I've been a part of the art community for 2.5 years on X & now here for a few months, & I can tell you with certainty that artists on @farcaster are at a crossroads. Best case 1: There's some foundational shift where the fc ecosystem elevates these "quality content" creators & they can have a meaningful existence here. Best Case 2: They go explore Lens or maybe back to X (where despite the algo, they get some recognition for their art from their peers). Worst case: They get disenchanted with web3 altogether because they've been scammed, rugged, ignored, reduced to a number & pretty much treated like second class citizens regardless of where they exist. I worry about this the most. Irony 1: The art community is the most vibrant community any social community can have. We literally have generational talent hanging out amongst us & most of us are unaware. Irony 2: Artists who are here are the most tech forward of the normie bunch we'd wanna onboard. Biggest assets for any social platform. 1/2 🧵

If we recognize them, what can we do to truly support them?

engage. Artists feed off engagement. Like their art, ask them a question, compliment. That'll do a lot more than we think it would.

This This This! I appreciate every comment, every piece of feedback, and (ofc) every tip! But even without tips, just getting any kind of engagement is enough encouragement to keep sharing and trying to grow. I was really hoping that FC/WC would be somewhere artists could thrive, but it feels like collectors aren't here and a lot of us got distracted by the tipping and don't even support each other enough just commenting on each other's art, especially some of the ones that are higher FIDs who have the reach and power to uplift others.
