Twitter Ban
a year ago
As you guys might have heard already, Twitter/X was recently banned here in Brazil, and this sucks really badly, it was definitely one of my most used websites for sure. Not only for fun, but also for commissions and similar stuff.
It's said to not be permanent, but considering how crappily Elon is handling the situation, this will probably last a long time.
So because of this, maybe I'll start using this journal feature more often to talk about personal stuff or show WIPs and so on.
I do have a BlueSky account, but I cannot lie that posting there is literally that "talking to a brick wall" image meme, there's simply no reach or engagement and I always see even popular artists barely get more than 5 Likes per post there.
I will still continue to use it anyway though: https://bsky.app/profile/whimsicalem.bsky.social

The bar for something to not be "free speech" in the US is very high and you basically have to be actively planning crime to clear it
That really sucks that you can't access Twitter anymore, though... Utterly disgraceful how badly the site has been botched. Glad you can still communicate here and elsewhere, though!
