I apologize if this journal is hard to read.
When I first joined Deviantart, the front page had dozens of new uploads every second. Today, the front page has new deviations maybe every few hours.
When Deviantart Eclipse was first announced, signing up for it was optional. The deviants I followed that used it mostly had the same complaint: it was buggy and hard to use. Come 2020, the old interface was no longer available. One feature the old interface had was categories. If I wanted to download brushes or read fanfiction, I didn’t need to type in that many keywords. Eclipse doesn’t have this feature and DA is harder to navigate. Eclipse was one of several decisions that made many DA users move on to greener pastures. And I’m tired of the DA Staff not listening to us.
There’s something else I’m considering: I want to start over. This is something I’ve thought about for years. I’ve made decisions I’m not proud of under my old username, DFdirector and I have too many negative memories. I also don’t like this username because I was 13 when I made it. What this means for me is that I will create a new username, but I will not share it with anyone.
The only thing I can think of using this account for is to continue following people who still create webcomics and literature on here.
I will set all of my brushes and patterns to free.
