Your personal Tumblr library awaits
Sorry I haven't really posted much recently, it's no ones fault but my own and I just can't be bothered much lol.
I'm a bit more active on Cara though, if anyone wants to check that out?
As always, I love y'all and have a good day, night, evening or afternoon!
figured i’d write and share this around so others in the community i’m in know my status. sooo, some basics for starters:
“Are you leaving Instagram? Where can I find you active?”
i’m staying on instagram for the time being. seeing as instagram almost certainly already has the data of my past posts, i won’t be deleting anything; going forward, i’ll be using ai disturbance filters and other anti-ai overlays for any stills i post. i anticipate using instagram for reels primarily, as well as staying in communications with mutuals and other artists. i do have a cara account, but will likely be posting intermittently until some issues i’ve noticed get addressed. going forward, i’ll most likely be at my most active over here! growth, fortunately, never was a priority in my social media presence so i’m not super concerned about that.
tldr:
instagram: gonna continue posting reels and occasional stills, will be primarily focused on interacting with fellow artists
here: most active! will post both rough and polished stills, as well as lore and whatever random thoughts pop into my head. (see pinned post for a tag guide)
cara: activity will be low unless shit really hits the fan on instagram and i can no longer protect my work via overlays. if you’re an insta moot, feel free to dm me if you want me to share your posts around, though! if the link doesn’t work: i’m @/asphodelity [EDIT] cara does work with an ai organization, hive; here is a post that goes into it and other things people have said about the platform! as i already wasn’t intending to use the platform all that often this won’t change anything for me, but make sure to do your research if you’re looking into the platform!
“Will this affect how much you post?”
not really! i already have a fairly sporadic posting schedule, so i’ll just be continuing what i’ve been doing: posting when i have things i wanna share :]
“Help! I’m an Instagram artist and want to know how to protect my art!”
i gotchu.
[EDIT] the non-glaze/nightshade/artshield filters are mostly ineffective! it won’t hurt you to use them, but if you can stick to using the glaze and nightshade sites!! if you don’t have a pc, you can apply to get a webglaze account!
how to (hopefully) opt out of your art being scraped in the european union (i think?)
how to (hopefully) do the same in the united states (note: post could be outdated)
other ways to protect your art: one, two, three, four
ai disturbance filters: one, two, three (set these to overlay at 30% as the top layer for most effectiveness! these aren’t as effective as using a website like glaze, but are better than nothing)
after june 26, no matter your region, you’ll be unable to opt out of ai data training. this affects, to my knowledge, everything you post, including captions.
“Any other thoughts?”
now, more than ever, we as a community need to stick together and support each other. don’t let anyone tell you your art isn’t worth anything; we as artists have something very special in our ability to create, express ourselves, and connect with the world around us, an algorithm and misguided techbros will never be able to take that away from us. keep pursuing what you love, my friends; we have to weather the storm to see the rainbow.
my dms are always open for art reasons. need a pep talk? i’m around. wanna collab or trade? i’d love to! need help boosting your social medias? i’m happy to help (although my presence is admittedly very small). whatever it is, i’m here and willing to help!
i’ll keep updating yall on this platform as my activity changes (or, perhaps, something big related to ai happens), so be sure to stick around if that seems interesting! also, please feel free to reblog this post and add more information i may have missed, that’s all for now, thank you for your time <3
I’ve been trying out Cara (the new anti-ai platform where artists can share their art, hang out, or find work - made by artists for artists) and it’s awesome so far! It’s only in beta right now so there are some things that can be improved upon, but they just surpassed 300k users and everyone I’ve encountered so far has been super nice. The community of very comfortable and stress-free, you don’t have to worry about ai stealing your art or mean comments from non-artists who have no idea what they’re talking about.
Overall, it seems super promising as a new social media platform! Feel free to check it out and maybe we could be mutuals?? :]
I find it a bit funny that i was drawn to cara bacause of the online glaze feature...only to realize that it has a cooldown and literally isn`t available while i`m awake during the day.
I said screw it and decided to post stuff anyway without glazing it. Ai is not worth my sleep scedule lol
No shade to the creator of Cara though. The fact they teamed up with glaze and made the feature available in the first place is so cool (even if i can`t use it). Hope to get webglaze at some point but from what i understand it is invite based.

Hey I wanted to let you know that Cara is a new social media thingy that automatically glazes your art. You might wanna check that out too.
I do have Cara! And I managed to snag the Tofu username (no pixel suffix, how amazing)
So far the site seems very nice, I think I will be using it in the future
Follow me if you have it
Im crying guys 😭😭
Is this what yall want from me???
I don't know if anyone has already drawn a humanization of Cara (share if you know ^^), but somehow this is how I see Cara as a human:D
If you don't know, Сara is a social network for artists. It's fairly new, but I like it^^
Hii instagram's on fire rn so I'm trying out Cara! It's an anti-ai artist app with a portfolio and timeline section to keep your art and reposts separate and organized :)
I'll still be on insta, but this app looks promising! It's currently in beta and I see so much potential! ❤️
