I just think that if I post my big endwalker piece that I’m putting so much love into it only for it to get 100 reposts and No additional thoughts or commentary from another human being, it would break me.

So I don’t think I’ll post anymore art on here.

Like I would rather get five comments that say “wow! Cool!!” then 100 reposts any day

Art is meant to be engaged with, and I assume most people aren’t likely to both comment and repost which is fine I understand that

It feels so lonely posting art on here idk, like something could get hundreds of passive reskies and then? It’s just forgotten about never to be engaged with beyond a notification

This was my problem with twitter too, sites like this just don’t feel good for the creative spirit

REAL. Just holding my breath that tumblr lasts another several years until a good replacement comes around :’)

At the very least, if I rebluesky the first post, your comments in the rest of the thread should be easier for people to find!

This isn’t arguing that people shouldn’t still engage with the following posts, just thinking about what might cause the drop off in engagement and my thinking

I get that. Even now it’s a struggle deciding what to reply to lol

Though in terms of sharing posts or reposting or reskying or whatever, I think at least by sharing the first post—as opposed to say sharing this one that’ll be seen out of the og context—is better for visibility on the whole thread

What is the number you’re looking at? Is it likes? Because I personally find it redundant to like every post in a thread, so depending on what it is like if it’s art or a wol lore or gpose, I only really like the first post even if I see every post in the thread.

I like reading threads anyway tho

That was a fun read and really interesting seeing all the parallels between them and what Kitali gravitates to!

Where is this rant 👀👁️

Avi’li started calling G’raha “Raha” almost immediately when they met in ARR. Avi’li is an informal person and be gives nicknames to everyone he likes as a form of affection.

I’m curious, maybe a #wolqotd if you feel so inclined:

When (If ever) did your WoL start using G’raha Tia’s less formal name with him and start calling him Raha?

How did he react to being addressed as such?

New day new thing for people to complain about ig LOL

Correct!! But omg this Kitali Yugiri lore…. 👀 and the way the narrative frames Yugiri and the WoL as equals especially irt Hien (standing equal distances behind him/playing support to his decisions) just made them feel like partners to me!

For Avi, is he’s more of a field medic and is almost always in triage mode when he’s actively healing. He focuses on stitching any wounds together again with geometric magicks, and relieving pain with salves and drugs (a SGE/BTN/ALC healing combo)

#Wolquestion | #WolQotd

How skilled is your WoL (Oc) treating wounds? Are they able to use healing spells? Or make proper bandages?

This is so wild to me, like! Read the mood!

Idk like…. I just readily assume there are layers to a character even if I only see one side of them. Weird to me people don’t engage with by more questions.

Can’t ever forget the WoL walking up the Steps of Fate to face Nidhogg. Forever engraved in my memory as the first moment that felt truly heroic.

Special personal mention to when Yugiri says “Oboro would be proud” when you do a good sneaky ninja job during reconnaissance. ;u;

#FFXIV players.
What is your favorite moment from Final Fantasy XIV that is NOT and I repeat.. that Is NOT!! From Shadowbringers or Endwalker.

I'm legitimately curious.
