Update
3 years ago
I mentioned this on cohost and Mastodon over the past few days, and figured I'd let folks here know too.
I'm gonna be extracting myself from Twitter over the next few weeks. There's too much insecurity and instability there with the new god-king in charge, heaped on top of other problems that had already been rampant. Plus it's still hard to get over how they've mistreated my boyf over the past year with their ridiculous systems and useless support.
As an indie creator, it'll hurt to lose my audience there, and I'll miss some of the community we'd carved out in that space. But it's also becoming clear I can't depend on that service going forward, and I don't want to rely on it as a crutch. I can't afford to passively wait and see what happens.
You're probably already following me here, so that's cool. :) I'm gonna try to be a bit more active here going forward. I'll also be exploring other new and revived communities, such as Mastodon, Tumblr, cohost, Itaku -- who knows which will be well-managed and which people will flock to, but I'll keep an eye on them all and try go be where the people are. You can always find a list of my active accounts at both https://cooner.johntoons.com and at https://linktr.ee/cooner … I'll keep both updated.
Strip #110 of My Bigger Boyfriend coming up in a couple weeks will be the last posted to Twitter. (It happens to be a nice breaking point.) Of course I'll continue to post it here, and you can always read the full archive at https://mybiggerboyfriend.com/ or get it weekly via the Telegram channel at https://t.me/mybiggerboyfriend . I'm also going to experiment with crossposting to Mastodon, Tumblr, and Itaku for now, and see how those sites do. Any additions or subtractions in future I'll keep folks updated.
Thanks, everyone! This is (another) rocky time for a lot of independent creators and artists, and I appreciate everyone's support. If you're trying out any of those new sites, please feel free to give me a follow. And of course if you wanna support my comics and my works feel free to join my Patreon. ;)
