Wait, where are you getting your information?! From what I've found, FFN only updates their Twitter/X once in a blue moon and I can't find any other source of news from them.
The FFN admins are almost completely silent as far as I can tell, to the point where I sometimes genuinely wonder if anyone is still running the site anymore or if it's been left to drift through space on autopilot ._.
Their very belated crackdown on the spambots was the first sign of life I'd seen from them in quite a while, and even then, I could only tell they were doing it because when I went to routinely block a new batch of spammers, the accounts had already been suspended, which was a refreshing change from the previous year of unchecked spambot hell.
I've been blogging about this situation on pillowfort for over a yr now (bc folks talk about this occurring on IG and dA, etc, too; my posts on the topic are locked to logged-in-users there, tho 😅), but aside from my first-hand experience on FFN, I check forums over there as well as use Nitter to stay on top of their Twt/X bc I don't have an acct there.
Their last post was from Sept 3rd, but they've been moderately active. And Admin/Staff are deffo tackling these things across sites, wherever users are posting. (I know tumblr nips things p quickly.)
They rly aren't silent, tho; they're just a small team.
It's hard to tell with Twitter/X because tweets are now posted in a COMPLETELY RANDOM order as far as I can tell, rather than chronologically. X'''D I can't find a way to sort tweets by date rather than by whatever insane metrics the algorithm uses (???). At least, I can't find a way to do it as an anon; maybe that's something you can only do if you're logged in?? Who knows.
