Due to various international circumstances, and I've always hated Patreon for stalking artists' social media accounts, so I deactivated that account. I also wanted to avoid putting my artwork in places where algorithms could find it, so I destroyed my DeviantArt account. I also disabled my art accounts on Bluesky, Instagram, Threads, and Facebook, and set up dummy accounts on various social media platforms by hooking them into search engines.
In the end, I'm not personally skilled enough to manage multiple social media accounts, so I thought it would be better for UX to keep my activity, both for updates and for Watcher, in just a few places. So...
Going forward, I'll be consolidating all of my activities centered around my personal website.

For support, please support me via Ko-fi! I have plans available, so by linking Ko-fi with Discord, you'll have access to early access, exclusive art, and more. (I explored many alternative "Patreons", but ultimately settled on this one, which is mainstream for many artists, so it should be less of a burden on users.)
I'm also planning to make my commissions more accessible soon using Ko-fi's cashier, but I might take a break for a while. (I'll still be focusing on my artwork, though.)
So, now that I've destroyed my major social media accounts, I'm planning to work on the backend and frontend for displaying my artwork. For now, I've temporarily put together a gallery using Immichi and cloudflare turnstiles, but I still feel like the UX is poor.
I'm sorry for the anxiety caused by my sudden disappearance. I've always been able to hang on thanks to your support. Thank you.

FA+

Yeah, this is the reason I only have a FA.
I think, combine FA + personal sites + self-hosted(Yunohost, or CasaOS(ZimaOS)) thing way of the F*** road tbh
I'm not joking, I really feel like social media is becoming useless due to the interpretation of algorithms.
It's not a playground, it's a cage.
