In light of the latest news about DA allowing AI engines to steal your artwork unless you manually check off every single devation, I will closing both of my DA accounts. You can find me on either twitter or tumblr as Vodkafolie. I've been on this site for twenty years and it had a lot of fond memories for me. It was my first real art platform and I met so many friends and discovered so many amazing, talented artists. The current, soulless corporation scraping artwork from galleries and violating artist's right at a time when we're getting more and more screwed over is not the website I joined in 2006. I have saved everything from both my accounts and will be deleting everything shortly. It's been a bittersweet and nostalgic time reading old comments and interactions.
A lot of friends I've made on here have disappeared over the years. Wherever you are and whatever life's thrown at you, I really hope you're okay and thriving.
