atm maybe blocked? by the "Great Firewall" though there's always an option too circumnavigate censorship via VPN servers, as an example cyber security sites like Comparitech, for instance provide actively updated info.
I see, I thought this might be the issue.
Thanks for the quick response,

China does crack down on VPN and other workarounds though.
If artstation is supposed to be blocked they're not doing a very good job. There are plenty of people from china on artstation. You can tell because they'll usually have a QQ.com email address and a weibo link. And of course some just have job titles like "art director at ubisoft shanghai..." The dead giveaway is when their location is set to "China".

Oh! absolutely without a doubt, it's obviously apparent when one is browsing through featured work generated by these amazing artisans, up on AS however idiosyncratic totalitarian regimes typically enforce ideology via censorship... perhaps in this instance not emphatically as I'd alluded too upthread but nonetheless other digital platforms have indeed run afoul, just saying is all...
