Is DeviantArt dead?
2 years ago
I know this may sound as a salty rant but after the news about AI using art from creators of this side without their knowledge, I've been seeing more and more profiles using AI tools for art, the problem is I see DA is only recommending me that type of art. I feel DA doesn't care to promote art made by humans anymore, a fer weeks ago I received an anon donation for a one month core subscription, I thought this would help me but now I am being more ignored in my post than before. I'm planning to go to other places like Furaffinity (God I can't believe I said that) were they banned AI. I'm planning to make comms for extra cash but the situation on this platform is going to make it difficult (I'm open for comms now BTW).
FA+

I still lurk there every now and then, but I removed my gallery a few years ago. Eclipse was the nail on the coffin as far as I'm concerned. A *lot* of people bailed after that.
You might want to invest in other art spaces if you want to get more exposure and engagement. Nothing wrong with cutting your losses just know what you are getting into if you decide to stay.
