Sure thing. Thanks for clarifying. Since I make a lot of art and like to share it, instead of sharing less, i tried to prompt the community to share more. I don't want to stop neither sharing nor producing.
I shared at the same frequency over at reddit with.. no issue (other than.. well.. reddit), mostly since a lot of people post everyday. I want a fediverse where my frequency isn't spamming, and that's what i'm trying to build.
Sure, that's understandable.
And the more I respond to these issues, the more I feel like a gatekeeping-shithead, in general. And no question about it-- I find that your graphics / photo mashups are pretty cool IMO!
Right, but it comes down to specific communities. Just as always, and across specific platforms. That's just how THAT works, for better or wurst.
For example, there are some subs that are all about original art, and some which attempt to (mostly) summon up the fascinating history of art... like this one.
'Snoken' isn't here these days for whatever reasons, but I feel like he'd want to help you share more classical art, if he was. Not just our own homegrown art, which for sure is legit art as well. But more like what I'm saying.
I'm going to shut up now, since I feel like a total asshole. I've said whatever constructively-intended things I aimed for, totally bumbling the message, most likely.
Good luck, and ciao, baby.
Hey.. uh.. .. you made me reconsider.. Maybe I'm harming this community.
I don't know of the history of art, nor anything about fine arts. So.. perhaps i should go elsewhere. Thanks for showing me the door. I'm out.
