I have Mastodon, and I only know one artist on there. The majority of them are still on Twitter even though they hate it.

About 10 years ago, Angelo Sotira ($spyed) fired one of the other co-founders, Spot, and started pitting paying users against non-paying users. Free users had a marker on their profile saying “Needs Premium Membership.” The site also marked whether you were a paying or free user everywhere. Sound familiar?

They drew more controversy in 2018 when they hired this marketing firm to come up with a lackluster new logo everybody hated. Because, you know, it’s not like they had a bunch of artists using the site or anything.

Unfortunately, it’s still where the majority of the art community resides after the enshittification of deviantART. Fortunately, I have other ways of staying in touch with the “best of the best” among my artist friends now, but there are still many holdouts.

I was responding to all the people who said “just use a fake email,” bub…

Have you tried reading all the stuff below the email field?

I think the point of this post is all the stuff below the email field. Yikes.

Blows my mind how many conservatives think net neutrality is a bad thing just because the TV told them it’s bad.

None of them can even tell me what the hell net neutrality even is.

Spez said they’re not killing Old Reddit, but he also said they weren’t going to pull an Elon either.

Since deleting my account on July 2, I just don’t care enough about Reddit to create a burner account or download their app.

Wow. They want me to install the app to read this.
