Monthly report for September is out!

davidrevoy.com/article1180/mon

I'm sharing making-of and behind-the-scenes stories, unpublished visuals, and news about all my background projects. I also share (as usual, without paywall) high-resolution images, timelapses, brushes, layered files, tutorials, hardware reviews and more on my websites.

Thank you for all the comments and your amazing support!

Screenshot of a modal windows from my Facebook Page when I tried to post, preventing me to post it. The symbol of a link, with a warning on top.
It reads:

I couldn't post my monthly update on the Facebook page because apparently, now I can post only 2 external links per month...

Monetizing external links, what a shame, Meta. :rblobglare:

@davidrevoy So next post is
"
from now on you can find me here: <link>
bye!
"
🤭?

@fabiscafe I think if I do a link like that, it will be shadow ban.

My regular external links were already shadowban anyway... they keep only the comics.

I'll find something to communicate to my followers (around 16K on it)

Then do a comic with a farewell, use ai-fenced font in the bubbles, and tell the story of some metaeuthanized soul that goes into the datacenter inferno to swap bits in the authenticators so villains can access their golem anymore, than set those golem to find a way to destroy all who pushed it to the misery of working agains human artists...

@ohir @fabiscafe That's indeed an experiment to do. On my 16K followers over there, maybe 3 to 4k are active when see the stats on my post. I don't want to leave them this way without a notice or an alternative... that's sure.

@davidrevoy @ohir @fabiscafe There's your blog if they don't want to sign up to anything else.

For the RL people, maybe a Signal group would be a solution?

@davidrevoy @framapiaf.org

@gunchleoc @ohir @fabiscafe Yes, probably. But I discussed with these users: they really don't have the basics of browsing the web, or searching something, or learning the new user interface of a blog. We, advanced user, don't even think anymore about all of that, but for them; facebook = internet. They did learn it, and now everything else require a too expensive cognitive effort, something that make them tired only thinking about it (fear to fail, fear to not adapt). It's complicated.

@davidrevoy @ohir @fabiscafe
one final exclusive comic for meta, or your followers there, telling them where to find you...

@TripTilt @ohir @fabiscafe Yes, it can work with a special font that prevent text recognition, so the algorithm has no idea how to read it. Or a crypted message for humans (using speechbubbles with only symbols). I'll think about it a lot on the next days.
