I'm originally from Tumblr, like many others in my situation coming to this site. When Tumblr closed the doors on me, I had to begin a new journey to find an art site that I could call home.
I was invited to FurAffinity by some friends who knew my plight, but as an artist very new to that community it has been very difficult fitting in.
I made friends on discord who encouraged me to join Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter but those sites make me so tired.
I remember when the doors closed that NewGrounds (my old childhood lurking grounds) had welcomed us with open arms, but at the time I was too scared that maybe the community didn't want all these Tumblr users showing up all of the sudden. It's been a year now, and I hope that invitation is still open for slowpokes like me.
The last year trying to find a website I could call home has been really hard on me, and I've been really scared that one day there will no-longer be a place for me as an artist. I hope that NewGrounds can be that place I can call home.
