i hope this whole thing with the last update (being reversed for now) made people realize the importance of reblogs and comments specially when it comes to art
we're a community. we're meant to interact with each other, not just silently like a post and then immediately forget about it
support artists. tumblr is the last decent-ish site to post your art to and get reactions you can actually see but it is on the users to create (or bring back in this case) that comment culture
being an artist is so incredibly lonely lately between ai, people stealing your art and claiming it as theirs, insults and of course the people who could be nice but decide to remain silent leaving the artist with only rude people to block on the daily
at some point people will stop sharing their art entirely if things do not change. i know i'm very close to that point myself
comments take very little time to type specially as they can be as short as a single word! "nice" "pretty" "cute" "funny" is enough if you don't know what else to say. just be there for people
