Nah, I basically just said that I like it with a few more words.🫣 Anyway, I'm glad to see you on Bluesky and that you're posting fresh work!

The images look great! The dark moodiness and vague abstraction leave a lot to your imagination while still alluding to the ideas you intended. Love it!

Thank you for pointing out! I left X because of that same reason (and because I didn't want to support Musks personal political agenda by providing content to his business). Seems like Substack is another place to avoid using.

Hey Jeff, I have no specific experience with either, but am wondering what's up with Substack that you feel at odds with? Your worries might be reason for me to quit using it, too.

I’m already cracking my knuckles in preparation for starting to write something here.✍️🤓

Thank you! And good to se you here!👋

Hey Roberto, good to read you! I'm fine, I hope you are, too!

Since I stopped using X a year ago (or something), I've been slowly getting out of touch with what's been going on in gen art. So I am pretty happy that Bluesky seems to be a thing now.☺️

Oh dear…🦌😅

Yeah, it's where I've been trying for quite some time to find people who are interested in digital art. It's a friendly place!

Trying to find people who are actively interacting with what I wrote there wasn't really successful, though, I have to admit.

Hey there! 👋 Good to meet you again (though I'm not really sure if I feel more at home here or on Mastodon. Neither, probably)...😅

gm! That's what I'm trying to find out, too. Haven't checked in here for weeks (months?), but now want to test the water again.

The weather didn't become any better since I saw your pictures, but my mood did.😎 This phone picture of my balcony should make you enjoy the beaches even more...😂

Just the kind of sunny vibes that I need on a wet, rainy fall day here in the Northern hemisphere!☀️

I don't know; seriously. I guess it's also a lack of obvious alternatives: Bluesky's walled of zone of static images (no video) is not really appealing, and neither is Mastodon's community of crypto-, AI- and mainstream-averse holier–than-thou preachers, and Threads isn't available in Europe.

🤷‍♂️😢

There's still that feeling of community among artists and collectors on X. For those who don't care much about Musk's awful positions, there's probably still too much of a network effect keeping them there.

Hello Æther, so good to see you here!

Are you giving Bluesky another try? I mostly use Mastodon at the moment and only check here occasionally (though more frequently than your two months interval😉).

It would be magnificent to revive the good old days of yore here.
