Twitch! Telegram channel! And some thoughts about uploadi...
a year ago
I know I’m so much behind with posting my works online… Gosh, I see here it's almost exactly a year from my last submission - time flies so quick, oops! I do work and art still but do not feel like posting… dunno what’s that exactly, my boyfriend calls it some kind of burnout 🔥 I don’t enjoy watching others much because lots of posts are so much adjusted to match algorithms… and here, well, my inbox exploded so I need to check and clean that slowly. I don’t blame artists, I understand so well why do they do it 🫶 and when I make myself open social media, my energy / willpower / social battery suddenly drops down I close it again soon without posting anything (even though I manage to get some concepts with unfinished hashtags done)… Seeing everywhere so much content (I hate to call art "content" but that's what AI products) created by AI and people selling it and dA-site even spotlighting them like that's the only correct way we should "create". I still can't get why on Earth we are leaving to computers doing something what gives us join instead of leaving them work.
As many others, I’m looking for safe place for artists… hopefully Cara will be solution?

I’m still undecided about my dA page as it’s the only place with my complete art history - not going to delete it for sure but I’m also unsure about quit posting there. I want to get back to submitting my works here as well ❤️
… and on the brighter side, this situation made me think more again about streaming. Suddenly, I did few streams for smaller telegram group of friends and I enjoyed it! 💖 I’m nervous even it was muted but also enjoyed it - would be happy if you feel like supporting me by follow 🫶 hopefully, we will hit 50 subscribers soon to unlock Affiliate with custom emotes and more benefits.
Twitch acc here, would appreciate any follow or share:

I would love to see you post a bit more regularly here though, when you are feeling a bit more in better spirits again.
I probably would stop posting to deviantart. I'm sure they use all new submissions to train on their ai trash anyway despite going through the trash and complicated process to "opt out."
I'm just happy to see you. 💙 Take what time you need.
Keeping FA active and up to date again is definitely part of the plan - I still keep getting quite much more attention and reactions to posted works on dA but honestly, their strategies are worse every time I'm brave enough to check. I agree with you about AI training strategies but I guess it's all the same at other places supporting AI. After all, pictures even from here is public so reachable for training as well. Of course it's not legal but so far who cares :(
FA is over the years always the second place after dA for me so it's probably should be manageable easier than starting another acc somewhere else. And of course, here I've already met some lovely and supportive followers just like you! <3 Thank you for stopping by and comment here ^^
