hey guys, long time no see. I had typed a long heartfelt message for this but dA's stupid broken fucking website froze so now it's gone. The gist was basically, I am never posting on DeviantArt ever again. This site had basically raised me as an artist and I appreciate it for that, but ever since they implemented image-generating AI that by default uses everyone on dA's art as training material, with an obscure google form to only shield you from some keywords, I can no longer use DeviantArt. I used DeviantArt as only an archive for a while now, but ever since they've rolled out AI ""art"" I cannot forgive them and will never ever forgive them for being anti-artist. I am using Newgrounds as an archive now. I don't know if any of my watchers are even active anymore, but you can find me on these sites, active: https://quiietjay.newgrounds.com/ https://twitter.com/Quiietjay And also my artfight as a treat: https://artfight.net/~Quiietjay Goodbye, and I hope everyone who was
