SIGH i wish it easy to leave dA but this is my main source of income + i dont have an audience anywhere else, rebuilding from the ground up after so many years is just way too daunting but hopefully ill finish my toyhouse soon which has been equally daunting slight edit: also as it stands there are basically no social medias that are good, and dA has the most understanding art community in my eyes when you ignore the influx of new stupid ai shit... when i see the stupid comments my friends get on non-art based websites im like. Lol. Hell no
I am utterly disgusted with DeviantArt's pro ai stance, propping up blatant art laundering and bragging publicly about how much money they make ripping human artists off. Despite this, I am extremely hesitant to leave a community I've been a part of for so SO many years, especially since it's integral to my business to continue posting here. I have, however, started deleting items from my gallery for the first time ever. I wanted to warn followers in case you want to save anything, as this is my most extensive gallery online. In case you all are outta here, you can follow me here: Bluesky - https://bsky.app/profile/eskiworks.bsky.social Tumblr - https://eskiworks.tumblr.com/ FurAffinity - https://www.furaffinity.net/user/wolf-nymph/ Website (new and slowly building) - https://www.eskiworks.art/ If I do decide to deactivate my account, I will definitely give ya'll a heads up.
