idk so hard these days to gauge how public I want to be; so much of my social life is online & at least some of my income depends on being seen on here, on IG etc. part of me wants to just share everything I do for free somewhere otoh part of me wants to hide it all in a box or like
only do fancy small press print books & behind-the-scenes animation stuff. idk existing & doing things rn feels unethical regardless. either feeding the machine or gatekeeping myself
no it's OK I noticed you on my own accord; I'm just scrolling around here too sleepy to leave the computer & go to bed. also can never keep track of who I'm following where ha ha
When in crisis (as in: overwhelmed, unsure, the world is too much of a mess) taking a break from online presence is great; you can always come back sharing later
I think the more private you make your life on social media, the more satisfied you become with it. I don't know if that makes me hypocritical, though, because I love engaging with creators who post publicly, but I myself like to keep as much of my life as possible private.
my 2cents, if u dnt want to be too public with your art/feed AI data i think Patreon is a great way to post, you have paywall as a gatewall. one of the biggest heartbreaks of all with AI for me is lots of my FAV artist, some of them panicked and deleted everything, so i cant see their work anymore.
so currently i religiously saved artwork from my fav artist that i think theyre going to delete everything any day now so i can look back at them from time to time ( shh i wont tell u wether your on the list or not ;)
