So.
On 12/6/22 my main tumblr account of over a decade, my favorite place to hang out on the internet, @avalonlights, was mistakenly terminated out of nowhere. I can only assume that the anti AI art post I had just reblogged, angrily tagging āf*ck AI art for realā was the cause, getting me accidentally marked as a spam account. The irony of that is pretty heartbreaking. There was no warning, and despite trying to contact @staff, Iāve had no recourse. Mainly what makes me sad is I have no backup of everyone I was following, and all the nice tags people had left on my work over the years are just gone. Iām going to keep trying to get my account restored, but in the meantime, Iāll be here on this repurposed secondary account still posting my art, and Iād love to reconnect. š
Tumblr finally restored my main account after over a week in the void! I completely thought it was gone forever and was so devastated Iāve barely been on. Thank you so much to everyone who reached out and was so nice. It means so much to know you guys had my back regardless of blue hellsite shenanigans. I wouldnāt have been up to keep trying to get my account back without your encouragement and kind words. Iām gonna leave this backup account (avalonlightss) up as is, in case something similar happens again, now that I know how easy it is to just have your whole account up and vanish! If it happens again (please no) at least thereāll be a place to find me! ;__;
But for now: Iām back at @avalonlightsā YAY!!!!!!!!!!!! ššššššš
