Frozarcold Deviantart is Closed For Now (Not Frozarburst)
4 months ago
Hey everyone! This is a weird sorta journal update because normally I like to mention sites I'm going to or have been on if there's a major change. But this time, I'm mentioning a platform I'm off...for now. Long story short, and I'm not ashamed to admit, I was having it rough on the Deviantart side of things, what with comms not going anywhere except for the most random times, stupidity like people failing to read the comm sheet, trades taking forever to do or just never coming out, active trolling, constant spams in the broken DA Chat, and even a HUGE technical hiccup where if you posted any literature in the past with Stash Writer or pre-formatted, it's now a white overlay with light text unless you change the theme of the site itself. Couple that with my finances not being in the best shape right now, and you've got a recipe for disaster!
So, I've decided it's best to leave the platform as Frozarcold. Frozarburst, my main gallery on Deviantart, has surprisingly been just fine, not having to deal with the same issues as the fetishy side of things. The literature for stuff made before last year is still a mess, but that's fixed quickly with the theme change. The last time I worked on this gallery, I started posting more updates to my first book and even posted a bit of fan art that a LOT of people loved. ^^ And it's got me considering making a new fanfic based on it while we wait on the release of The Adventures of Otto over on itchio. :) It's been a blast! And I can say the same on Bluesky too. Sure, political spamming was an issue as well. But once I found the accounts and tags responsible for it, I managed to gut it from my feed. ^^ Itchio, of course, is starting off very small. But it's my first time using the platform as a creator, and the book isn't out yet. So I wasn't expecting much. Still, I'm gonna be posting updates as needed there too and making sure to have the site linked to in future posts on other platforms. ;)
As for my financial situation, my job has been treating me much better than last year. I think I've mentioned it already in a previous update, but despite the shit I've gone through, I'm still living in the same place and all. Just need the extra money for savings and such. Because outside of rent, I have almost nothing. Any comms from 15, 20 bucks or higher come a long way, so don't be discouraged about asking. ;) I forgot to post exactly what was going on in a journal here, but from my main gallery, I said a majority had to do with terrible management and a poor schedule. They've since been dealt with.
All that's to say, Deviantart's been toxic to me on the fetish end of things, and I didn't wanna put up with it anymore. That's why I decided to leave with this announcement --> https://www.deviantart.com/frozarco.....now-1198780996
Not really a breakdown, but it's a far cry from how I try to stay composed, and I apologize. There's just been a lot on my mind and it took the cake and I snapped. That pretty much told me I shouldn't be there for a bit, so I left the message saying I'd be gone for now. I don't know when I'll be back on Frozarcold DA, but definitely not lately, that's for sure. I'm not even logged in. But you can still see what you'd normally get up there up here and on Bluesky now ^^
Aaaand I think that's about it ^^ Again, I'm still active on Frozarburst and all my other sites, just not the Frozarcold side of Deviantart. So if you wanna follow me on anything else, just check the links below ^^ And be sure to check out my itchio page where I'll post more in-depth updates to The Adventures of Otto ^^
Catch ya later! ;)
