I really like your paintings. I also admire that you make time for them even when you don't have much of it.
Just the usual processes of enshittification. (Has that been anybody's word of the year? It should be.)
I think someone did pick it for 2024, but it has obviously not worn out its unwelcome.
Forcing everyone towards videos instead of still images because TikTok. Adding a microblogging level that nobody wanted to try to capture the X market. Clogging up the images feed with irrelevant videos and ads. Opaque algorithms. Basically not letting you do the thing with the site that was the thing that you liked about it to begin with.
Blech! I'm so sorry. All of that sounds offputting to dire.
That's the one thing about Dreamwidth – I don't mind a little extra HTML, but you couldn't call this an image-sharing site.
And if you put someone on your friendlist, you can read them in order!
