    Twitter has a "regurgitate this art with AI button".

    Maybe… maybe the remaining artists will come over now…

    Hey Twitter refugees. If you're an Original Character artist/writer/game dev/etc, consider tagging your stuff with #OCsky so the OC enjoyers on here can find your stuff.

    I also have some OC feeds (feeds are like custom algorithms and topical timelines) on my profile, in the feeds tab.

    Man the thing about Ko-Fi and Patreon and stuff is like, for the price of a gacha pull per month, you can be part of the reason why someone you believe in gets to pursue what they actually want to do.

    Through the power of many you can help ppl you like chase their dreams for a gacha pull per month.

    OK if Twitter and IG brainwashed you into thinking hashtags are ugly,

    You can use DECK.BLUE to put HIDDEN, TUMBLR STYLE hashtags in your posts. The regular BSky site/app can't see them, but they work in search and feeds.

    If you're a Twitter artist worried about how you'll be discovered without An Algorithm™, you gotta go back to hashtags. Like how people found posts on Twitter before IT had an algorithm.

    Think about what communities/subcultures your intended audience belongs to, and hashtag

    How to Grow on BSky as an Artist:
    Secret Pro Tip They Don't Want You to Know About:

    1.) Have a PFP, Display Name, Handle, Banner, and Bio that make it clear you're an Artist

    2.) Interact with other people's posts.

    If you buy ULINE boxes, your money goes to Extreme Right Wing Politicians and Groups.

    Comic & Webcomic publishers that champion queer and diverse stories should be careful about this. Don't ship your comics in ULINE boxes. The money will go to the same people tryna ban your books.

    Ok Quiet Posters is so good it makes sure the people you follow that don't post a lot don't get lost in the cracks.

    (Also you can cheerlead for them and reskeet them and boost their art)

    Yeah this is why I'd rather just keep wrestling the devs and being annoying "Tumblr Users vs Automattic"-style than just pack up and leave.

    We used to not have mod tools. We were so annoying that the devs gave us mod tools and Jack Dorsey got mad and left.

    If you see someone struggling in the next few years to pay rent, or afford healthcare (including gender affirming care), or buy groceries, please support them.

    Check the #MutualAid tag. All we have is each other. No one else cares about us.

    I say it a lot,

    But as a Twitter nobody(*) who became a BSky somebody(*), small artists, please browse your favorite tags on recent, or scroll underdog-uplifting art feeds and reply to/befriend the artists you find.

    Waiting for someone to RT my art was part of what made Twitter bleak for me.

    A year ago someone told me to remind people that like, payment processor transaction fees (ie: PayPal transaction fees) on your income are deductible business expenses so please make sure to log them in your bookkeeping and show them to your accountant/tax guy.

    IDK who needs to hear this right now but Perfectionism™ is the enemy of Done™.

    Just finish that thing at your current skill level and make a better one later… Ppl get more praise for putting mid things into the world than for holding back chipping away at Perfection™ and dying before finishing.

    If your budget allows,

    If trans people are safe with you, give them money.
    If queer people are safe with you, give them money.
    If people of color are safe with you, give them money.
    If disabled people are safe with you, give them money.
    If you want Palestinians to be safe, give them money.

    We used to be good at this, IDK if the Twitter Migration changed the vibes.
    Anyway, don't forget, artists gotta RT artists too.

    Twitter Artist Refugees… Just know,
    Search is good here. Hashtags are good here.

    I want to see your art posts. I don't trust people to reskeet them onto my TL. Don't wait for that. I want to find them through search and custom feeds.

    Hey artists! If you're looking for more feeds and hashtags to use for visibility, Mir has a hashtag guide (for their corresponding feeds) here,

    And you can see the feeds they work with on their profile!
    Please share for any artists who need more tags to try.

    Well to anyone coming from Twitter, my main advice would be: "Make a friend, be a friend."

    Comment on other people's posts and try to make peer connections. Not just fan/customer/patron connections.
