Or they'll delete your entire art account you've been using for over a decade because one user reported you aren't you. Insta killed my account for "violating guidelines" and impersonating myself apparently. At least I don't have to deal with Threads now, but R.I.P. my creative drive since then.

This is the biggest risk of centralized platforms in my opinion, it's too easy to get mysteriously banned and lose access to years worth of content with no recourse. Good luck getting a human customer service agent who is actually equipped to help you.

Yeah, they're too big to help anyone that isn't a top earner for them. I'd like to self host a Lemmy instance for art but, my ISP sucks and I'm running low on motivation these days.
