I've stayed at that crappy site for 14 years then I stopped visiting the site because they've released their own AI that used Stable Diffusion which also broke their own ToS.

Leaving DA is painful because I've gained followers there, and a lot of people liked my fanarts whenever I post one. I thought I would reach at least 1K followers and 100k pageviews so I can continue my hobby to draw my characters and draw commissions or fanarts.

Maybe dreaming big is hard, and likely I will never reach that. I have to start from the beginning once again for the third time... I've been so down lately, if not for about 4 months now. I've been depressed, stressed, and very anxious and even wanting to give up hope sometimes as I have to climb my way up again.

And what's even pissed me off is this person named Shawn at DeviantArt even made my life worse. Let's cut to the chase that telling me _"originality is dead"_ is nothing but shits he says, then blocked me for that and told him that his OC needed to be change as I suggested it. If you try looking at his OC... it's a rip-off character from a copyrighted character, mostly Dante from DMC and if it is AI art, it's a rip-off of Leon from Resident Evil.

Anyway, I don't want to make the story long about it. So he told me that originality is dead but he is now using AI degenerators to make his OC. We all know that AI won't exist without our artworks that is fed in the machine. He gained followers and pageviews because he uploads ridiculous AI art crap for his own personal gain.

When that happened, I feel like he had backstabbed me and thought that he is way better than me... I spent my life drawing as I study and learn on my own. I didn't even graduated because of high tuitions. Both him and AI have crushed me together as if like I'm a tiny ant that is easy to kill and step on. Honestly... I wanted to end my life as I grew tired of it. I feel worthless and unaccomplished together. I decided to join Inkblot to see what kind of path I will have here whether, I don't know what lies ahead of me here but I hope I will be recognized and respected at least, and hopefully to improve my art overtime as I stay here.

I've been driven away by DA as they supported AI art. I hope they get shutdown for betraying artists, and I hope this person who told me that originality is dead gets karma.
