feedback culture has rly died on here for content creators tbh

Gradually, it’s been declining, but i feel that right around the 1st few months of this year is when it rly took a huge plunge

Not only have i noticed this w my own art and stuff, but a lot of friends who create stuff have noted similar things. even popular artists and writers who used to get 5k+ notes per post are only getting a couple hundred. I used to get abt 800 per post and now im lucky if i break 50. 90% likes to 10% rbs.

Ppl say u shouldnt create just for the attention but damn spending HOURS on smth and getting little to no feedback when u used to get a decent amount is shit

This goes for fic authors too. We don’t get reviews much anymore, people just hit the kudos button and call it good.

Please leave feedback on creative content guys. Its super important.

Even if you just say nice things in the tags, anything would be nice.

I was hesitant to reblog this because I didn’t want it to look like I was begging for attention or something, but this is pretty real, guys. 

Seeing tags, knowing people really are interested and want others to see your stuff too, it keeps your spirits up when you’re unsure of your work. All types of artists are obviously thrilled and grateful to receive likes, but feedback is essential on a social platform and for growth.

I get kudos on my work, but feedback is rare and it is what so many live off of. It’s a huge moral boost to even see something as simple as “good job!” or “I love it!”. It doesn’t need to be an essay of what you like, or don’t like, about a story. Just a little something to show you liked it, or tips on how to improve. It’s all welcomed and loved.

This is a huge problem when it comes to fanfic, I get so many kudos/likes, but little to no comments or feedback. Even something as simple as “FSJFJJDKDKD” puts a smile on my face and encourages me to keep writing. Please, just comment something if you like a fanfic, you have no idea how much it means to creators.
