artstation is like instagram, yes its a social media platform, but its really an output platform where people put their outputs up and in general are not looking for feedback, hence all the vanilla "looks good bro" comments. a lot of the communities have moved to discord servers where its much more designed around…
just realised i have been on 'linked in' since 2010 and have not got any work from it :)artstation is a good place to host your folio, that's it really.i quite like reddit threads these days
I also really like ArtStation. Its clean and focuses on folio content. I read somewhere it is used by recruters and the site design reflects that. If I need to view a lot of examples quickly that is my go to. If I need a forum, I come here.

I like FORUM community driven challenges and contests, rather then some quick twit/insta post and go. I never gravitated to socials other than here and artstation, had a utube but after the whole, shadow banning…
You know, a hard truth I feel like everyone comes to realize eventually is that the world's not made for them. Just because something is large and easy to access, and you happen to be aware of it - like artstation, doesn't mean it's going to be what you want it to be or that it was ever supposed to be that. Besides, the…
Not stating i haven't been able to express myself as i feel the desire to 'within reason', but since the shadow banning i feel all sites might be compromised from once's self being expressive to alternative ways of thinking. I hope this has not changed but on artstation (its only a feeling) only a select few from certain…
