he recently had a meeting with india's leader where he basically said that twitter would follow the government demands if necessary

What will happen is that this retarded change gets reverted in less than 3 days because if they don't this website will unironically die in one week. Fighting scrapers that way is like cutting your arm off because you're annoyed by a mosquito biting it, there are better ways to solve this issue without fucking over literally your entire userbase.

It would still be wise to look for alternatives socials if you haven't already. Instagram is the next most solid option, maybe even fucking Facebook, Youtube or Tiktok. Get used to doing short timelapses with music in the background or .gifs because zoomers love that shit and will eat it up. I know it's bad but as long as no better social platform arises, this is what we're stuck with (Mastodon is shit, its not straightforward enough for normals). Socials won't adapt to us artfags so we have to adapt ourselves somehow.

My vain hope is that this will push people back to using actual art websites like Tumblr or Pixiv. But the Internet is so rotten right now, people have gotten used to everything crystallized on the same 5 garbage mobilefaggot apps.

>The group of guys
Literally one guy who was attending some comic convention when the site got advertised on TH and pummeled with a >10x increase in userbase from about a hundred to thousands overnight
Had to pull all nighters, was scrambling to upgrade serves, & assign mods/admins, which were just his friends and randos on on discord, meanwhile discord is blowing up and drama is happening because the site doesn't have legal work or NSFW filters for minors, because it was just a random hobby project until suddenly it wasn't. Dude is openly breaking down but working his butt off to try and satisfy all these demands while being crushed under a guilt complex preventing him from just TURNING OFF REGISTRATIONS
Person who originally advertised the site (and kicked this whole thing off inadvertently) applies for a discord mod position, gets it, immediately starts proposing ways to monetize the site alongside other ideas that require decent time for the one (1) dude to program, vagues about it on Twitter, gets kicked off the mod team, (being on it for 2 days) then announces on TH that people shouldn't use Sheezy because it's badly run, and a huge backlash happens over Sheezy 'Mistreating its mods' because of this
Registrations finally close but it's too late and admin has broken down from the stress and drama already and closes the site. This all happened within like 3 weeks
I'm salty over the whole thing because the site itself was great when you ignore everything else that went on and feel awful for the admin in this

Imagine, you own a website that employs janitors that make $0 to not ban people, but to warn other mods of people who need to be banned instead. You run this website until it becomes notorious to people the government labels as degenerates. You keep running it as it becomes more populate and more filled with the same people. You keep running it despite all your ad revenue drying up and disappearing due to your notoriety. You keep hosting illegal content, minute by minute due to the torpid method of moderation you chose. Your website violates FBI/CIA/Name an agency laws 24/7, with no downtime for the most part. Meanwhile while all of this is happening over the course of 10-15 years, every single other website even close to mimicking you is complying with all those laws this one isn't.
