Reading the dA article and man. I miss the hell out of old dA. I was really surprised by the commentary on how a lack of places to put resources pits hobbyists and popular artists against each other as competitors rather than artists in different stages of their art journey. That's so true...

it's very true ... and it sucks!! the only real place ive found for resources is tumblr, and that's a bit of a wildwest bc it's not an art centric place unlike dA :( it's a really good article though, i know i've talked abt it a few times in other places but it's a good reflection on how hard it is to capture that, and that artfight is the closest to a community that dA had

Its such a shame what happened to dA... Not only its filled with AI slop, but its also uhh corn AI slop, and even if you disable the mature content those still make their way to your feed. I spent a long without accessing my account and when i come back, it was like the hell gates were open right there!!! What happened to the community and all the real artists? The platform feels abandoned, it's bizarre

dropped dead like a fly, a lot of ppl fled after the UI overhaul (myself included, that's when i truly dropped the site as dead) but the true hammer rlly was their shitty gen AI being released. i still see some wonderful artists there but im like ... please ... idk how yall do it ...

I miss old dA aaa!! I pretty much learned how to draw there. I'm [relatively] active on Cara and I must say that I find the greatest sense of 'old da' out of all my social medias there. Like, people actually write well-thought-out comments. And I love that they have community events/challenges. Also I see plenty of anime-style art, maybe it's changed since you were on it! If you do try it out again, let me know...👀

mayhaps… i haven’t ever used instagram much to get used to the layout so it’s why im a lil unused to it… im also terrible and keeping up social energy on social medias in general 😭😭😭 if i do get brain power i may revive it even if just for posting

I second yogomagpie, I'm not really active on Cara anymore (art block) but the community was super cool. I even got to know amazing artists behind media i like, like one of the artists that worked on cuphead animations, it was a really nice experience!

really cool post about the organizational systems :] i've been curious about obsidian; a bestie of mine uses it for planning out OC designs...and I felt that notion pain. I used to use it a lot too but it gets so fiddly, and the AI integration...

raindrop is rlly good for non-daily bookmarks, it’s been nice to just have a cleaner place to keep those :] allowed me to gut some of my existing bookmarks off firefox LOL

honestly obsidian is rlly good too!! it’s also a slippery slope to not get too lost in the sauce of community extensions—but if u keep it simple and get acclimated to it an find urself hitting walls of things you need… then u can peep. but yeah for super bare bone information u can definitely do it in obsidian and they just recently added databases integrated in too to organize pages

honestly it’s not… Too Bad? obviously i need a bit of time to understand some stuff but the base premise of ‘do simpl events/games, get cards, trade cards, get points for trading cards to get more cards’ kinda makes sense so far

is this for Colors TCG? to me, DW is just a clunkier version of tumblr, but its has communities, which are journals modded and managed by multiple people. in the case of Colors, it's run like a forum: with posts/threads for games, deck releases, leveling, etc. i think once you know what you can reasonably ignore in DW, it's easy to navigate.

it was more in general, but it'd def help if i wanna get into colors TCG as well LOL
