I should add that this would be for only social media. For here and bluesky ^^ I might use my model to make a version of my art sona to use during art streams maybe ^^
Im debating seperating my stream stuff from my art stuff when presenting and interacting with others. I keep stun locking myself man XD Also having like, tuber self and my self-sona for art sounds lovely ๐๐
I genuinely donโt understand following someone if you never interact with any part of their content.
No streams, no clips, no YouTube videos, no shorts, no TikToks. At that point I personally struggle to understand whatโs actually being supported because a follow by itself doesnโt really mean much. A follow with no interest in anything you do is equivalent to a bot follow.
You donโt have to watch every stream or consume everything someone makes, but support usually means engaging with something once in a while because you enjoy the content.
And something I notice a lot in certain spaces is people only interacting with engagement posts or surface level posts while never actually watching or checking out any content. Then sometimes those same people jump straight into flirty messages or act overly familiar despite not knowing anything about the person or what they even make as far as streaming content and whatever else.
At the end of the day Iโd rather have people who genuinely enjoy my content vs bigger numbers with no actual interest behind them.
But thatโs just me.
I AM MAKING A VTUBER VALORANT DISCORD!!!
10 MANS, TEACHING, COLLABING, WE WILL HAVE IT ALL!!!
Please reply below if you are interested and I will notify you once it is live!
@Jagi_VT I've actually had so many bad experiences and sadly almost all of them were with those I had considered my closest friends and now I no longer talk to them ๐
It was a collab with my partner @Jagi_VT a friend I knew and trusted, and a new person that friend invited in. It started out okay but then the new person invited in, she kept missgendering me, didn't correct or apologize when any of us corrected her. Then she proceeded to argue
Do you guys have any bad collab experiences?
My worst one was a couple years ago with a VTuber. We were supposed to play Valorant together, but something came up on their end. They canceled less than an hour before we were scheduled to go live. I get that emergencies happen, so I reached out to rescheduleโฆ and got completely ghosted. A short while later, they even unfollowed me.
We had similar-sized audiences, so it wasnโt like I was a nobody to them. I was just left hanging with nothing. I hope they were okay, but it definitely left a sour taste in my mouth.
It made the collab really stressful and I think I ended up opt'ing out of talking for rest of it ๐ its been a lot of collabs of me being invited to a group thing where I only know one person and get treated like I'm not there, very careful with collabs ^^
With me on the pronunciation of Jagi's name, argued with him on his name as well. She claimed we were saying HIS name wrong because we were not using the Korean pronunciation and we kept explaining its not just a Korean word and where he got it from and she just wouldn't let up.
Being a openly transmasc vtuber is really lonely. I don't feel welcome in any space as a vtuber because of who I am and it's left me debating taking it back and just presenting as fem so I don't feel so left out of this space ;-;
I wanna quickly vlarify something with my lewdtub stuff. I'm only really comfy with flirting on stream cause I am playing a role, a character, my oc if u will. Where outside that stream, Im just an unhinged gremlin that wishes to not be lewd'd. Im just a foreskin stealing lil guy
Hot Take. Price filters aren't a "race to the bottom". If someone's budget doesn't meet your rates THAT'S OK. You don't need to drop them to compete.
If someone's budget is $30 seeing art that is $250 isn't going to magically make them want to save for that piece. They'll just keep looking for someone in their range either on-site or off-site (i.e Draw Market, Pipipen, etc.).
All it does is take away their choice and try to force them into higher price points that may not be economically feasible for them. Just because someone doesn't have a lot of money, or their currency is weaker doesn't mean they should have to jump through hoops.
It makes it 1000% more painful and time consuming on customers who are trying to find artists in their range. Open listing, see price not in budget, close listing, keep going. It's a P.I.T.A.
Pair that with the astronomically abhorrent lazy loading, scroll forever until it crashes, search and you've got customers pulling their hair out in frustration. I can't express vehemently enough how much I LOATHE this system. Just give me the options for Pagination ("Previous," "1, 2, 3," "Next") for the love of god! ๐ฌ๐ฌ
I'd actually argue that price filters will put artists in view of the right clients for their services. And let's not forget that these wouldn't be "default" filters so w/e their algorithm sorts by now would still be applicable on initial load.
Additionally if something like this was implemented, and it should be since it's the standard on every other site without issue, then stronger enforcement on artists who click bait pricing needs to occur. And not just the ones using $1 - $5 bait either. I'm talking the ones using full body images and listing "bust" level prices with their "range" of prices in the description vs. make separate appropriate listings. ยฏ\_(ใ)_/ยฏ
Then I am fine with that cause I helped them on their journey ^^ We are struggling right now so I dont really see the point on making it harder on just one side, or a "commissioner vs artist" type situation. We both need each other in order to do what we do.
All the artist discourse here makes me not wanna be using this site tbh ๐ Imma say my peace and do me. Yes, you should be 100% charged for commercial use, its dumb to think you shouldnt. But you should not be charged extra for using something on stream thats MEANT for that, tbc
Order to make it more budget friendly for the vtubers who are just starting out or dont have as much income. I price myself for lower income vtubers because I myself am one and understand that struggle and want to see other vtubers thrive. If I get $10 for a full panel set
