Is it over now?Am I too late to start building a fanbase on X?
>>7768891So why were these two shadowbanned?
>>7768891>Crying about their quarter mill of followersChrist these people are entitled. Are they even doing anything that requires loads of followers, like a youtuber, or are they this obsessed purely because of the dopamine?They have a stadium of people following and possibly looking at their art, and they're crying over that number not growing - or growing as fast as they'd like.
>>7768900Don't know.5 digits likes don't scream a shadowban to me.
>>7768900nsfw is "shadowban" but it has always been that way, so idk what they are talking about.if you do NSFW you better be good because retweet is all the push you get
When I see posts like this on x, I think they're designed to break the monotony of their posting pattern and drum up some interaction. Dramatised way of saying "Follow me" without coming off like a social media goblin.Imagine 258k saying they're gonna restart and 658k saying account is done.
>>7768909This is just boring.
>>7768909compared to their followers>20% engagement rate>80% viewsseems fine to me but it's probably this >>7768916I mean, remove the bots, the scrapers and the minors then they'll maybe left with 30% of their current follower base.That only a minority actively engages, is normal, but those who engage usually also engage with other nsfw stuff as well.Shadowbans means not even your post will reach your followers instead of the meme>uhm akshually shadowban is when you don't trendlike, they're clearly trending but not being showed to other algorithmic bubblesthats not a shadowban
You are going to be ok as long as you are above average and know how to show yourself to other artist and also know where to post your stuff, twitter is not the only place you should post, use discord, bluesky, rule34, newgrounds i think allows nsfw, if you animate and like doing sfw stuff from time to time also use youtube tik tok for your sfw stuff... the thing is that you have to post everywhere with your twitter account linked to it, maybe add a watermark so when people repost it they know where to find you.
>crying about decreasing/disappearing followersX staff started making an effort to combat indian and arab bots recently.
>>7768900Various reasons, some say nsfw, but i have an alt account that does just fine.My main one is shadowbanned though. Its likely because i did some spring cleaning. I deleted a lot of post to start over, but also got into the habit of posting and deleting.m I was regretting getting invovled and pulled in poltical spats. Had to keep telling myself, im here to draw. Either way, they flagged my account as bot activity. So avoid bot like behavior.
>>7768965prove your human
yes so give up now. If you literally live and die by follower count, you deserve to fail.
You need to stop believing social media will lift you out of your misery by giving you numbers that have no value.It will only make it worse.
>>7768909>generic coom shit fartistsI sleep
>>7768966Beep boop beep. Greetings, im a alive. Here is a picture of a street light.
>>7768909Holy fuck that is unbelievably generic trash
>>7768891Quite a lot of people haven't been getting followers for about half a year. Personally, my posts do well within my followers, but hardly ever reach anyone outside that. I think the For You distribution got fucked sometime in there. Mine tends to only serve people I already follow. Kind of like how Youtube now only recommends 90% videos you've already watched. Bsky is still slowly growing fine, but that site is tiny. Social media is fucked.
>>7768909On the one hand, it's forgettableOn the other hand, it's a sexy short-haired girl in a scandalous "maid" costume with big tetasI'm very conflicted guys
what the fuck do they expect would happen. i'm just gonna guess theyre drawing the same generic trash for a while, stuck in a loop without furthering their craft
i talked to an artist about potentially starting X and he said it's the only place he gets commissions from. if you want to start then start instead of wallowing about two randos.
So what's the average view count for you fags anyway. I'm happy to get at least 100 when shilling something but to see somebody complain from supposedly getting a quarter million views is making me believe in the empty internet theory. Where is everyone?
>>7769265spread out in their own little camps
>>7769265Around 80 or so with 200 followeds, sometimes it's 200 but usually 50.My output is garbage but still, I feel like I'm getting fucked somewhat, I could probably bump it to 400 with basic SEO and social engineering tricks if I cared more.
>>7768891Why do you even want a fanbase on X? That site is filled with faggot tier people.
>>7769265it's kinda random, most of the time a few hundred views, sometimes 10K or morea better metric might be the like to view ratio: if it's 1:10 or more, the piece had some appealthis is posting sfw fanart, with ~200 followers
>>7769387Jace is unironically chuddier than most of /ic/. It's a little bit impressive, really.
>>7769397True, I remember arguing with that shithead about something political and I don't even like trump. Also 9/10 his heads do not match his bodies because he doesn't understand how to draw faces and the sacrifices you make when you give every chick anime bug eyes. Gives a real creepy feeling to his work.
>>7769387>Why do you even want a fanbase on X?I was thinking of using X for marketing.I make hentai doujin, sell it on DLsite, and would like to use Xitter for promotion.But if every artist is getting shadowbanned anyway, maybe it isn't the best idea.
>>7768909>artist who draws ginormous boulder tits shamelessly plugs their patreon account into every public postchecks out
>>7769265It is funny one my AI slop account I usually get 4x times more views than on my normal one. I just think a lot of people are turning into AI for their coom
>>7768891>bio in japanese>tweeting in englishPick a lane for fuck's sake.
>>7769632how else will the coomers know that they're a real genuine loser weeaboo? the generic anime porn they draw?
>>7769387>actually talking about /ic/ and 4chan outside of 4chan>complains about politics>doesn't realize he's part of the single digit retards ruining this siteWho the fuck is even this guy?
>>7769632the japs themselves can't go one jpop song without using random english words, wdym?
>>7769265like 10, and I bet most of em are bots. it's so jover fr me
>>7769479What's wrong with mentioning your patreon/fanbox/etc.? If you do it in a reply 99% of people won't see it.
>>7769844people use social media as a glorified advertisement board for their paywalled content. no one uses twitter or tumbler or furaffinity as a platform in itself. gotta sheckelmaxx it.
>>7768909looks like generic ai garbage
>>7770445looks like you have low cognitive resolution
>>7770450>resolutionI have 4k monitor.
>>7768909>bottom of the barrel porn slop>half a million followers aren't enoughFucking dreadful. Sometimes I wonder if artists really are any better than AI Pajeets.
>>7770463fuck artists, can't wait for AI
>>7770472indian incel loser
>>7770474ready or not the future is coming old man
>>7770487u think yer btter than me yeh little cocksuckAR
>>7770472What do you mean? AI is already here lol. I bet there's already plenty of AI 'artists' that act just like artists too
>>7770507There's a company that sell AI art, I forgot the name of the brand, but my retail store selling it, animals doing quirky human things, its really disgusting, they're being bought, it requires little to no effort. Someone should make a device that makes your own AI and frames it. they need to be eliminated for laziness.
>>7770519literally this but no rug, and less fat.
>>7769265My biggest number was 2 million but i deleted the whole account twice.
>>7769707Former sims concept artist, turned schizo or were always autistic. Chime in on this thread. Apparently he had expose himself before ,hence why people recognize him. https://warosu.org/ic/thread/7393646#p7395257You can find his personal information by just googling his name. He thought it was a smart idea to disregard his anonymity to BTFO random anons. He shared some personal history too. Imagine risking your professional life to prove yourself to some anons. Like some in the thread pointed out, his behavior might make him the target of mass trolling.
>>7768891Who the fuck pays for these artists patreons? Their content is so basic I can't imagine some maxxed out perma coomer that pays for their porn to be able to get even close to getting off to their stuff. Or is it some version of pay pigging that they get off to donating to shitty artists? Hundreds of thousands of followers with their mediocre art and they complain. Literally interchangable with AI with how they can't do anything but control net poses and the porn acting tier on the nose captions like "Don't stare too long" "Oh we can almost see it :blushing emoji:" WOW WE CAN ALMOST SEE IT OMG YOU GET IT WE CAN SEE THE THING THAT'S IT I'M COOOMINGGGGG fml
>>7770872Man, i remember seeing that thread now and ignoring it.What an absolute cancer of a thread.>He thought it was a smart idea to disregard his anonymity to BTFO random anonsProbably thought that by "owning" the racist 4channers albinos from /pol/ would give him epic internet status or some cringey shit like effeminate faggots and trannies believe.Going by his public work on artstation he also seems to be a one trick pony.People like that really are the embodiment of the guy who drinks his own piss trying to argue you on rocket engines.
>>7770900not understanding people have different tastes and levels of disposable income is a worrying sign of low CR
>>7770872not only is he a braindead coomer who acts like a replyguy under the most average twitter broads trying to get attention, he's got that telepurte "Erm I make drawings with MEANING and DEEP LORE" behaviour that's just pathetic really it's kind of sad
>>7770911Hey have you tried animating jiggly breasts everyday before? That takes a toll on your mind
>>7770900go to kemono, you have to pay to leak porn patreons and that site is 90% porn patreons
>>7768891Sexy girls are BORING! Draw sexy boys instead and get some taste.
>>7769160All I see are lefty politics on Bluesky.
>>7771620The Discover tab is worthless, it mostly serves politics and people talking about twitter regardless of what you post/like.
>>7768891>social media has rhyme or reason https://www.brighteon.com/bb7ea29e-8409-4cc5-b098-501c43587a31
>>7771635what the fuck is that? did i just click on an ip grabber?
