It's similar to DA, but it's more Instagram like than DeviantArt. I think this style of posting photos is decent enough but I'll be sure to hop on a DeviantArt-like if it ever does come up
i'm looking for a da-like thing too. my preferred site would be a mix of that and tumblr. something that can work as a archive/gallery and blog. i dont like the mechanics of twit/fb/insta but clones of those are mostly what i seem to find.
ohh I'd love that! dA was amazing back in the day, but they went down a path I didn't like and I haven't done anything there for ages. Most, if not all, the communities I was a member of have died and it's now more of a homage to the golden days of when I started web design and design in general, for me at least.
Indeed. Since you aren't limited to posting in only 1 place, and can change your mind at any time, posting on kbin seems like a wholesome start. If someone creates a great art-centric site later on, you can switch over as needed.
I've looked around a bit, and haven't seen any place with the amount of submissions that deviant art used to have, or the quality level of artstation. So far I tend to enjoy mastadon the most for art, even though it's not a big community. And I mainly check out artstation once a week for my fix of sci-fi, fantasy, concept art etc.
It's been a long time since I've hung out on DA, but Instagram is a mobile-first experience. It looks and feels like it wants to be a mobile app tied directly into a cell phone's camera. The web experience is... It would be generous to call it "secondary".
DeviantArt, at least as I remember it being, is more gallary-like. More... horizontal.
