I used to primarily use Instagram for following illustrators, sculptors, digital artists, etc., but I dropped Insta for obvious reasons.

There was also a large exodus from Insta to Cara.app almost a year ago due to Meta’s stupid policies on using Insta content to train AI. While Cara is generally a great site and has anti-AI policies (I’m not anti-AI, just anti the way most companies implement AI), my problem with Cara is that it’s an owner funded site that will inevitably need to find a way to monetize the content/users.

On the Fediverse, I’m on Lemmy, Mastodon (though I don’t love the micro-blog format), and Pixelfed (very little activity).

So my question is: What platforms in the Fediverse are you seeing the most original artist content?

      Bluesky started off as mainly a community of comic artists.

      Mastodon seems more heavy on “furry” stuff.

        Mastodon also has a quite healthy number of pixel art artists.
