Putting out an official announcement about this here too, though in more detail than Twitter. You can read the FurAffinity journal I made going over this decision here:
https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/10557911
To put it simply - not only do I no longer feel comfortable or safe using FurAffinity, I feel insulted by its staff, and I refuse to use it in any capacity anymore, including allowing them to gain even a minuscule amount of traffic from people reading my stories there.
As a result, all of my stories have been officially removed from the website now. The documents and descriptions have been replaced with a brief explanation that links to the journal above instead. I wanted to preserve the comments and kind interactions I had with people on that website still, so the shell of the stories have stayed, at least for now. I don't know if they'll be taken down in the future, either by myself or someone in charge.
I have always uploaded all of my stories to SoFurry, where they are all still entirely available for people to read at any time, and if this were ever to be lost, I keep everything I've written saved to my hard drive as well, and can always repost them.
I am also officially setting up shop at other websites where I feel a bit more comfortable - currently this extends to Weasyl, it seems to be a good place from what I've seen and heard, and I'll be posting all of my old stories there over the coming days. If I find more places where I at least feel comfortable enough to start up an account, I'll keep people posted on that.
Thank you all, and I hope to see everyone on greener pastures.~
