I feel exactly 100% the same way
:c

I'm really scared too cause so much of my business comes from that site.. I really hope that more artists will make weasyl a priority too so more people will move over.

I am saving up still and showing all my friends your art ♥

I feel ya, 100% of my income comes from commissions over there and though it's mainly used to help supplement my mothers, since I'm sorta in between a rock and a hard place housing and job wise, it's still hella important and taking even a minor dent to it would suck.
But gahhh I just feel so much better about myself as a person by trying to cut ties with that place and sticking with my morals;;;
At the end of the day, for me at least, I like the comfortable feeling the decision gave me and plan on throwing myself into trying to build up this site in the various little ways that I can. But gahhh I wish you loads of financial luck! this whole thing has put a lot of us out of sorts uAu

you can try to slowly move your business over here, your well being is more important than the pride of not being on a gross site anymore

These are my exact thoughts, word for word >___<

oh gosh I really really hope things go over well for you bby, I totally understand that worry and FA wasn't my main source of business in the first place;;; But man i just..I don't even read or look at the things i get on my FA anymore because of how gross and rude the comments are about everyone rightfully moving, I can't wait until Weasyl really takes off and i can just pretend i was never a part of FA;;
but anywho i wish you all the luck bby and you are super brave and your art is super lovely and you can do it! ;A;<3

Hopefully people will move over an' follow you here. To give a little push, you could always raise the price of stuff on FA and offer a little more discounted price here, thus making them go "wull shit I could save money moving over there". See this is the fewer number of folks who can't leave from FA; too many people don't care about the fandom nor the people making it up, JUST the pictures, and unfortunately won't learn to use a with a design made after 2005, so artists who live off of comish HAVE to stay there X/ It's really selfish.... FA is just a site, but people are showing their colors and contributing to fandom rot and hurting other folks who make a living off of doing art... Things are just so damn messy aaargh... I wish FA would just shut down already.

I know others are in the same boat, I'm putting priority to commissioning people on Weasyl.
