The problem with bsky is the lack of engagement, The post about W1 from 2 days ago got 2 likes and 0 replies here. I posted the same on r/witcher one day later and already have 1200 upvotes and 100+ replies that greatly lifted my mood and some that made me crack.
I mean, that's normal because you obviously posted in a Witcher themed medium. If you only want fandom engagement, I'm sure that's the place to go.
Well, I do like that I can post stuff that would interest a specific audience precisely to them and engage with them. I post about rocks, fossils, nature/wildlife, movies, shows, and games. 80+% of what I post is Witcher, but no matter what it is, it always finds the right people.
Yeah, if you're happy there that's awesome! Never been on Reddit other than to find people have been talking about fics of mine there 😂 But if I'd try to get into it now it would definitely be hard, that's normal. I have a multi-interest blog on Tumblr and shitpost there. :)
If bsky doesn't work out I'll try tumblr for a month. Astaldis assured me that the real Witcher fans are on bsky and tumblr, so I want to give it a shot.
the fans of the show are mostly on tumblr, because on reddit most people hate the show. I guess for the Witcher game fans and book fans, reddit is still a good place.
Hmm, I know rather few show fans. Every kind of fan is on Tumblr, depends on the bubble 😀
Yes! You find all kinds of witcher fans on tumblr. What I like a lot better on tumblr than reddit is that there's a lot more art. But show fans are very rare on reddit and there's only very scarce news about the show there. That's what @realmachiavelli and I were discussing if I remember correctly
Yes, that was the discussion we were having. I'm also not a show fan. At least I haven't been since S2, but Im not a hater either, and I still watch it and occasionally post and comment on it.
and who knows, maybe S4 will be fantastic. Or maybe it won't, but I need a release date! 😭😭😭
That is so true! Netflix has to get their act together!
...I'm not into kinkshaming or yuking peoples yum, but if its 80% not for me I loose interest in scrolling.
I somehow get a lot more art, especially from fandoms that I don't know, here than on tumblr. Maybe you just hadn't found the right people and tags to follow yet?
I don't follow that many tags yet, and I haven't used starter pack either. Any suggestions?
Yes, I initially made a tumblr account to follow people who had posted Witcher art on Reddit but after browsing around a bit I found that the art I like finds its way to Reddit eventually, a lot of it didn't interest me. ....
Yeah, dunno who the real witcher fans are but hey, I'm here :)
