Hi, I'm new here.
Decided to delete tiktok where I've been sharing some of my sketches since 2025. I had a decent following there and felt part of an artistic community. It feels a bit strange to make this change but also right. For me it had to be done because of the political climate and unclear moderation practices, that were evolving there.
Hope to find a great community here as well. In time I'm sure we'll get there.
Glad to be here.

@mai007 Welcome! It can be hard to find your way around at first. I see you’ve had some good advice already.
Mine is to use hashtags, and follow lots of accounts from lots of different servers. You make your own way here, and the more networks you build, the better.
