why tho
So why make your own homepage in the Year of Our Lord 2024? A homepage is so 1996, isn’t everybody on social media these days?
Well, it’s complicated.
I’ve been around the block long enough to see different platforms rise and fall. First it was Tumblr’s mass exodus, then it was Twitter’s implosion, and in between there was Instagram and DeviantArt becoming actively hostile to artists. Dozens of platforms each have had their day, and I’ve seen the people I wanted to follow try to keep up, jumping from one platform to the next. Many didn’t make it, some are still trying to find the next true successor that everybody might agree on. Social media may still be ubiquitous, but it’s never been more splintered.
And if everybody really is on the same platform, would that really be any better? What happens when that platform gets bought out by some insane diamond mine profiteer? What happens when they decide to amplify only the voices they agree with, no matter what the actual userbase of the site might say? What happens when they start selling your data and your creations to third parties, copyright law be damned? What happens to the artists when the platform decides to pivot away from actually hosting art into the latest techbro pyramid scheme or social media trend? If we really put all our eggs in the same basket, what happens if that basket falls prey to the need to make a profit at any cost?
That’s not even getting into the mental health costs of being a content creator on social media. People always say you shouldn’t think of your Internet Numbers as a reflection of your value, but sometimes that’s exactly how it feels, not to mention negative interactions ranging from individual comments to coordinated harassment campaigns that social media can enable.
Put simply, I’m tired of the constant race from one platform to the next. Tired of trying to keep up with social media algorithms and their whims. Tired of looking at internet numbers. I just want to post my silly drawings.
I’m done sailing the stormy seas of social media. I’m dropping anchor right here.
