Alright, wow! Thank you everyone for voicing your opinions and being so thoughtful about it all!
What I’m hearing is a lot of “no thanks!”. I appreciate y’all seeing where I’m coming from and meeting me at this weird position. While some of you use art to process and make sense of the world, many of you use art (at least, here at Foxsy) to take a break from all the toxicity.
Some of you ask a really good question that does come at the heart of this issue: what is considered political?
Because you’re right. Some people’s very identities are deemed “political” and they can’t escape that label no matter how much they try.
Here is what I think my next steps are going to be: I will talk with the team about creating community guidelines that specifically spell out what is and is not allowed. That way we can all have a clear idea of what kind of community vibe we’re feeling.
At the end of the day, I want to make sure you all are happy. And right now, there isn’t enough interest to justify opening up that can of worms.
Once again, thank you for all your opinions! You all rock!

That doesn’t sound weak, it sounds relatable. It truly IS exhausting seeing such charged stuff everywhere online. Thank you for sharing your two cents!

Oof, same. My camera gallery is bananas.

This is a brilliant solution to such a classic problem! And you also have the added benefit of technically being “offline” when you’re in the folder (as opposed to a scroll on a site), meaning you’re much less likely to get distracted.
Bravo!

Procreate is definitely a tough one to learn; but once you get it figured out, it’s wildly powerful! If you want to check out a class on digital lettering, it will tell you tons of tips and tricks to help you get a handle on Procreate:
