I really love this app honestly I feel like it's a better way to share your art with others and yet feeling a sense of security I also noticed that you cant add videos? Or maybe it's just me also I think there also should be a post count I don't know if that's possible if it isn't then it's fine but over all I think it's pretty awsome I haven't encountered bugs posting and editing is so easy and I think it's pretty easy to understand 100% recommend 🤓🤙🏾

Remember when instagram showed you people you followed in chronoligical order, didn't attempt to prey on media addiction, you could curate a profile to look at only art without a bunch of ads and shorts distracting you? It's like that. Like when that app was good and ethical, and catered specifically towards humans making art. The only reason I didn't give it a perfect score is that it sometimes has server issues. I don't mind though. I like not feeling addicted to my phone.

The setup and layout of the app was good. But if the artwork you post to your profile looks at all remotely like it could possibly be an AI generated image, even when it isn't, your account gets suspended and then you have to do all the work to get it unsuspended. I recommend using something else and not to waste your time with this app. On the off chance your profile gets suspended cause they deem your artwork, Ai.
