Not the message I wanted to break my long silence with, but here we are.
I have pretty much stopped using this site ever since it decided to side with Ai artists. Watched as the trending page became in large part computer generated content, but held off on actually leaving in the vague hope that maybe things would improve eventually.
And now staff is openly boasting on how much AI "sellers" make on this platform. "Sellers" not "artists". A pretty clear message on who they want their user base to be.
I'm merely a hobbyist who was happy to have a place to share what little I could make, but it has become glaringly obvious that this is no longer the right platform for people like me. My gallery will still be here for what it's worth, but I will no longer upload anything here nor will I be active in other ways.
Thank you for the fun years, but this is the end.

I will be out of town for the next few weeks, starting tomorrow. That's why Im closing commissions for the foreseeable future.
