Sorry I'm thinking about old webbed sites again, but I was just havin a conversation on Bluesky about how the way social media is set up to force artists to churn shit out so fast just to be seen that we don't even slow down enough to really look at what other people are making, and just...
I think the way deviantART was set up was way healthier. By DESIGN. What do I mean by this? Well, think about how things are now. Every major social media has a dashboard people scroll that is endless. That is the main way you encounter art, supposedly by people you follow. It depends honestly. On instagram that's a fuckin' rarity, but I digress.
You have a dashboard, and let's say you only have a little bit of time to look through it. When the time's up, you close the app or tab or what have you, and everything that you didn't see in your scroll now might as well be gone forever. You probably won't ever see it, unless the poster reblogs/reposts/bumps it in some way, during a different time of day when you're more likely to catch it. Algorithms that force constant posting for a boost are bad enough, but so is the fact that everything is missable.
Now take ol' deviantART. It's flooded with AI bullshit now, but BEFORE then, in the ancient times, it was a collection of galleries and real peoples' artwork with a functioning search. Let's say you find some artists you like, and follow them.
Instead of a dashboard to scroll, you could go into your watch list and BAM. There it was, a collection of EVERYTHING the artists you followed had posted since the last time you checked. All there for you to look at at your own leisure. The artist could post at whatever fuckin time they wanted, and they'd only have to post ONCE, and you could still have a chance to see it without having to go to their individual page.
If you wanted to find new artists, no problem! There was the front page with featured works, or recent works- there were sections people could post to based on type of art (traditional, digital, etc.) and if you liked any kind of fandom, you could search AND sort those searches by popular/recent! It required a little bit of agency to go look for other people in your niche, but it wasn't difficult by any means. And some of my best and longest lasting friendships were started on dA by me finding fanart I liked and commenting on it! Or by participating in community-ran events like OC tournaments!
Like, I know instant gratification is a tough thing to beat, but I think if we found some way to just slow back down a little, maybe communities could be a thing again... I dunno. Or maybe I'm just an old kook. Or maybe both! Who knows?
But yeah somethin' somethin' gallery sites are way healthier than twitter for artists.

middle aged future leo is like my aunt who drinks vodka tonics out of a bendy straw from a plastic dunkin donuts cup & wears those sequined sweatpants that say "LOVE" in hot pink across the ass and whenever it's past 3pm she says "Umm, I'll say it's about half past NO BRA O'CLOCK 😂😂😂!!! Am I right ladies? Mommy needs a MARGARITA🤣🤣🤣!! Cheers!!! 🥂 " but if there were like aliens slaughtering everyone she loves while saying this

I'm finally done! This took way longer than I wanted it to for such a simple color palette, but I'm happy with the turnout, although I couldn't decide which version to go with, so you all get both! d( > _・ )
Reference was loosely used but only really for the shapes of the bg and not for the character poses or anything.

Thought about drawing her for a while, finally got the perfect idea.
Even if the photo did him justice, she would still see a disappointment.
saw someone draw Bill with a Flip phone once and I loved it.
