In the midst of horrid wars, pandemics and other human stupidity.. this is nothing. But : THEY TRY TO BURRY US, THEY DON’T KNOW WE ARE SEEDS. We, independent artist and small commerce, who hardly survive on the platform. Don’t get me wrong. I used to enjoy IG, It made me find my clients, meet great humans and made me able to continue my work by sharing it. But now the experience isn’t at all the same, it’s been a couple of years and it’s becoming worst. IG has an affect on attention span, on our happiness and ultimately on us as humans and our society. It’s concealed as a place for social interact. but it mostly just wants you to get sucked into a vicious circle of hunting for the numbers. IG shows the number of likes before your own text…The numbers have a higher ranking than your story about your photo. (I’m talking about work profile on IG there, don’t really know if it affect personal small ones ) : and now they punish you if you don’t pay for advertising by shadowing- ghosting your profile/ - well ok should I pay ? I know by a peer’s experience that the first time it works a little and then they always ask more adds and more money and it’s an ouroboros. I’m so tired of it that I’d like to go off , but For me now the decision is clear: I can’t be OFF. And I don’t want to be completely off. It’s not only my job. And where i find my clients : I still find inspiration on Ig. I still connect over important topics. I still have interesting exchange and it is (or it was ) a easy Way to share my work . .. but the publicity spam.. ffs. I’d like to find another way to do it - and I’m asking for advices or experience from the ones who sees this post. LETS BE SEEDS Now .. Stop blaaaahberrring Also I’ve been working very sporadically, trying my best to organize my projects of Guests travel and be able to pay my bills while I have issues with my health ( not the worst but when it comes, it’s always invasive and debilitating) I enjoy so much working with my clients and I’m always looking forward to it, I love all of them. I’m not sure if my work attracts that certain kind of fantastic person but it seems to, and I want to thank you all so much for that. https://www.instagram.com/p/Cbc56ktA9R-/?utm_medium=tumblr -- source link
