#reposting problems

But it frustrates me so much that with all the dumb stuff about Twitter and its renaming and rebranding to "X"; that retweeting is now called “reposting."

Because reposting already has a very specific and negative meaning to it; particularly in the online art world. I just...

It’s so stupid and needlessly harmful.

And I honestly don’t know if thinking this is a genuine and willful attempt to harm artists or online creators or maybe an attempt at creating more disinformation and confusion is giving Musk way too much credit or if it’s simply just ignorance combined with arrogance and impulsivity unintentionally causing harm that Musk and others simply didn’t think about.

Because why would they? When have they ever thought about the harm they might be doing in their entire lives?

Any other sites, no reposts allowed

Note that I never ask people to follow me anywhere, my twitter can get spammy and I don’t want anyone to think it’ll be art every hour. That’s why I try hard to keep my tumblr from having too many reblogs.

I need this to be taken seriously, if you feel that ereri has quieted down now, reposting fanworks will not help the fandom (especially, for more hardboiled reposters,

being rude to the artists

). Artists are here for fun, same as writers, or edit makers, if they’re not getting the feedback they need to go on, they will move on to another fandom, which is (let’s face it) more alive, less drama and more friendly to them
