Followers are a problem. Not only do they slowly wither away from being active and being able to view your content anymore, but some of them are too immature and picky to look at your work, and that they aren't worth your time with them in your followers tab, especially if they are alt accounts. Because, they are the same person. I've moved on to being a full-fledged on artist, but since my views per project has lowered down a lot, I guess it was kind of a mistake for me to do that, because now then it wouldn't really be worth staying in this community anymore due to my aging popularity. But what can I really do here? It's my hobby now, and it is what I do best at this very moment. I'm stuck on using the bitmap editor to draw art, and I have been considering to switch to using another art program to further enhance the quality of my drawings. But the main problem with that is that I don't plan to do that at the very moment, which really could get to some people at this point. The followers problem also applies with my perfectionism. Just a few weeks ago, I have made a DMC celebrating 700+ followers, but then there's this other DMC that celebrates reaching the 300 follower mark, and it gets way more views and entries compared to mine, which currently has NO entries and has only gotten more than 20 views and it's halfway through the deadline (about 15 days), and that really puts my self-esteem to it's lowest. Asking people about my DMC was my only solution, but I'm kind of a picky guy myself, and that I only choose the finest artists to make them participate in it, so there really wasn't much hope of me to do that. To summarize, even if you have many followers, you may not get the popularity from your projects as you wanted them to. That includes this one.
cta I'm terribly sorry if I had hurt any of your feelings here. This was supposed to be something that I had to get off my chest rather than something that was meant to offend others. Again, I apologize.
