>>139045490>As a creator, if you see a project fail but no one tells you what you're doing wrong it's incredibly frustrating.On the one hand, it is. On the other hand, it can also depend on the social media spaces you use and just where exactly you reach out for feedback to begin with. A lot of art communities on Twitter/Tumblr/Instagram are very 'safe' with their feedback and at best you'll get things like two asspat positive comments sandwiching a tiny negative comment (there's literally a ""guide"" on Twitter about how to formulate constructive critique that looks like this). If you surround yourself with yes-men fans or employees who don't want to rock the boat, you're unlikely to get a lot of constructive critique. On the other other hand, reaching out to places like 4chan means you have to separate the wheat from the chaff, you can get helpful negative feedback, unhelpful negative feedback, more unhelpful positive feedback, or "lol add coombait unga jerk me dicky"
