A ‘mascot’ is really not that far off for some. A lot of furries use fursonas as an idealized version of themselves or who they’d like to be. In my probably biased opinion I think it does a lot more for mental health than you might think. Others use them as OCs and play with them like dolls which I guess doesn’t really apply here.
Pro tip: if you write cross-instance links like !furry_irl@pawb.social instead of full URLs, it opens on your instance instead of the target one meaning you stay logged in. Also it doesn’t open a browser if you click it on mobile.

Good news, my mental health is about to improve.
Warning there is a whole ass iceberg and not everyone is on the same level.
