I think a lot of people don’t realize how much it helps to hear nice comments on work you post.
also a lot of people don’t seem to understand that making weird offhand jokes to someone you don’t know on their work really comes off like you’re just an asshole lol

I don't know what it is about the last few years. But there's just generally less engagement around art in general.
I remember way back when on deviantart, you'd get tons of engagement. Weird as that place went, there was a point where it was like the foundation of art communities.
