Social media is great at making me feel terrible and I can’t help but feel sensitive and insecure with metrics, especially at my lowest. Most of my videos don’t get much traction anyway (which is normal). It’s the random minority but I keep questioning what I did wrong. The safest way is to sign up for my blog’s email updates rather than depend on social media platforms but I don’t think that’s a popular option :’) I super appreciate the small handful of people who are still on the mailing list, thank you!!Īhhh I am overwhelmed with posting to many social places and I’m just trying to see what sticks :’)īeen feeling upset/irritated/hurt when I get sudden bunch of dislikes on some Youtube videos and trying to not take it personally nor get discouraged. It’s just not worth my full time and effort but I’m managing what I can :’) Instagram and twitter have both plateaued/fluctuated for years for me so I don’t know if I’m reaching people, let alone those who kindly follow me. Or they don’t care for what you post/say/do. Personally I don’t miss the mixed, sad feeling like you’re at a social event/town square and it turns out you’re mostly talking to yourself as people walk/scroll past you without a second thought and go for the hot takes/toxic drama/discussion/popular/entertaining/educational people. People, artists around the world and companies felt accessible there (in a distant, online kind of way). It’s where I have my largest (but most are not engaged) audience and how I’ve met many gamedev people before I reverted back into a hermit.
I’m kind of sad that Twitter is dying – for the few good things.
Had to search for artist/peeps elsewhere, figuring out Mastodon & Cohost and I don’t know how long twitter is going to be around :’)
