My Twitter account, @Feline_Ahegao, was suspended and I was literally given no reason as to why. Since I was given no reason, the only conclusion I can take from this is that there is literally no reason I was suspended. It didn't say anything about inappropriate images, hate speech, harassment, or anything of the sort. This was also very abrupt, as in no locked account or asked to delete anything. I'm not even the first lewd artist to just randomly receive a ban without any reason. I've been in the process of trying to appeal this, but I'm not holding my breath.

It makes me think though, even when I only used my account to post art and try to talk to other artists, I hardly got any interaction with my tweets. It's baffling to me. I've thought about it so many times and I can never pinpoint what the issue is. Did I not post enough art? There are artists that hardly ever post but somehow gain so much interaction whenever they do. Is the quality of my art not that great? There's artists of my quality or "worse" that don't seem to have any issues with engagement. Hell, there are artists that blow my art out of the water and they also had shit engagement. So what exactly is the issue?

At some point I pretty much stopped making it just about my art and would retweet other people's art, memes, shitposts, random talking and arguing with others, etc. That could kill engagement, but again there are artists' accounts that do the exact same thing and they have loads of engagement from their followers. Japanese artists who post about whatever games they're playing, gacha pulls, food, all along with occasionally their art. Western artists who would post their art but their Twitter accounts were mostly random fandom discourse.

I have no idea what the secret to Twitter is. It all just seems random to me. Speaking of random...and something that is absolutely infuriating...not just because I'm suspended for literally no reason but also on an ethical level as well:

There is a Twitter used called @Dom_Lucre. He's a right wing conspiracy theorist who pushes fake narratives and often just flat out lies about the images and videos he shares. He's apparently very popular amongst the alt-right, including Elon Musk. Well, a few weeks ago this dipshit uploaded screen shots from a child pornography film. Not just any CP film, though. It's a CP snuff film called Daisy's Destruction, which is one of the most horrible things ever created. He posted the screen shots and claimed they came from a dark web streaming site. It doesn't really matter what his reasonings were, but initially he was permanently suspended from the platform. However, Elon Musk looked into the case and personally unbanned the fucker.

So someone who posted child sexual abuse is allowed back onto Twitter but random artists get suspended for literally no reason whatsoever? I want the site to fucking burn to the ground. I hate it so fucking much and will consider it a blessing if it ever actually dies. Here's hoping.
