You've heard about the shit going on at FurAffinity.
I thought this site went extinct like the dinosaurs but no it's still here lmao.
Should I even come back here? Like, it's either here or deviantArt for me or Discord.
i don't think the FA policy will effect me, so i dunno if i'll really do much here, but i think my main concern is how i'm gonna convince up to 1,800 of my FA followers to join here. i'm gonna have to start back at the beginning again.
doesn't really help that when i logged onto this account after like 8 years or something, my art still has about 6 views and 1 comment on like 30 pictures uploaded lol.
Yeah, that's the main issue with this site is that attempting to convince people to join on over inevitably runs into the inherent issue that Weasyl is barely active; it's a vicious cycle (or self-fulfilling prophecy) that barring outside intervention is extremely difficult to break.
Either way, could I suggest keeping copies of all your art on your computer's storagee? I likewise do the same in case a gallery of mine gets lost because losing the only copy of something is devastating.
That's definitely good practice. Quoting from somewhere I don't remember the source of:
The best backup is the one you never need, the worst backup is the one you never made.

If you ask me, it would probably be best not to keep all your eggs in one basket; while it's true this site is nowhere near as popular as it was in its heyday, I don't see anything going wrong with also posting here.
