our problems with Deviantart
it's been more than 3 years since everyone in Deviantart is forced to use Eclipse, I has been 15 years in deviantart where during my journey as Deviantart member, I notice it's downhill(in contrast to my development into better person) as the time goes and here's my gripe with Deviantart throughout my journey there:
- Cyberbullying: I has been bullied by those like HTFSocial Regulars(notably Innocent-darkside), Gtjerwp/SafeInternetProtocol/BasedAnon49, Ericgl1996(for myself preferring Orange Island season of Pokemon Anime over current one), and so on. even when I block one of them(SafeInternetProtocol), he coaxed me to unblock him through his youtube comment in Hitler video I made over TVtropes rejecting my Mega-crossover Magnum-opus from their site, and I fell to him there, and then there's worst days ever in internet(or at least here in deviantart) for me where this continued to even SafeInternetProtocol's block-evading. worse the Deviantart staff's incompetence makes me abstains from reporting even this(likely under the fear of they bans people like me instead), and this come to play on resorting to making Online Petition to fight off SafeInternetProtocol(this can get explained here:https://deviantart.com/comments/1/717326631/4825392644).
- Premium membership become core membership that costs more and has less features(this makes me allowing this expire for better or worse) than vanilla premium membership, worse, there's increasing amount of things that used to be free for anyone that use deviantart become paywalled behind core
- spambots, such as ones that hijacked old accounts to randomly fave our posts there
- old things from our childhood are forgotten there
- Fill-in memes become more popular than anything drawn from scratch that posted in deviantart
- current deviantart being Internet's ghost town

- and so on(including deviantart's mods over-reliance on automation)
