A couple of weeks ago, I made the decision to deactivate my Facebook and Instagram accounts. This wasn’t an impulsive choice—it was something I had been considering for months, driven by several key reasons:
Meta’s policies that allow art and photography to be used for training their AI models, often without artists' consent.
Constantly shifting algorithms that force creators to become content producers instead of focusing on making the art they love.
And most importantly, low visibility despite consistently posting and engaging with my audience.
After careful thought, I decided to move my community to Discord—a space where we can connect more authentically and without the barriers of many other social media platforms. For now, the server is private, but I’d love for you to join me!
Why Discord?
You’ll see all of my artwork—no more missing posts due to tricky algorithms.
We can have real, meaningful conversations in a space designed for engagement.
No AI models or algorithmic games—just art and community.
