It has its own advantages and disadvantages though. Artists would get no feedback if this system shuts down altogether but indeed, in this online world, we have to firm ourselves before exposing our art to the world. Otherwise it is easy to crumble down under the weight of negativity. It's hard but we don't really have an option. 😳
that is something I agree too as well(the second half)... You have to be thick skinned and confident to operate on social media. But like there are platforms for digital artist, i feel there should be better platforms for em too, like IF is beter than sm, till some extent?
But without social media, in general things r not the same, it has its benefits, but then if u have a wrong opinion , it too travels thru.Whereas without, the group and the circulation is smaller, it does help in some cases. Also the channel is not this direct , so offline it saves u a bit, but then also it isint that giving. A price to pay for actors, but in general , its something i dont appreciate. Anyway, its more about conscience, from the people creating the social platforms( PS social dilemma if u have watched u'd know) and from the people using it
