Support the artists that decide to start over here and leave the ones that NEED the income people on that platform provide because bills doesn't pause 🤡.

I always encourage ppl to move to bsky but omfg I cannot imagine having the GALL to call someone a bad person for still having to rely on twt for income. WHAT??

I haven't made adopts in a bit cause I don't think they'd do as well here as they did on twt, but that's MY CHOICE. People are so mean!

Por desgracia todavía no hay suficiente público no artista/artesano/creadores aquí como para que podamos soltar el otro sitio y no podemos hacer nada, mientras la gente que nos comisiona siga allí es lo que hay 🥲

Sí... se nota mucho. Yo por suerte tengo un trabajo irl así que me puedo permitir tomarme un descanso y por lo tanto reconstruir mi público aquí, pero hay quien no puede... que rabia me da la gente enserio

There are some exceptions when it comes to things like these, but i believe that if you are a regular user, you shouldn't be on Twitter unless you support Elon and Fascism.

We are seeing history repeat itself, and i for one am not happy about it.

I personally don't spend time on the app anymore unless I'm talking to my clients and commissioners, unfortunately a vast majority of general public is unaware of Elon Musk and uses the app like nothing happened. I can't move until the general public does, so 🤷🏻‍♀️

Una idea para ir modificando eso sería que los artistas hicieran esto https://bsky.app/profile/almakrowan.bsky.social/post/3lhpqa35jic22

Está interesante sí, pero eso no va a hacer que el público general deje de usar Twitter. El público general no usa Twitter para ver arte, lo usa para compartir memes, poner posts con sus colegas etc, así que por mi parte no lo voy a implementar 🥲

FACTS!!! Not everyone wishes to make the move and it’s perfectly fair. While it’s became a shit site, I very much still Twitter because of the following, it’s where I get most of my commissions, and I come across funny memes occasionally.

supnovagy.bsky.social•14 days ago

Yup, I had an extreme follower kept telling me anyone using Twitter now is a “Nazi and Elon Musk supporter” and when I disagree with them, made a “call out” post against me for it

I explained the very thing you’re talking about in this post too, it’s not fair

supnovagy.bsky.social•14 days ago

They made a*

pauladraws.bsky.social•14 days ago

I already saw a couple posts of some artists saying the same and 🥲 I think no one is on Twitter just for the pleasure at this point (At least among artists) If the general public is still there, our clients are too, it's that easy 😪

supnovagy.bsky.social•14 days ago

Unfortunately so… we need more people using here over Twitter but majority won’t leave so ofc the clients are still there 😭

pauladraws.bsky.social•14 days ago

A big majority of people use twitter just to share stuff they like, cat photos, memes etc And many of them probably aren't unaware of what Elon Musk is doing too so...🤧

supnovagy.bsky.social•14 days ago

Yeah they probably don’t even know he even owns Twitter or maybe heard about him once but knows nothing… that’s the scary part about all this, majority don’t know at all

I got banned from Twitter anyway for no reason. 🤣 I had about 460 followers there, and it took me about 4 years to get to that many.

I have almost 700 followers on Threads, and it only took me about 2 years. I hate how Zuck is MAGA now, and that place is a war zone, but there’s still a lot of…

kagayaki-hime.bsky.social•14 days ago

…progressive leftists, neurodivergent folks, people who believe in children’s rights, a sizable LGBTQIA community, and a lot of gamers, artists, and cats! Sorry if I sound like I’m advertising. 😅

I know that Zuck is more transparent about accepting hate speech on Threads, but…

kagayaki-hime.bsky.social•14 days ago

…it’s fun to flood the place with our scientific facts and leftist ideologies now that he got rid of fact-checking. 🤣

And I appreciate the support that people are giving me, even though most of my followers aren’t interested in art or comics. 😅
