Why I love/hate Twitter
2 years ago
Journals are meant for personal feelings and opinions right? This has nothing to do with the drama about the takeover by the way lol, that's a dead horse.
I post stuff on Twitter to basically back up my stuff but man... It is the WORST place to get started or noticed on there, unless you know a lotta people already. I suppose if you get the right retweets by the right people at the right time, you'll get some attention, but on here, boom. Guaranteed views for a few minutes. Not a fault of the site, I just feel so much more comfortable on FA for interacting.
However for those same reasons, I've found (been shown by Twitter) some of my most favorite artists from this community and have had a few laughs on there as well. I can get information about certain things quickly, and get recommendations I wouldn't have thought possible.
I guess I'm saying in the end, I'll never be as active on there as I am on here and I hope for my sake this site doesn't die lol.

Besides that obvious part lol. Remember when Tumblr was a viable option? FA has just always been "Ol' Reliable" all these years. I know there's other sites too but again, I'd have to have already had a following to be seen on them. I like it here =3
