I batted for DeviantART for so many years but it's impossible to do anymore. The whole site's an AI art cesspit and the fact that they introduced their own generator (a SD fork trained on DA images, I think) feels like admitting this is the new direction they want the site to go.

I'm not actually opposed to AI art, the part that bothers me is that on DeviantART, AI-generated artwork and handdrawn artwork aren't distinguished from one another, they show up alongside each other. On Pixiv, AI art is considered a different category and if you don't want to see it you can turn it off.
Also there are tons of people who blatantly post stuff made in MidJourney and go "haha hey I'm new here do you like my digitial painting, I did it in like an hour :3"
i literally just got back onto it since 2014 and things immediatly turned for the worst :( i also miss the old look
I agree, I like the old layout!
Same, I miss old dA so much. Or maybe just the old way of things? The constant demand for “new content” is so hostile to artists.
wasnt DA bought by the same company who owns WIX? thats what i heard when they switched the layout, at least.
