#how does the algorithm work

[michael-mika]

Someone please tell me how to use tumblr, I’ve had my account for three years and never figured out the algorithm and how it works, what to post and how to post it properly, and what in the world I should even post about (been dying to create a thread about papyrus and Flowey from undertale but I’m not sure how to ensure that it would be in the proper place)

As cameras becomes more normalized (Sarah Bernhardt encouraging it, grifters on the rise, young artists using it), I wanna express how I will never turn to it because it fundamentally bores me to my core. There is no reason for me to want to use cameras because I will never want to give up my autonomy in creating art. I never want to become reliant on an inhuman object for expression, least of all if that object is created and controlled by manufacturing companies. I paint not because I want a painting but because I love the process of painting. So even in a future where everyone’s accepted it, I’m never gonna sway on this.

if i have to explain to you that using a camera to take a picture is not the same as using generative ai to generate an image then you are a fucking moron.

One Arcade Gannon from memory

I enjoyed playing with the filters before deciding on just leaving this one blank. Anyway filler sketch because I don’t have anything else to post today and God forbid I go on instagram and actually try to post there.

One Arcade Gannon after looking at a picture of his model,

I always forget how much I like sketching headshots, anyway. Enjoy :]

While I do think there is a small problem with people not engaging with or sharing creative work/fan work on here (or other sites that don't run on algorithm like AO3), I don't think the answer is to be ridiculous about it either.

A much better way to address it is leading by example: reblog/share and add positive comments yourself! People will catch on that it's cool, that it's okay and they have nothing to be anxious about, and start doing it too.

Wagging fingers or complaining tends to do very little. Thankfully, people emulating those they admire is a powerful thing. You can simply model behavior you want to see and some people may start catching on.

But it won't get any better if you don't do your part too. So don't worry so much about others. Focus on what you're doing and how you engage with creative works and fandom. Be a positive force yourself and the rest will follow.

I really wanna make an instagram for my art stuff but I feel like starting a new account and getting likes is an impossible job 🫠 my current account is dead af and I don’t even feel like resurrecting it at all
