This-Is-My-Legacy

Ah yes I can do that:D You didn't specify what kind of account you wanna start so imma just go with most generalized tips

First. Your attitude matters just as much as your skill or the quality of your posts. I prefer to think about it like I am hosting a party. People wouldn't want to join a party if the host keeps saying that their food is shitty and other parties are better and picking fights with people.

People pick up vibes very well. And send similar vibes back too. If you want to have kind and supportive party you need to be a kind and supportive host:

............

Second. Blocking is everything. Someone sends a rude comment - just block. Someone asks inappropriate things - block. Picking fights on the internet results in nothing but exhaustion. And you don't want to be exhausted by arguing with someone who preemptively hates you. You just want them gone👍

............

Third. People come in groups. Groups defied by interests. It is up to you to control what kind of group you will attract.

Example! There are fans of cooking. There are fans of animation. There are also fans of hating.

So if you post about animation then you will attract animation fans. And when they decide to stay they will want more animation from you. Logical yes?

Now please pay attention. If you post hateful content. It will attract people who love to hate. As a form of recreation.

And if you post critical content then you'll attract the people who love to criticize.

And when those people decide to stay - they will start hating and criticizing everything including you.

Which is fine is you also love to hate and criticize stuff. You can watch a hundred of "why [x] is actually trash" videos with your followers and then discuss them all day lol. Who am I to stop you. I just hope I explained the mechanic.

...............

Fourth. If you see someone bringing news - never trust them blindly without checking the source. Sometimes people are trolls, sometimes they're stupid, sometimes they're a victim of misinformation and sometimes they're kids who didn't learn to analyze text properly. If you take their info and talk about it then you will subject all your followers to the same stupid lie.

...............

Fifth. I don't recommend having a big popular account if you're younger than 17-18. I know it sounds stupid and improbable yeah haha. It's just. I had my first big blog and big comic project when I was 15 and I can tell it messed me up bad. Young teens are NOT mentally equipped to manage thousands of strangers online, young teens are NOT mentally prepared to face all the creeps and scams and conflicts that can happen. Young teens cannot tell if someone is their genuine friend or is it a fucking pedophile hiding behind pfp with Papirus fanart. If you're younger than 17 I highly suggest you find a nice group of people (like a discord server maybe) and share your art with them. Or find some other place that allows you to show your stuff without being a direct admin over other people. Believe me your mental health will be much better. I know that from experience, I was that popular teen.

...............

Sixth. I know all the stuff I listed looks a bit intimidating for someone who only starts posting but trust me. Most people are kind. Most people are kind and supportive and willing to hang out. If you bring them joy then they will bring you joy right back. If you help them and listen to them - they will help and listen to you. If you make your account a good party place, if you make it welcoming - it will invite the nicest strangers you will ever meet.
