I decided to stop uploading or using FA in general, as a protest to Dragoneer's continued general mismanagement of the site, and to appeal to a moral greater good in the face of the moderation he employed.

Nazis, zoophiles, pedos.... The types of people he'd typically put into his (albeit unpaid) employ.

I've been trying to push personal websites where possible, mailing lists, and a social media presence in some form. I believed (still do) many artists (of different vocations) have had their relationships with art ruined by trying to appeal to algorithms, memes, to times of day.

I feel like creating art at all is already difficult enough... Being a PR manager, accountant, and representative for your Art Brand, in addition to knowing you have to be producing constantly seems a recipe for not wanting to have anything to do with it anymore! We live in a society etc.

I cannot deny having a "centralized" public gallery is in general a good idea, however. I was never really the type to get lots of commissions (nor make much art lol) but I have a few things I'd be down to post, if there's any lingering interest. Lemme know!

Post-rant rant: I'm no longer pushing Twitter, and drama surrounding its own mismanagement has become really annoying to me. Use mastodon or some other fediverse thing, find yourself a community. Be a gremlin with other gremlins Grrr

I still have a discord server, it is still very small because I'm basically a nobody in comparison to many others with servers:
