@Artistreccs I agree— if you wanna advertise ur art make a post, those who follow you and are actually interested will see it. DMing someone about it let alone a stranger that doesn't know you is not the way to go
English

At no point should you, the artist, reach out to potential clients or anyone else in dms to advertise your art, even if you are desperate! It is highly unprofessional and "scammy", no matter how much fluff you put in those words.
Don't do this!
komi@kaopao4444
do you commission artists? i’d like to know what you think about cold calling, or cold messaging(?) basically when an artist reaches out to you directly in dms to advertise their art

@AngryVoter2024 wtf i have so many questions that are probably better left unanswered— this isn't normal

I have never had sex at a concert and didn’t even know you were supposed to be doing that, I mostly just stand there and watch the stage
solé@layxsnv

@om_patel5 I don’t blame the sender I’d be verrry annoyed some repos are fragile how does one get a job in this field and casually attempt changing 4000 lines without any idea whats going on

@BluebriarArts I give myself a timeline and a plan for every day from beginning to end— realized in comparison to games I improvise on the go if I stick to a plan it doesn’t end in my WIP. I recommend game jams— 5 days long jams grinds keep the motivation running

@ahsannoor101 lmao I call == “equals to” and === “IS equal to” to remember which is which in JS

@MekoyNelo CONGRATULATIONS stranger with beautiful art! VERY WELL DESERVED hope ur art journey after verification is full of good things :)

@wow_real_ You'd be surprised— our fantasies and reality are not too far apart in this matter
English

@KoinuTheo not a vtuber but perhaps I could interest you in a gamedev moot? I'm too trash at my craft to be selling anything— but there is a small fee of having to put up with my cringy dad jokes from time to time

OOOOOHHHHHHH
my dumb brain read “interested in seeing the works I commissioned” and thought they were asking if you wanted to see their works lmao— im slow thanks for explaining
Damn… it’s too stupid of a scam that I hope no one fell for it but still that’s just an evil thing to try to trick an artist into. Thanks for posting the warning
English

@_alani25 @riverfv_ I havnt taken commissions in YEARS.
Theres no way id owe someone a comm without knowing. This person has probably been threatening artists in dms by saying theyll expose them or some shit. Def a scammer, they blocked me as soon as they read my reply stating I havnt taken comms

@mathhub_vn 1/9 =0.11111111…
2/9 =0.22222222…
3/9 =0.33333333…
4/9 =0.44444444…
5/9 =0.55555555…
6/9 =0.66666666…
7/9 =0.77777777…
8/9 =0.88888888…
9/9 = 1 obviously… aka 0.99999999…
Also if 1/3 =0.333333 then (1/3) + (1/3) + (1/3) = (3/3) = 0.33333+0.33333+0.33333=0.99999

@LinusEkenstam Oh god— not me who came back to x after four years to see something like this
English

I’ve been here since 2007, 19 years.
I’m about to give up on X.
For the third time in <12 months my account is under immense algorithmic suppression. No reach. no nothing.
I get punished for being a good person on the platform.
In the past my account has been “miss labeled by grok” or “i did not do anything wrong, they did”. Stuff that’s been completely out of my control.
This time feels just the same. Nothing breaks past the great algorithmus.
I’m a premium+ user. I provide value and have posted tens of thousands of useful posts on here. Yet my account is pushed into “limbo” where posts get throttled down. Super low view count, and no clear pathway to get out of it.
For the last 2 weeks, nothing gets close to reaching you, my followers.
I’ve seen this before and I know the pattern far too well. It’s a place where many people basically throws in the towel.
There is something seriously wrong with how the reach suppression works on here.
I post daily, 3-6 times, it’s part of my routine, have been doing so for years.
You build momentum, you provide value, and the cycle repeats, until, something breaks out of your network (OON reach) then the algorithm slams you with the biggest breaks ever, throwing your account into reverse.
If @xai and @nikitabier is listening they should really think hard about why stuff like this happens to users that really want the best for this platform.
At the very least, surface insights inside of creator tools area that shows if and when something has gone wrong or happened to your account that can inform us about wrong doings or simply surfaces issues.
That way people like me that spends an unhealthy amount of time on here can better understand why I’m getting punished.
I’m extra under the weather this time.
It just zucks to be fair.

Damn emotional at da end love your video style and thank you for including so much info in one video — age restricting a vtuber bc they look like a child, banning asmr vid, ai email system that gaslights and continuously loops you back to the starting point, not even notifying your subscribers, and the list goes on THIS IS JUST INSANE
@YouTube @TeamYouTube get your .$h!^ together and stop slopping on your creators, they’re the reason you stand
Also looks like lotta effort goes into your content aurora sry u and many other creators gotta deal with this 😞
Idk what I’d do if my fave creators couldn’t post anymore… I hope things are resolved soon and best of luck on your journey to 100k 🫶

@MegaSparked YouTube is attacking avatar based and faceless creators. I’m sorry you’re going through this. I doubt @TeamYouTube is going to ever take accountability for it, so being loud is all we can do. ♥️
YouTube Has a Problem.

We are going to sue YouTube
But before we do, our lawyer is currently in the process of sending a letter to YouTube.
Over 2 weeks ago our channel @UnderSparked" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">youtube.com/@UnderSparked was falsely demonetized under the "inauthentic content" policy.
Demonetized doesn't mean no ads though, all it means is YouTube will still run ads on the videos. But they pocket all the revenue, essentially stripping all the revenue from us.
We don't claim to be the pinnacle of quality content standards, but the following things do cause us to scratch our heads in confusion
1. All of the bigger channels in the same niche as us are monetized with no issues
2. We literally voice act, edit, etc, all our own videos while 100s of AI storytelling channels are still monetized
3. YouTube is fine with running ads on the videos, pocketing all the revenue. We assume if YouTube had such a big problem with the content, why still serve it to your advertisers?
4. 100s of reaction channels still stay monetized
Some examples of bigger monetized channels that are in the same niche as us are:
rSlash: @rSlash" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">youtube.com/@rSlash
DarkFluff: @DarkFluff" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">youtube.com/@DarkFluff
Oz's Vault: youtube.com/channel/UCoJ1A…
We support these channels, the reason we are providing these channels as examples is to showcase how it feels like we're being targeted.
This has caused extreme distress for my team and I. Many of our livelihoods and families rely on this channel. Our community relies on the UnderSparked channel.
Many people support the UnderSparked channel because in a time of nonstop AI channels, we stepped up and used real voice actors to cater to that connection and community that viewers on YouTube crave.
We truly believe this demonetization was done in error, all we want is a real human specialist to help us fix the issue.
We're tired of constantly receiving only copy and pasted templated responses, constantly neglecting/dismissing our attempts at fixing the false demonetization.
We're kindly requesting for a representative from @TeamYouTube to help us fix this demonetization issue with our channel.
We don't want to send letters, or sue, or anything! We simply just want to go back to producing content for our community.

@CandyDantel @MillVrit Links are useful i’ve used em to send pinterest boards— that said i get what you mean getting something like this definitely sucks 😭
