFW content must be appropriately flagged.
  • All posts must have attribution and the DNP list must be respected.
  • Sharing content that is behind a pay wall (piracy) is strictly forbidden.
  • Real NSFW photos and videos are only allowed if they are related to the submitter (eg. a selfie). This is to prevent distribution of sensitive photos without permission of the people depicted in them.
  • Posting via bots is allowed as long as long as it's within the established frequency limits.

While unusual if you're not familiar with furry nsfw artwork, this instance's content is safe and legal to federate with.

DNP, Takedown requests or inquiries can be sent to @Wander@yiffit.net (Fediverse) or wanderpackmatesorg (email).

If you're a moderator of a furry or yiff subreddit and would like to jump on board of the moderation team at Yiffit, please let us know!

Notable communities

Please note that you'll need to be logged in to this instance or any other federated instance which allows NSFW in order to view most of these communities. Lemmy.ml does currently NOT allow you to access adult content from their instance.

Instance rules

  1. You need to be +18 years old to sign up, view content from or send messages to this instance.
  2. All submissions that are not original content must include attribution in the title.
  3. All submissions that are not original content should include a link to the artist's gallery or profile. Please note that this should be a page managed by the artist, not a link to e621. Fortunately you'll find link to valid sources on e621 itself.
  4. Links to the artist's gallery or profile should not link to pages that are known to be problematic or be dedicated to hosting content featuring underage characters in a NSFW situation.
  5. Submissions from artists in the DNP list are not allowed (see list below).
  6. NSFW artwork featuring underage characters is not allowed.
  7. AI created images are currently not allowed. Once the instance grows large enough we'll ask for user feedback on how to approach this matter and hear out our user's opinions.
  8. IRL NSFW content is allowed only if:
  • It is related to you in some way (a photo of yourself, a photo you took, etc...)
  • You have permission to share the photo
  • Every third party in the photo is either blurred out, non-identifiable or you have their permission to publicly share the photo with their faces visible.
  1. Do not post anything that was published behind a paywall and which was not publicly shared by the artist.
  2. If you are an artist, you can advertise yourself in the !commissions@yiffit.net community. There you are free to post links to your Patreon or similar and share links to e-commerce platforms or pricing pages.
  3. More extreme content should be posted under its own community instead of using the general communities.
  4. Aside from underage characters, there is a ban on extreme gore, snuff and similarly sadistic depictions that include some for of mutilation, non-trivial amounts of blood and death. This ban is currently indefinite but will be removed once lemmy has better moderation tools and we have a way to ensure that our site is not used to glorify problematic behavior. The ban on underage characters and characters that can evidently be mistaken of being underage is permanent.
  5. No discussion of anything potentially illegal or which could get the instance in trouble. If in doubt message @Wander@yiffit.net.
  6. No soliciting, advertising or dog-whistling regarding prohibited or illegal content.
  7. No toxicity, no hate speech, no harassment, no brigading, no kinkshaming, no bigotry, etc...
  8. No discussion of politics in local-instance posts and comments. There's other instances better suited for that. Feel free to use this instance's account to engage in remote content involving politics as long as it doesn't fall into the restrictions of rule #15.
  9. If you believe that any content violates the rules, please file a report.
  10. Use the !meta@yiffit.net to discuss ideas and improvement suggestions.

DNP List

The following artists have expressed their desire to not have their artwork shared even with attribution. Please respect their wishes:

  1. It is a safe assumption that anyone not wanting their artwork shared on e621 wouldn't want to have it shared on here. Please follow e621's DNP list as a baseline
  2. Please also make sure you check e621's conditional DNP list.
  3. (There are no more entries due to Yiffit.net being very new)

FAQ

Q: Where does the name "Yiffit" come from?
A: It's a wordplay on a) reddit, which will ban access to NSFW subs via third party apps soon, as well as b) "Yiff it (fuck it), we'll run our own community with trading card games and femboy foxes"

Q: Who or what is the mascot?
A: It's a Hyena, due to "Yeen" and "Yiffit" starting with the same language. They have no name yet! Suggestions are more than welcome!

Q: Can I create a community for a specific type of content?
A: Yes, and you'll be able to moderate it according to your rules as long as it doesn't violate the overarching instance-wide rules. Also, you will need an account on Yiffit.net to be able to create a new community.

Q: Can I create a bot that posts automatically?
A: Yes, but it should be limited to one submission every two hours per community and it needs to include attribution at least in the title. We might increase or decrease the bot posting frequency depending on how it goes.

ERROR incorrect_login but only on my PC? (yiffit.net)
submitted 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) by Kolanaki@yiffit.net to c/meta@yiffit.net
3 comments fedilink

I got on my PC today and noticed that yiffit, my homepage, won't log me in and just keeps giving this red banner popup in the left corner that says "error incorrect_login."

I know it's not my login/password combo; I am able to use Jerboa and Firefox on my phone to log in and do stuff (that's how I am writing this post!) but on my computer it won't let me in! Cleared the history, cache, saved info, etc and it just keeps giving me this damn error even when I try to open the login page to make sure it's trying the right info.

The main page itself just gives me the standard "server issue" error that I assume is Lemmy's default error page when it can't reach the server. But again, I am only getting this problem on my PC; my other devices allow me to browse and post just fine, so I have no idea what the heck is going on here. Is it my end or the server?

Weird behavior with youtube links (yiffit.net)
submitted 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) by l_b_i@yiffit.net to c/meta@yiffit.net
4 comments fedilink

Has anybody noticed weird behavior with links to youtube? Specifically, instead of the video description, I just see some German text, which translation says is a boilerplate of what youtube is. From yiffit, no image and german text, from pawb, image and accurate description. . This looks like a recent change, everything older than about 2 days ago looks fine.

This is observed from the default desktop website.

Edit: Based on the comment from @Pronell@lemmy.world I would guess youtube made a recent change and the language is generated based on where the lemmy instance is hosted.

Next day edit (July 21): Whatever was causing has reverted. Videos posted the affected days are still messed up, but new posts look like they're working like they used to.

Edit: later in the day. Whatever it is is back.

Closing Registrations. Reflecting on viability of continuation of Yiffit (yiffit.net)
submitted 7 months ago by Wander@yiffit.net to c/meta@yiffit.net
19 comments fedilink

Hello, Unfortunately I am not able to take care of Yiffit as it deserves. Unfortunately, having been blocked by lemmy.ml, Yiffit is not a good instance to explore the lemmyverse because it is restricted. At the same time, I feel like there's countles off other sites where Yiff can be found in a better way.

I have closed registrations for the time being as I gather feedback and collect my thoughts.

Thank you and apologies.

General inbound federation question (yiffit.net)
submitted 7 months ago by l_b_i@yiffit.net to c/meta@yiffit.net
1 comments fedilink

@Wander@yiffit.net is everything working as expected for inbound federation? casual conversations moved from lemmy.world to lemm.ee I don't see any comments or votes in the lemm.ee community from before yiffit was aware of its existence. I think I've seen this other places too, so I don't know if this is how its supposed to work, or its just a quark of the current code. In general federation to lemmynsfw is just broken here.

Are there federation problems with Hexbear or did they stop moderating with Yiffit? (yiffit.net)
submitted 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) by Xirup@yiffit.net to c/meta@yiffit.net
5 comments fedilink

I really only follow one Hexbear community here in Yiffit which is !libre@hexbear.net, but I just noticed that since 4 months ago there are no updates in c/libre here in Yiffit, although if you go to the community directly from Hexbear there are new recent posts, and a lot of them.

I already checked the instances blocked by Hexbear and Yiffit doesn't seem to be among them, but neither in "allowed" or "linked" instances, although I have no idea what it's the difference between these.

Any idea why this could be?

Federation issues with lemmy.ml (yiffit.net)

I'm not sure if this is a problem specifically with linux@lemmy.ml because I don't follow any other lemmy.ml communities, but it's been a month since the last post in there according to the Yiffit version of the community and yes, I'm filtering by new and if you go directly to the community in its instance there are a lot of new posts that never reach Yiffit.

I have another account in Dbzer0 and there are no federation issues with Lemmy.ml or at least with linux@lemmy.ml.

  1. Is Yiffit going to defederate from Threads? I kinda wanna see what happens with it first before someone else decides to block it, and this is my primary instance so I'm curious what the admins think and plan to do.
  2. Are y'all gonna be updating to 0.19 soon? No particular reason other than curiosity on that and I am using Liftoff so I'll have to switch apps when ya do lol

I have enabled once again the possibility of creating communities without the need of prior approval. Any Yiffit user is now able to create their community.

Since things have slowed down considerable and I'm introducing new automated tools such as the Yiffit helper bot, it's now possible for me to put in place some safeguards and allow community creation without the need for approval.

Pending Tasks by Yiffit administration (yiffit.net)
submitted 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) by Wander@yiffit.net to c/meta@yiffit.net
5 comments fedilink

For the sake of transparency, I'm sharing a list of pending tasks that I know are pending. Hopefully this will also let you know that I'm aware of it and will progressively take them on.

  1. Currently the helper bot does not post if it can only find an e621 result, even if that e6 post has sources.

  2. Currently the community list updater bot is not scheduled and needs to be setup to run at least every day.

  3. The helper bot needs a dedicated username.

  4. Publish revised version of recommended tagging for posts

  5. Hold vote/poll to name the mascot

  6. I am testing a utility that will allow users to automatically share images they like when browsing e6 or FA.

  7. Make a statement regarding the removal of the Pokeyiff community, but to sum it up, it is unfortunate that its creator decided to delete it, but I don't think it would be right for me to meddle with their decision as I want community owners truly feel that a community is theirs, even if that means deleting it.

  8. Update the main welcome post.

This is a spam instance that reposts reddit content, but the worst part is it creates a new user for every reddit user, making it impossible to block.

Since we can't block instances at the user level yet, I request we defederate from this spam instance

The Yiffit Helper bot is now live! (yiffit.net)
submitted 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) by Wander@yiffit.net to c/meta@yiffit.net
0 comments fedilink

Hello, after a few test posts yesterday, the new Yiffit Helper bot is now live. You can see a couple of examples here:

https://yiffit.net/comment/3707677

and here:

https://yiffit.net/comment/3692105

The goal of the bot is to boost our appreciation for the work that artists do by linking directly to their gallery and post-submission. This is especially useful for little known artists who will appreciate if you follow them, favorite their image, or check out their gallery.

Please note: the bot only runs in communities where @Wander is a moderador. If you'd like to enable the bot in your own community, leave a comment here or send me a PM with the name of your community. You're free to choose whether to enable the bot or not.

Also, aside for the test runs that I've been doing, the bot will not comment on old posts to avoid notification flood. Instead it's set to now run every 30 minutes for new submissions.

If the bot fails to make a comment for your post, it probably means that it couldn't find a good match. It's not a perfect solution that will always work, but hopefully it will work as much as possible.

Thoughts on having a comment on every post that links to a list of local communities? (yiffit.net)
submitted 1 year ago by l_b_i@yiffit.net to c/meta@yiffit.net
8 comments fedilink

One of the harder aspects of navigation in lemmy is seeing interesting new communities on remote instances. What if there was a post here (meta) or chat that had links to all the local communities and when a new post is made to yiffit, a comment is added that links to the chat/meta post. That way if someone stumbles on something here they like, they don’t have to use some work around to see what else is here. I don’t know much about the lemmy API, but the list could simply check once a day?/week?/month? and update the post if anything changed.

Yes, I am aware !newcommunities@yiffit.net exists, but remote users probably aren't. I am also aware of the link in the sidebar (when present), but that is outdated and you only see it if you know its there.

Announcing status.packmates.org and status.yiffit.net (packmates.org)

Announcing status.packmates.org and status.yiffit.net

Heya everyone!
I've been mostly silent for some time, but it's all with good reason (I promise!)

Over the last few days I've spent a lot of time on server maintenance. Many of these changes will be invisible to you as users (such as getting a /48 ipv6 range, setting up SLAAC/DHCPv6, reviewing security and firewall rules, etc...)

But today I set up something that I can share: status pages!

Head over to:
- https://status.packmates.org
- https://status.yiffit.net

(they're the same page actually, but the different domain is to make it easier to remember if you're a user of one site and not the other).

There's a slight caveat in that the status page is hosted on the hypervisor itself, so if that goes down, everything goes down but you'll at least know by not being able to load the status page itself!

Ideally I would host this somewhere external but we're not there yet. One day I hope to even have a server cluster for redundancy, but we'd have to host many more services to be able to justify this.

Tagging rules for intersex and ambiguous characters (yiffit.net)
submitted 1 year ago by AwoosWhenClose@yiffit.net to c/meta@yiffit.net
8 comments fedilink

Just to be clear, I don't want us to be super picky about tags - IMO as long as it's understandable, anything is okay. However, Pokémon yiff has a pinned thread talking about this, and I've been PMed asking how to tag something. Basically, even if we don't want to enforce it, it might be useful to have some standard as a guideline.

Many communities reference the tagging rules of the main !yiff community, which includes tags for male and female. However, it does not specify rules for characters that fall outside that spectrum, or whose gender is unknown (due to being obscured, for example). This has resulted in tagging being a bit ad-hoc (e.g. [H], [I], [G], for gynomorphs), and might feel a bit exclusionary for a site that claims to be "queer".

Just as something to propose, how about we update the tagging rules to be something like this (to be similar to e621's gender tags):

  • [M] For male characters.
  • [F] For female characters.
  • [G] For gynomorph (feminine character with a dick but no pussy).
  • [A] For andromorph (masculine character with a pussy but no dick).
  • [H] For herm (character with both a pussy and dick).
  • [U] For Unknown/unclear.

This would also mean retiring pairing codes ("G" for "gay", "S" for straight and so on) in favour of "M/M" and "M/F".

Yiffit.net has been migrated to a new server. (yiffit.net)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by Wander@yiffit.net to c/meta@yiffit.net
7 comments fedilink

**Edit: migration completed. Apologies for the reboots. **

Everything is working smoothly except for the network configuration. I wanted to make some changes but I didn't manage to get this new network configuration to work. For now I've left it with the old configuration and with some time I'll fiddle around with subnet masks and static routes in order to improve VM isolation. Since Yiffit is currently the only VM on the server (packmates.org is next), it doesn't matter that much right now.

OLD POST BELOW

I'm preparing a migration to the new server that I've set up. The change should be transparent for you as users for now except for the small downtime of about 1h that could happen between today and tomorrow (I'm sorry for not being able to be more exact since it depends on some variables such as me doing testing to ensure that everything will work correctly).

After the migration, I'll share more details and also explain the new setup and which benefits we can expect from the new server in the future.

Thank you and apologies for the inconvenience <3

Rules update: we have removed the temporary ban on certain content now that our instance is better established. (yiffit.net)
submitted 1 year ago by Wander@yiffit.net to c/meta@yiffit.net
1 comments fedilink

When this instance was created, I put in place a ban on certain content that could get us in trouble in regards to federating with other instances since we weren't yet too well known.

Now that two months have passed I hope we have established ourselves as an instance with good moderation and have lifted the ban for most content.

There are currently two content categories that are still banned:

  1. Underage characters & characters that very evidently look underage to anyone who doesn't know the character's lore (ie. 1000 year old spirit trapped in the body of a minor). This ban is permanent.

  2. Content featuring gore, mutilation, death and non-trivial amounts of blood. This ban is indefinite but can be overturned once lemmy has better moderation tools and I find a way to ensure that by allowing this content we are not inadvertently allowing the glorification of problematic behavior or allow networking of malicious sadism.

Thank you.
