slugbox tweets every other minute and is always online either posting his art or retweeting porn

>>3861360

I see. I would have guessed that it's counter productive to post so much stuff that's not related to your own art that you clutter your feed but it seems to have worked out for him.

>>3861367
there's actually a social media "rule" called 80/20 that most companies follow, "The content of your social media posts should be 80% about other topics your audience is interested in and 20% about you. That keeps you top-of-mind, but not annoying."

>>3861356
Not sure if he means non art tweets or everything? If it's non art stuff then I'm grateful because let's be honest almost nobody is interested in the personal lives of a random Twitter artist. Even worse if their media feed is full of gacha and food photos.

>>3861381
If my social media account is just posting art then I should avoid sharing controversial opinions, right?

>>3861446
It doesn't matter as long as you post porn.

>>3861360
Japs and Koreans really love retweeting a bunch of shit over and over, its really no wonder how a lot of them go over 100k+ posts.

>>3861478

It's all fake. I bet they don't even look at what they're retweeting just to look active. Hell you could program a twitter macro to retweet every X minutes if you wanted to.

>>3861356
im pretty selective since i shitpost a lot and do similar. its mostly so people coming for art arent inundated with stupid shit constantly

>>3861599
the main thing is really your media tab, most people will go through that or check out your wall if pics are close enough together.

if you fill that shit with reaction images and pictures of food my chances of following you significantly decrease, so i make sure not to do it myself, and if i do: it gets deleted within a week or 2 max

>>3861446
you can say anything somewhat left leaning and no one will bother you, but if you say something right leaning youre more likely to lose followers

i literally lost a follower for replying to notch, not related to my wall. i honestly cant fucking stand the LGBT retards on that platform

>>3861381
Well I guess that explains why the modern internet is clogged with garbage.

>>3861381
That's so fucking stupid and doesn't work for posting art. People don't follow artist to see retweets.

>>3862411
not necessarily retweets but things that interest your audience eg. fanart, tutorials, advice, etc.

there's a guy on youtube that made an experiment on instagram where he will post a book recommendation once a week, and he got 5x likes and comments than what he usually gets on his other posts.

>>3861607
yeah, but
>reaction images and gifs
yeah
But it's very asshole-ish to treat people's feeds (including your own) like that.
Self-destructing tweets would be great, but that's kind of against the spirit. What Twitter really needs is not deletion of stuff, but better ways of managing those tweets.
This is always a fucking broken approach, coming at people instead of coming at the platform and raising a viral stink about it.
People should use Moments more. So far it's the best way of collecting and organizing tweets.
There are Collections in TweetDeck, they look neat, like a regular timeline, but this feature is buried and neglected. It could still pick up if they'd properly expose it, making collections visible in profile, letting us add stuff to them from apps, and such. But it is a bit fundamentally broken, collections are always public by link, tweets aren't sortable by date, and such. Moments are better still. But boy, are they painful to edit.

we really need something better
- easy as fuck to customize
- nsfw art is allowed
- hosted in Japan
- 16+ or 18+ platform that bans under-aged users
- real moderation that bans low quality fetish art and keeps the site looking professional
- scat/guro obviously banned
- can be used to host private portfolio pages
- the format of your posts can be customized as well
- integrates with twitter so your posts are shared
- also functions as a blog for writers and businessmen because the site can't be artists only

>>3862484
what is mastodon
>- real moderation that bans low quality fetish art and keeps the site looking professional
kys hope your trash gets deleted
also powertripping
>- 16+ or 18+ platform that bans under-aged users
unrealistic. and it's not even that, but more about proper marking of nsfw and more specific content. it would be much better if people could mark invididual tweets as nsfw, instead of what we have now. right now it's all or nothing, and you basically disappear if you set your profile to nsfw. some other platforms work like this too, and it's another reason why tumblr sucked and died, people and their stuff was undiscoverable, which is bad.

>don't ban low quality fetish art
>site gets flooded with low quality fetish art
ok deviantart

Pawoo is pretty great for artists, not sure about businessmen. Idk, I'd prefer a social media site without retarded journalists and people that contribute nothing but their unsolicited hot takes.

>>3862504
Pawoo has potential but its really small right now. It needs to catch on first or more artists need to use Pixiv.

>>3861611
damn, how does it feel to lose 50% of your follower base?

>>3862504
>>3862519
Pawoo is like Bitchute, its fantastic and free speech, but normies dont use it cause MUH FAMILIARITY

https://mastodon.social/@Gargron/2657448 lel

a lot of these artists are on twitter all fucking day long retweeting and responding to shit. i can't do that so i will always be at a disavantage.

>>3862620
What kind of disadvantage?

>>3862619

what's so funny?

>>3862631

Making new posts to stay relevant on the feed, I guess?

>>3862601
my mom likes my art at least

>>3862484
>hosted in Japan
No.
Then porn will be censored idiot.

>>3861607
>pictures of food
Why is this so prevalent in jp artists tweets?

>>3863322
>tfw jp artist kept posting food so was about to unfollow then realize those pictures of food were all drawn.

>>3863222
>pixelated porn or porn with a 1px black line going through it is worse than banning it all around
hmmmmmmmmmmm

>>3863893
I like my freedom faggot. Not him but fuck you, I'm American so I get uncensored shit. Fuck Nips.

>>3863970
Except you get nothing because youre stupid enough to host on servers that will ban you after a few angry lefties email the providers

>>3862645
eugene """created""" mastodon to escape from censorship. bur he tries to censorship loli drawings.

pawoo is the biggest mastodon instance.
and he can't do a shit about it.

i wish more twitter artists would do this. especially japs who are constantly tweeting pictures of food and gacha game screenshots.

>>3863222
You can post uncensored on pixiv as long as the first picture in a series is censored. What many western artists there do is post 2 versions of the exact same picture as a 'gallery' or whatever with the first one censored and the other one not.
On the topic I'd say autodeleting tweets in general is a very good practice because you never know what innocuous post you make now may be considered a deadly sin that gets you fired in 3 years. A lot of many people considered even remotely controversial are on the autodelete train including big relatively normie ones like pewdiepie.
