Nothing is objective, least of all morality. And not everyone “knows inside when they do something wrong”. Some people are legit wired differently and don’t care, or actually get positive feedback from those screams you sarcastically brought up.

Depends on what you mean by ‘comparable’! I think the two fandoms are quite similar, just that bronies focus on being a fan of one series whereas furries are more fans of the idea of anthropomorphized characters, or animal-ish characters.

And there’s a lot of differences between fans, too. Just in like any fandom. I’m pretty sure for some it might be a kink like the stereotype says, but other MLP fans use it as a vehicle for self-expression or self-discovery through the prosocial messages and themes. Ultimately it’s a complicated topic that one could write a lot about!

I believe it’s because a lot of people (or, enough people that it’s a thing) will subscribe to a channel for a specific sort of content, not a personality. If the channel starts to do things that aren’t that content, then people will unsubscribe so as to avoid seeing random things they don’t want to have cluttering up their subscription feed.

Not OP as well, but as someone who relies on chronological and abhors recommended/algorithm feeds: I don’t doubt that it’s because if a site has a chronological feed then you as an artist or content creator know that when you post something (say, 5 o’clock), it will show up on everyone’s subscription/follow feed when they scroll past 5 o’clock on their feed, it 100% appears to them during their scroll. It will always be there, in that spot.

With algorithm feeds, it’s literally anyone’s guess as to when or if your post will show up in their feeds, since it randomly populates what they see with content from any random time period. And good luck trying to find a post you came across the other day, or in an earlier session on the website.

To say nothing of how a user’s / business’s page can appear if it’s not displayed chronologically. Same issue there, only worse since you’d ideally want to be showing the most recent things you’ve been displaying or posting as it’s most relevant to what you do.

ostensibly it’s because the porn industry is unstable financially, and connected to a lot of shady issues/illegal practices that could open them up to some kinds of liability. (I don’t remember which sorts)
