#deviantart is dead

I will leave DeviantArt by the end of the year. I will not post anything new on that platform anymore, and i will eventually delete all my art from there, except for a picture which tells people to follow me on Twitter and Tumblr instead.

DeviantArt is not a good platform at all. It used to be, but not anymore. Not by a long shot. The platform is a cesspool of fetish art, stolen art, and now the home page is spammed with disgusting filthy AI generated images. The algorithm is awful, the search feature is awful, and people don’t use tags, so it’s not possible to block weird fetishes or AI images. The Eclipse update ruined the website so much, and the call between DeviantArt and RJ Palmer was horrible. DeviantArt created their own AI image generator named DreamUp, which is awful. The owners, Wix, don’t care about art one bit. The moment Wix bought DeviantArt, they ruined the website one step at a time.

And the funny thing is.... DeviantArt is not really needed anymore, when you think about it. It’s a relic from the past, rotten and moldy after the owners stopped caring for it. If they had listened to the users, reverted the Eclipse update, brought back the old website, and never allowed AI generated images on their platform.... had they done that, they would still be relevant in this day and age. Sadly, the owners have already stated that they don’t want the old site back, they support AI, and that they don’t care about art theft.

Before the AI scandal, i was already considering leaving. First it was because of all the gross weird fetish art, but then i decided to ignore them and stay. After that, it was the AI images spammed everywhere, but i thought maybe DeviantArt would ban that stuff, so i stayed. And then they decided to not just allow it; but also support it. And the conversation with RJ Palmer was the icing on this awful cake of betrayal.... so now i will leave DeviantArt. I managed to reach 500 watchers.... but that’s ok, because i reached 500 followers on Twitter too.

I wanted to post this earlier but my internet provider said “nope, you cannot”. But here it is finally. I like the way I shaded the hair (if you’re on a phone you can zoom in to see more clearly). In rest I think it’s ok, even if she looks a little bit squeezed.
