Ughh this is super frustrating, it feels like you can’t go and stay anywhere anymore
I’m getting people saying “you’re a nazi” if you use Twitter, you “support AI” if you use Instagram/Threads/Facebook/ArtStation/DeviantArt
What are artists supposed to do?? Disappear & delete everything entirely??

I personally don't intend to do online business, therefore no guilt!
This is super frustrating being told you have leave everything behind because of some thing we can’t control ugh or else you’re a “supporter”
And nah I understand the struggle 😭
I wish a facebook alt would get made cause cosplayers mostly only use facebook or places like tiktok.
I have seen some AI artists on DevianArt but I can't say there are many.
No matter what platform you go, someone is going to use AI to make art.
I suppose you can create your own but who wants to do all that?
NewGrounds isn’t as lively as it used to be
Bluesky is incomplete and still has bugs to be fixed
Cara is also incomplete and very inactive
ToyHouse the mods literally abandoned the site
Like everything damn platform has been corrupted or has problems, it’s super frustrating being told you have to delete everything because someone screwed shit up 😭
i think people need to find ways to pressure most of them to improve things and change the awful parts of them (at least of the salvageable ones).
it's not a new thing since people in power have always found ways to control and own the masses but at some point, people will figure out how to break free.
The internet as a whole is turning to a dark place and it’s scary
I get having disdain for the platform itself, Musk and Twitter can both piss right the hell off but
Same thing with using Threads or IG being the same as being pro AI, hell I'm on Threads and anyone who knows me knows I'm almost religiously anti Gen AI.
Only thing we can do right now is what we feel is best and to keep on creating, to try and tune out the noise.
But I think as long as people are critical and actively denounce bigotry and hate, it shouldn't get someone labeled a nazi or an apologist for using them still.
And I see, I hope you find success on this platform after leaving Twitter and Facebook
Good luck to you too!
I have more followers on TT, It is easier to grow a community. I also have an idea on how the algorithm runs plus it’s easier to follow trends. I haven’t found that from other platforms yet since Twitter is twitter, I’m not using meta platforms and Bluesky is pretty confusing to me.
