The original post was actually pretty good and talked about how reliable of commissioners the furry community were for a struggling artist.

But aight lmao

for anyone who chose not to read the post:

• artist needed money for college, people from tumblr/dA told them their prices were too expensive and that no one would commission them.
• artist was desperate and logged on to their old Furaffinity account to take commissions
• artist got a shitton of commissions and everyone was supportive and encouraging
• people ended up tipping the artist 10-20$ per commission because they thought the artist was undercharging
  

tl;dr - furries supported artist and treated them better than the “pro-artist” sides of dA and tumblr.

Reminds of that Reddit post I found

The TL;DR is that he went to a con expected to walk around laughing at furries being cringey, but was converted when everyone there treated him as part of gang despite his intentions and he had a blast.

It made him realize furries are generally just good people that really love their hobby/fandom and he took the time to tell his story on r/furry and apologize for being a hater.
