>>7411430
Bluesky's notification system kind of sucks ass compared to twitter's, they don't group things nearly as well so some notifications get completely buried in a pile of shit. Sucks to see a comment days later because it got buried under one guy liking/reposting 20 different drawings so you get 40 notifications.

1. just set your feed to who you're following, not that "for you" crap that every social media site pushes these days
2. even if you prefer the "for you" page you can click "show me fewer posts like this" or whatever
>>7415724
OK and...? Where did I say that was good or that I agreed with that? That's like me saying "curious... you hate echo chambers and yet you post on a site with /pol/ on it" like who gives a fuck, retard

It's rather ridiculous when the entire reason BS exists is because you couldn't handle people disagreeing with you so you had to flee to somewhere that bans people for disagreeing with you.

I honestly wish that we didn't have to use social media at all. I want a gallery that doesn't allow likes or comments. Just pictures the artist posts asking with their shop and commission information. Maybe a small bulletin board for news is they have a book coming out soon or guy a show greenlit or something. The second you allow interaction you get NEET busybodies who conjure up reasons to hate people and things because otherwise their lives would be void. Anyone from a small town is familiar with this: "lives of drama" personality.

as far as i know, they left because they disliked the policies on twitter and how it was getting worse every day, i personally think every mainstream site is bad in its own way

This is what annoys me. My twitter feed I actually see no politics. Bluesky, I see it all the time from people saying "glad Elon hasn't ruined this platform, huh?" over and over and over again.
Not to mention, majority of users have already stopped using bluesky. Really shows how this people just have no backbone.

>>7418752
I just continue posting to both. The only way new places make it is if people use them, if you want to see it successful, just use it.

After blocking 400 accounts, my discover feed is mostly politics free?
The problem is that it's now mostly nature photography, which I'm fairly ambivalent towards.
Pretty sure the site is mostly bots, though what isn't these days.

>>7411713
I only ever saw political posts when someone posts/liked/retweeted political posts. Most of the time it's just memes, porn or artwork. Thank god BS took the unhinged people away.

>>7419310
But seriously we can't let that guy get his hands on the nuclear codes!

>>7411456
It's currently structed in a way that's like a better parts of DA and most of the bad parts of Twitter removed. But I wish it had that media tab update Twitter had, that's what needs to be the default look for wanting to just look at all of the artist's art and nothing else.

But yes, why have most people not fucked off yet? Politics have completely shatted up the site and the only reason I think people are persisting is because wanting to see right wing/Elon/Trump blowing themselves up is baiting people in.

>>7411580
To fit in.
If the overlords and AI can think for them, it's good enough for them.

>>7420368
I think Elon is a retarded but he's right twitter is the only platform that allows free speech. Free speech means loli btw.

I don't even like loli but some of the artists I follow post it sometimes so they wouldn't be on bluesky. BS is DoA for me.

>>7420407
>is the only platform that allows free speech.
This shouldn't be needed on a site about art. That's the problem, a good place needs gatekeeping to keep evil fucks in their place. That's why 4chan was created itself, to allow the normie fucks to stay in their Myspace/Facebook safespaces so 4chan can allow the controversial shit to thrive in peace
This "everyone's invited" shit is retarded and Elon should kill himself. People need to be segregated to be happy. That's how it's always been since the ape leaving the tree.

>>7420407
porn is not free speech

>>7420410
I want to gatekeep everything that isn't anime out of the platform.
>>7420411
Then I don't want free speech.

>>7420407
>Free speech means loli btw.
what kind of retarded shit is this?

>>7420407
They don't allow loli? That's gay.
>>7420411
>>7420479
Yeah, it is. I'm not into loli, I don't draw it, I don't seek it out, but I consider loli the canary in the coalmine for censorship. Well, loli and ethnic slurs.

>>7420479
>First they came for the lolis, and I didn't speak out because I was not a lolicon.

>>7420479
It's essentially the canary in the coalmine for determining if the staff of the website believe they have the obligation and right to censor material that does not comform to socially acceptable moral standards, which are quite draconian in this day and age.

Websites that allow lolikon material will guarantee your right to free expression and right to discuss unorthodox or offensive ideas. If lolikon makes you uncomfortable then it's a price you'll have to pay for freedom of expression. I don't like lolikon and I find it in poor taste but I don't want to expurgate it because of what it represents.

NTA but half my feed are political posts and related to the US, and I'm french.

At least the other half is the stuff I want, but it's crazy how there's no way to hide that garbage.

>>7420479
>>7420498
Freedom of speech /= Freedom of consequence
Do anything people hate and they will kill you for it. No exceptions. That's reality. Either own it and live in danger of it, or play it safe and sacrifice your own "happiness" for others. Your choice. That's why I'm glad I'm not controversial enough to concern my way of living.

Based, destroyed him.

Ignoring all the bitching and moaning and /pol/itcal retardation how would one even begin to start fresh on yet another site?? I've been around for quite a while so I have no clue on how to 'catch up' with posting art
Hell I don't think I want to at this point; I don't care about following people anymore when I just bookmark them and check on their pages throughout the day and already have enough websites under my belt. Maybe time will tell but I think I'll coast this out for now.

So... has anyone figured out how to bypass Bluesky's quality compression yet? Im not moving otherwise.

>>7423392
Isn't every social media platform doing that? Why do care so much about it? Most of the userbase is on a 1600 x 720 smartphone.

>>7423396
>Isn't every social media platform doing that?
You can bypass Twitter's, that's why I have no issues with it.
>Why do care so much about it?
I work on small canvases and quality compression absolutely destroys me because of it, wouldn't have issues if it wasn't so noticeable.
>just work on bigger-
No, it's uncomfortable, resource-consuming and slows me down in general.

>>7423451
I don't get why fags like that are so entitled. Do something that people won't like you WILL get punished/face the consequences for it. It's like trashing on the cartel or snitching on them, doing so WILL just get you killed in horrible ways and they will leak/post it, so it would "persuade" others from not doing those same actions. It's just how the real world works. Don't want to get punished/face consequences? mind your own business or be quiet.

cant believe i got excited, it just looks like a twitter clone, are modern artist so brain broken they cant think of an artist website that dose'nt look like twitter

>>7423671
Sadly, no. The days of Tumblr are dead and DA killed itself becoming pro AI before becoming known as a diaper fetish site.

>>7423671
cara ultimately failed because it was an art site for artist by artist that was only somewhat helpful for already established artists to circlejerk amongst each other

artist need to expose their work to the general audience, and the general audience doesn't go on art sites.
Alternatively, an artist whole modus operandi is to try and get lesser skilled artist to give them money to teach them how to draw.

most people think it takes copying an already established platform but change its flavor to something niche to reach the same success.

So do artists actually post here or did they all return to twitter after saying they "are leaving".

>>7413881
Its placebo smokescreening.

>>7426383
I post there and even though I have a quarter of the followers I do on Twitter I get 10x the engagement. Being able to label your art as artistic nudity and not get instantly shadowbanned makes it so much better than shitter. I'll get 50 likes on it while I get 500 on bluesky.

My art isn't porn, I just really like the female form. The poses aren't suggestive, provocative, or with extremely exaggerated proportions like coomer artists do. And no bodily fluids either. Bluesky still likes to autotag my work as explicit when it's not, like at all. I don't know why they give you the label options if they are just going to auto flag it as pornography anyways. I always appeal the moderation and the tag gets removed in a day or so. I just put "this is artistic nudity and not sexual or explicit in any way" when I appeal.

that site is on borrowed time, they have no source of revenue to speak of.

>>7429550
That's cara though, though I haven't posted on bluesky or any social media for a while now, bluesky has actual ads and funding. Cara on the other hand doesn't and relays on crowd funding, the creator was even struggling to pay for the servers.

>>7426324
I think that anon is trying to say is that there was and still is this very toxic subset of Tumblr where people use social issues to get attention, clout and money by pretending to care and making merchandise of any said cause

>>7429561
>bluesky has actual ads and funding
not nearly enough to meet operational costs. borrowed time, mr shill

>>7429578

curious to know your source. I'm sure you definitely know the operational costs for their website as well as the income they get from ads and aren't just saying stupid shit for no reason.

>>7429665
listen, I know the election was a hard blow and you go the "hate tesla man" update not so long ago but deluding yourself into thinking that platform has any future besides being an echo chamber isn't healthy...

I voted for trump and am significantly further right than you can ever hope to be.

>>7429759
>I voted for trump and am significantly further right
You voted for a literal rapist, racist, misogynist, convicted felon that has never earned anything in his entire life. He claims to have an iq of over 150 yes he refuses to take an IQ test and has threatened to sue his school if they ever released his SAT scores because he knows he's a fucking retard that doesn't understand basic economics. Giving tax breaks for the rich and adding tariffs is going to tank the economy worse than he did in 2016. This is the person you chose to represent you as an american and you're fucking proud of it. You're the reason why people make fun of americans. You're literally retarded.

At least trump won't be able to say as much stupid shit as last time because he has musks dick so deep down his threat he won't be able to speak. I also like how you voted for trump because he's a racist like you are but he's going to increase indian immigration and give the jews more money than kamala ever would have. The funny thing is she's part indian and married to a jew and she still doesn't suck jewish dick as much as trump does. You fucking cucked yourself you /pol/tard midwit.

Twitter is perfect for faggots like you. Bluesky has actual artists on it, which is why you should stay clear of the site. You'll just shit it up.

I went there to post art stuff, but it's just Twitter 2.0

>>7411430

>>7432353
I "fixed" my BS feed by exclusively following artists and liking a lot of art instead of blocking and hiding like I'd usually do on Twitter.

Only half of them left because we are split between those that follow artists for artists and the others need normies for engagement to power their patrons to eat their McDonalds.

Honestly, it's going to crash at some point because they either have to accept the racists from Facebook, here and Twitter are going to be too much to handle, or Tiktok nazis are going to completely flood the site next week and completely make posting there by Assocation problematic period. I cannot wait for the chaos to ensue. People will learn not to seek attention from anyone, and they need to gatekeep themselves to others that want their content and not for clout.

You've never contributed to society at all, just stay on /pol/ and stop shitting up the rest of the boards. It's called the containment board for a reason. You came here in 2016 and I'm sure your art hasn't improved at all. You're a waste of space and air.

And you're a samefag. I didn't vote for a convicted felon that treats women like objects. Theres a list of corrupted shit Trump has done and your dumbass brain can't process any of it. You seriously think tariffs and tax breaks for billionaires is a brilliant plan. Assuming you thought at all which is highly doubtful. For you to be so fucking retarded and saying other people are mind broken is poetic.

Even clicking on /pol/ should give retards a global ban. If you ever visited that place you're a guaranteed moron and incel.

Why does every billionaire sans one vote blue?

>>7434868
You can literally just Google it and get a list off Forbes which billionaires voted for Trump. The list of known billionaires vote more red than blue, shocking. But this doesn't fit your world view so you'll just deny it and remain a fucking retard.

Can you guys shut the fuck up? Politics has literally nothing to do with anything you brain rotted retards.
