"why are we LYING and saying THIS social media is better for art than that social media because OBVIOUSLY that social media is better and-"

shut up. the site that will be ""most useful"" for selling your work has nothing to do with the site itself and everything to do with 1. if the people you want to sell to are there (and, surprise, there are other users on literally every site) and 2. if you can tolerate using it enough to reach an audience.

implying signing up for different social media is the only way to succeed as an artist is just straight up stupid. you want people to find your work? try starting with remembering to sign your fuckin name on it

#tumblr is not better or worse than twitter or reddit or DeviantArt or whatever #theyre just the sites youve put more work into making a presence on #if you like to draw trains youd get clients on trainspotting forums but that doesnt mean the trainspotting forum is the only way to success #and i say this as the disabled artist who has had accounts on every major platform and relies on them for income #it doesnt matter. the platform itself doesnt matter. the company is not your friend. hope this helps #patch me through to palaven command
