    I had no idea, and this hurts. I have a few, but fond, memories about DeviantArt when I had a short phase on highschool where I was drawing for a bit (which was more than 10 years ago). It didn’t last long, but DeviantArt was a large part of it.

    Hearing they are commiting to AI art - THE platform for actual artists (at least it was, 10 years ago), who AI hurts the most, is insane. That’s pure betrayal. I hate this.

      my first pc was a vista laptop, i downloaded some awesome windows themes and cursors from deviantart. once i tried to replace the start menu orb, but the image file i replaced must’ve been the vista logo that comes up at boot. it didn’t boot anymore.
