i haven't been here in years. over the last couple of years instagram has been the place where i've posted my photography, and later on, my paintings/drawings. with the changes instagram has made over the past year or two i have mostly stopped using it. i miss the way it used to be, just a site where i could post pictures of my art. basically the way dA was 10 years back. i don't really know why i got away from this site but i might be starting a new account for my paintings and come back to dA because instagram is way too overwhelming with reels, videos, suggested posts, ads being literally e v e r y w h e r e. i hate it. i do enjoy seeing some quick timelapse reels but it's a constant flow of information loading into my brain and i'm just too tired to take it all in so i rarely go on the app. anyways. i'm happy to see dA is still alive and seems to be doing well? i'll keep you posted on my new account if i make one.
