"Bluesky isn't working for me"
Ok bud maybe don't post one thing once every month with no alt text and then never interact with anyone? Have you tried that yet?

Any image you post has an “alt” thumbnail attached to it.
Click it & there will be a field at the bottom which you can fill in.
It vacillates between slightly annoying & improv-level self entertaining once you’ve done a few, but it’s throughout helpful to others.
You very much get what you give here
It takes a bit to unlearn algorithmic social media but it WORKS
These are supposed to be spaces for people to share experiences, but they had all been turned into "American Idol" auditions
Actually gets under my skin lol
Especially as an artist, I cannot understand that one!
But for me the payoff is in talking to people mostly. Followers and such are just a nice byproduct 🤷🏻♀️
An ego trip?
I get reporters & bloggers promoting their posts, and the fear that your country is being controlled by fascists. I even get "an interesting hobby" but not this expectation bullshit.
Follows 7 people, never replies to anyone, doesn't follow any feeds
Yes Tumblr kind of has that way of "hiding" stuff so you don't feel bothersome but 99% of the time people will want to hear what you would traditionally put in tags, so just post it!
If they hate it they'll mute the thread or AT WORST block you.
You see an art, comment 1 nice thing about the art

I mean I’m no ball of sunshine but I don’t know if it’s the winter blues but I’ve had to mute some posts. It’s just sooo much complaining
Big ego bellyaches? I’ll pass - if I wanted that I’d go on TikTok lol
I keep forgetting it exists and I don’t think I can add the alt text after a post is made but curious to know why people are so adamant about it.
Accessibility -> Require alt text before posting ✔️
And it’s a nice place to explain symbolism or things within your work for clarity like if a character is from a certain place.
As evidenced by this reply!
I just feel I come off as totally unhinged half of the times ahhahaha
To find people to follow, look at feeds and starter packs, look at art share threads. Comment on posts you like.
It’s like real life! If you sit in the corner looking grumpy and don’t talk to anyone, nobody will come to you!
