Instagram used to be my go to when posting art, I remember scrolling on there more than on Twitter
But then almost every site started to go downhill around 2022

That’s because you had an established following before Bluesky. (And probably the people you know too. But that’s my assumption)
But I digress

Yeah, ever since 2020 I felt “Wasted”
I don't want to spend hours to days (maybe even weeks) on an art piece and post it just for it to get ignored for the umpteenth time
It's demotivating

You say “BlueSky is still new” and yet I see people glaze it with “Engagement is BETTER on here” ever since BlueSky stopped being invite only
IDK about you but that sounds/feels a bit misleading

People tell you that you shouldn't worry about numbers… but to make Art your JOB you must have a following, which has numbers 🫤
It's kind of why I draw offline and posted nothing since 2022

Can you blame them?
The BlueSky experience is literally this, hence why they eventually stop being active here

This legit sounds like a paradox
Especially since it's heavily expressed that “BlueSky is the best place to grow”

Not to be rude but
How do you have 500 followers yet your engagement is “awful”?

When someone says “Bluesky is boring” y’all (I’m using “y'all” loosely) automatically think they WANT toxicity like Twitter
It's good to have a positive site for once but BlueSky is boring because it still feels like you’re talking to a wall

Except that’s NOT fair, LOL
“Its easy to get engagements on Bluesky”
It’s easy because y’all had a following from other sites already… I’d agree with that statement if that was true and not have some biased vibe to it…
I do try to hold on to a tiny bit of faith though

The people who glaze this site already have a following hence why they have interactions
