I don’t understand what’s with making apps and social media complicated, twitter is like garbage without paying 8$, instagram only runs on reels, 0 reach and here with all the tipping and stuff I’m super confused 😭
 I hate that my art life has to depend on this crappy apps😤

I understand what you mean; you are referring to the visibility of your art rather than its essence. I believe that the life of our art, that is, the process of research and production, as well as the experience of it, which we certainly cannot delegate solely to the virtual world, should not and does not depend on any factor other than our passion and willingness to create on a specific topic that stimulates our interest.
I think the issue of visibility is separate from that of production.

Regarding the necessity of sharing our work online, it's true that social networks can be a quick way to reach a new audience, but I don't think it's strictly necessary to have a constant presence on one or more social networks to reach a truly interested audience.

From my personal experience, I can say that efforts to create events or meetings in real life have been more fruitful in terms of building an audience and reaching people useful for the dissemination of my projects (editors, curators, critics, colleagues, etc.) compared to efforts made on social networks.

Moreover, looking at the last two or three years and the dissemination of art within the web3/NFT space, I am even more inclined to think that enormous efforts on social networks to build an audience do not correspond to the expected results.

Ultimately, finding the right balance between digital and real-world engagement I think is the key.

Appreciate sharing perspectives on this topic.
