We can only hope! I’m so over Twitter. All I see over there is terrible opinions, rage bait and fight videos. No matter how many people I mute, or block. Twitter just needs to be left behind.

Loads of what can be fake twitter engagement is worth less than less engagement but from more real people.

This site has to get bigger thanks to people like you (in a good way bc you are cool) 1 example Toby fox he made Undertale and deltarune (deltarune tomorrow lol) which chapters 3 and 4 (I think he said this) will be out on April 17th or 18th I don't remember anyways yeah.

So using the Nazi site is okay for a certain amount of money?

shadowlight64.bsky.social•13 days ago

I understand do what you got to do for your income no one should hold that against you

electrothewolf.bsky.social•4 days ago

Shep, listen the engagement here is way more active and positive instead of twitter, trust me :3

I'd just like to point out that the majority of engagement on social media is not authentic, but there are far more bots over there than here so numbers are always an illusion and correlation is not causation. Also, there is someone else who profits way more from the engagement of your posts. 🤷

So you admit money is more important than principles for you. Thanks for sharing.

Genuine question here: Would posting here in addition to Twitter not build your following here in the meantime?

doge2290.bsky.social•14 days ago

I've been wondering why I only saw your new posts on Twitter, since the other artists I follow on both site have been posting on both.

sheppybleppy.bsky.social•14 days ago

I do post here in addition! I just only my comics rights now

tokky.gay•14 days ago

It probably seems smaller because there's no algorithm boosting posts; you do have to do more work here to get your art out to people, but after a while I started to actually get more engagement with my art on here than I ever did on twitter; following @furryli.st and using the hashtags does help

apollothespacefox.bsky.social•14 days ago

I think Twitter really lies about their numbers. But I'm sure you're correct that your actual audience there is still much bigger than the audience here.

enderwerewolf.bsky.social•14 days ago

In the future, I can see it

thebigjayagenda.bsky.social•14 days ago

I took a long break from here because it was such a tiny audience

By the time I’d returned, invite-only was gone (sad) and luckily, I started getting some stuff and meeting neat folk

I do hope the app gets bigger

Engagement here is 100x times better when following and interacting with others

salthethird.bsky.social•14 days ago

I’m sure it will. With Twitter being run by an incompetent moron like Elon Musk, I won’t be surprised if they decide to pull the plug on it

sheppybleppy.bsky.social•14 days ago

I doubt he’s willing to pull the plug on his propaganda machine, best case scenario he steps down so that artists can still use the site to bring in business

salthethird.bsky.social•14 days ago

TBH, I would rather that

bananaevolution.bsky.social•14 days ago

just wait till they add media sharing over dms

I WILL COMMISSION

x-0wolf.bsky.social•14 days ago

I moved here wholesale because the vibes are way better, everyone seems way more chill, twitter always left me feeling anxious like nothing i was doing made any difference.

Might be small now but quality over quantity and all that!

raymondturing.bsky.social•14 days ago

Have you gotten on FurryList? That might help increase your reach here a little bit

trixobat.bsky.social•14 days ago

Plus not to mention the missing feature of sending pics in dms here is still due to be added for commission's sake

sheppybleppy.bsky.social•14 days ago

Yeah I don’t want to give out my personal discord and telegram just to do commissions :(

sadurowolf.bsky.social•13 days ago

Yeah, better to shift the tide from mere engagement to loyal customers.

sadurowolf.bsky.social•13 days ago

And you can encourage your viewers to use this app more than X.

lemonbadger.bsky.social•13 days ago

it honestly sucks how 2 big platforms that are great places for artists are owned by 2 unsavory people

pedrojustpedro.bsky.social•14 days ago

I'm really sure it will.
