   @mrsaturday @Iffine @Ronnie21093 @poopernova boorus should make metrics of popularity available to verified creators, that would probably help.

     I don't think they care, as long as they can get bags without waging. What they really want is so out of touch with reality that they should feel lucky that things have gone as well as they have recently. Internet artists' view of what people do with their work is really no different than ancaps with the NAP. "If everyone behaved themselves and completely suspended human nature, my personal ideology would work!" Even Bill Watterson understood that playing whack-a-mole with the pissing Calvin bumper stickers was a waste of time.
     
     I know a lot of them watermark to try to avoid AI training and such, but the ironic thing is you can inpaint watermarks and end up with a passable facsimile.

     @Ronnie21093 @poopernova All sites will die one day. Pixiv will eventually stop hosting images, and there's a chance he may no longer have them all stored on his drive when that day comes. It's already extremely difficult to obtain most images on Twitter, never mind the fact said images are often hyper-compressed by the site. Personal archives can die at a moments notice, and that's if those with a personal archive are ever even willing to share. An artist fighting against archival is welcoming oblivion, wishing to be forgotten with the flow of time. :flan_yea:

     @poopernova "NOOOOOOOO, you can't archive my art somewhere else after I post it online! Fuck you, I'm going to nuke all of my work!" Ironically proving why we need art archiving in the first place.
