I donโ€™t think this is universally the case. There is a lot of promoting of Furry-made media within the community. There can definitely be more and we need to figure out ways to reach the community more effectively. People talk about what they know about.

The furry community is really bad about promoting furry media that's actually made BY FURRIES and will instead exclusively promote childrens media that happens to have anthro characters There's furry books, comics, there used to be conlang projects Support your fellow artist if you want furry art

Itโ€™s something we are thinking a lot about, and not just for products we are directly involved with. The answer will come from all of us, but hopefully we can help facilitate and empower it.

I also feel like, while I get the "By Furries" part, there is room for welcoming and promoting creators (especially those from disadvantaged / marginalized communities) who are willing to embrace and respect the Furry community. Long way of saying we can embrace those who embrace us, too.
