yes. this is how we survive, and to be honest with you, surviving is harder than ever. i don't want boldly unique and sometimes unpublishable artwork to die out but i especially don't want its creators to disappear further into the margins
@verikoira.bsky.socialthis year & all future years should be the time where we start putting in the effort to reading the works of small creators and talk about them to all our friends and also strangers. most of the recs for work i love ive gotten from people who know me and my tastes really well, not a trending ig reel
