Thanks. Don't use Instagram or the site that used to be Twitter -- I flat out refuse to call it that absolutely nonsensical alias it has now -- but have Liked or Followed or whatever on Facebook. Not sure if that counts as my FB handle is not the same as here. I also don't spend a whole lot of time on it, but I will check it out whenever you post there.

Can we tell you how much we hate social media.  Facebook has been losing marketshare steadily for the last year and half. Twitter is a mess since the purchase.  And the navel gazing site insta continues to be as shallow as ever. 

I seriously hope that more and more people recognize how bad social media plattforms like facebook, twitter, instagram and others are for the society and specially for the mental health of our children. 

Don't use any of them....don't intend to.

never have had an account on any of them, generally always avoided them otherwise, have all browser gizmos i could find against their buttons/trackers on other sites - even if they still manage to sneak in quasi everywhere. the idea was interesting, but what has become of it is a global data kraken that messed up lives and privacy. if anything, social media should get banned from other sites, which should not be featuring their share/interaction buttons. like, you wanna do facebook? GO on facebook.

and while we're at it, if not already now, soon there will be AI on them in a form or another, so when this happens, quo vadis, rendo? two weights, two measures?

IN THE END, MERITOCRACY HAS NOT ONLY PERMEATED OUR DAILY LIVES AND WORK, BUT ALSO OUR HEARTS, OUR MINDS AND OUR PERCEPTION OF ART...

Thank you for all your feedback and concerns. Participation on social media is entirely up to each individual in our community and not a requirement. I understand how social media can be viewed as an opposing platform; however, at Renderosity, we want to turn it into something positive, share everyone's art with the world, and show our support and gratitude to each of you. Have a great day, and pop into our social media forum today for a sweet surprise!
