@gen_illustrates's post on Artfol
College kid and a self-taught artist residing in the little red dot Hello all! I just started this account and man, this app will take some time to get used to after using ig for so long lolol. But so far really liking how it's so easy to connect with other fellow artists with this text function!
Also ig low key feels like it's a number competition but here seems more chill so really liking that too.
Just curious, artfol VS instagram, what are your thoughts?
Edit: so far there's ~90% consensus that artfol > ig

Artfol all the way. I feel like itβs so hard to keep up with insta. I do want artfol to add a video or multiple slides function, but yeah def artfol. Itβs more relaxed, thereβs not so much emphasis on the numbers, and I feel like I can actually connect with other artists.

I don't feel scared or just generally uncomfy posting things to responding to people on here

β’artfol so far is SOOOO much better than insta. theres a more positive vibe here and itβs easier to form genuine connections and not worry abt numbers and likes. i can wait for this app to become bigger and have faster loading times. i can definitely see more artist completely dropping insta for artfol

β’Artfol when I need a mental checkup from Instagram. Iβm so happy to find a group of dope people who have the same interest!

β’i like artfol more and now that Instagram keeps crashing when I try to post I don't even use it. i swear Instagram is so glitchy, it used to restart my whole phone... even in the slow beta days artfol was low-key better

β’Literally everyone has said Artfol and I 100% agree! Insta is a horrible place. The artists I follow are all chill tho (other than one who mentions his new thousand follows every few days
)

β’Artfol, being able to engage with other people is so fun and I just enjoy talking with other artists. I only rlly post on ig cause i have friends there and some dont use artfol
β’
β’artfol all the way, itβs so chill and thereβs a very supportive community, each piece of art gets an equal opportunity for attention, and the texting feature is an amazing way to connect and make it feel more comfy

β’Artfol for sure. I love just how you can conect more without any restrictions. You can comment as much as you wish to, like and share and also just to find some new inspo as well. As for Instagram it can kiss my booty, the algorithm completely messed me up and now I am doing everything I can just to save my account.

β’Artfol 100% - Instagram just sucks and the algorithm is really discouraging. I do like some of the people there, but there are also a bunch of scammers/bots. The Artfol community is so far really nice and I love the things like "questions" and "critique"!
