@acoldmocha's post on Artfol
Do you keep posts that are outdated or keep them? Any particular reason?
After finally getting my account back months later, I’ve realised how contrasting the characters are. And I don’t know if I should keep them or just delete them as they’re outdatedSep 19, 2022

If it goes on it stays on I say. I’ve got a tally going on with them so it would be weird if I missed a number

I keep everything. They serve as a landmark of the past and shows how I've grown as an artist.

I keep the old stuff, I think it's good to show people that timeline cause it could also inspire other artists who were like me and felt bad about their art! Sometimes I post older art of my characters to show both how much I've grown as an artist and how much my characters have changed with me (≧▽≦)

You all are awesome. Honestly I’m grateful you’ve all responded and gave me reasons aswell. As of right now I’ve hidden then until I have more posts. Thank you so much.
•
I also agree with all the previous comments :> If i have to delete works everytime I improve/change artstyle I think I would constantly delete things.
•
Seeing old art is part of having a gallery. It shows your growth and progress and provides a variety of posts to look at.
•
same as the previous two comments, plus i honestly don’t care enough my art or my “image” i guess to bother deleting anything
•
Same as bdttras said, I like to see it as a form of progress. At times I like to look at my old stuff and I feel very nostalgic, not only for the art itself, but also for all the stuff that has to do with such piece, like the people I met when I made the drawing, the stuff that I was doing at the time, the places I've been, etc.
•
I generally like to to keep my old stuff as a sort of marker, to see my progress in thoughts and skills over time.
