Twitter :/
a year ago
I don't want to use my Twitter SFW account anymore.
- Impossible to grow
- Impossible to gain followers
- Very low activity if someone cool didn't do retweet
- Almost no commissions
When I cleaned this account in July I paid attention to a lot of things. And the most weirder thing: after I reached 1k my account reached 1100 in 1,5 months. But after that... Something happened. Idk what, but I reached only +70 in about six months and still can't get only 6 followers since the end of June to reach 1200.
Idk what's the reason: maybe this is because of algorythm, maybe I got shadowban again, maybe my art became worse than before... I just don't want to know, I'm fucking tired of this.
And the worst: because of situation with Twitter I realizing that I'm totally a loser. And because of this thinking about suicide again and again.
6 years (and 11 years total with very first account), wasted for nothing. T_T

(actually this person is really weird, when he just registered in BlueSky, he started to do that too to be offended)
I know it's hard when you invest so much into something that doesn't pay off but think of this as an opportunity to find a platform that treats you better. So don't worry, you'll find your gripping. :)
But of course because of problem with account situation with commissions became much worse. In past I could get 10 commissions every month there, even last December and January weren't bad: I got a little less, but anyway. But since February... No idea what's happened, I'm getting only 2-3 commissions per month in the better case. And in February and March I got nothing there.
All I can add is this: it's not your fault, social media platforms are often unfair to their users, especially those that aren't primarily art-focused. And always remember that you have followers who would be sad to see you go. You make us happy with your art, no matter the quality. :)
Elon Musk really ruined everything. It's not your fault.
When I comment on your art and repost your art posts, I genuinely mean it, and I do want others to see your art!
I do hope that you're seeing someone about suicidal thoughts. I've had suicidal ideation in the past and it sucks so much.
