it's so fucking evil by the way how when you make art with the idea of sharing it online in mind you can't simply make art you gotta fucking.. take into consideration the dimensions so that the quality won't get eaten and the crop won't be awkward cuz for example if you make a full body drawing of a person standing then the image is too long, the head and the feet would get cropped out and your post will just look like a torso of a character and that's weird and no one will share it cuz it's weird so you have to think of a workaround for that, and if you're making a comic or like a multi part drawing then you have to think about how the images will be positioned in the post bc again if it looks awkward then no one will share it and might even overlook it entirely, you have to be thinking ahead in fucking thumbnails to make your art ~*presentable*~ and if you happen to post on multiple platforms with different posting rules and methods then you have to consider ALL of your options and might need to make adjustments according to every platform and it takes time out of your life, and also twatter hates colour red so if you're drawing something with red you just gotta accept that your drawing will look like a fucking mess on there regardless, and sometimes the final post just doesn't look good no matter what you try so you gotta accept that it will be a flop because it doesn't look pretty to the casual internet scrollers and swipers and it's all evil evil EVIL

i think in part how the programs present images has an impact. tumblr is heavily image based and thus allows them to be as big as any other post, while twitter often makes it a smaller thumbnail and (while fixed now) was infamous for terrible cropping. having bright colors draws attention and makes the user more likely to see it and click the art on twt, while it's less Required on tumblr. at least thats my theorizing
TRUE !!!
