SO.. I'm actually curious about smth.
Statistics.
For example, let's imagine there's an artist with 5k watchers. But they only get 100+ faves or even 50+ for each work.
Question. What are the other 4900+ watchers are doing? do they even exist yet? Not blaming, but I'm just really curious to understand.
Is it because the "nuke" button on fa? :D
which I kinda doubt because it's not just fa, it can be anywhere else as well.
but then HOW and WHY does it work like? WHAT creates this kind of statistics, 90/10? or 80/20 if you're more lucky/active/pick whatever?
This can't be just forgetting to fav/like.
Which means, they need smth else?.. but they never answer, right? just hoping to get smth they like someday, staying silent, correct?
I'm also curious because I don't think I see many faves from the people, like, watched me from years ago.. then where are they? did they live fa and moved to other platforms? all the 2400?
Of course, drawing fanart, hyping on smth may add some attention to you, but still, where's everyone else??
for me personally, I have this kind of statistics for 2400+ watchers and about 10/20 favs for about several years, I do believe there was a bit brighter past with more favs years ago :D
But still. the question is the same.
And if this statistics is working like a charm, then what's the point?? you'll never get (well ok, not you, me in this case xD) more than ~20-25 likes if lucky. Well ok, less than 40+ if it's somehow gets 4-5k.
Does it mean I have to leave this account and create new one?? Why? I never actually understood why people are doin this, especially on fa, like does it actually help? Reuploading all your stuff for last years of drawing makes smth good? rly? doubt it. Is like, shapeshifting and pretending you're smth new, how does it actually help?? I might not know smth, but yet i see no logic in it. Does it mean watchers don't really care about the artist, but the um.. idunno, is it smth close to the collecting hobby idea, like in gacha games?.. So like when you see some new character/artist/their 5* or even 6* version, you want them more than you did when you first saw it?? Pray tell, is THIS how it works?
It is also a shame FA does not have any good promotion scripts. Even the advertisement does nothing now. It somehow did some years ago, not now apparently. :\
wish they'd upgrade this side of FA too someday..
p.s. offtop: ah btw, I just recently saw a new artist here (I'll keep the name silent, I'm curious if people are able to see the trick by themselves.), pretending they're artists but, with all the exp I have, I can see they're tracing over the ai-generations (pipeline is generate, gaussian blur/posterize, lineart, retrace with hard and soft brushes, mix shading, upload) so clearly it makes me so disgusted I wanna vomit.. x_x' so don't be like this. Eugh. Epic fail from the start.
I assume it's that exact social platform type of artists who think furries make them absolutely rich with their fetishes, just "draw" whatever. Right?
Unless... people don't care anymore if that's ai or not to buy.. then we're kinda screwed.
