@Kittyzilla: I hate how many dogs are mistreated.

I had to check out the new announcement on Mene myself.
『The avatar sites are all slowly hitting their EOL after activity drop years ago I guess.
I think most of them it's because they were almost always someone's passion project. And They were built with code that was probably hard to maintain and move into the mobile era without a lot of rework that just didn't seem doable/worth it on a passion project as life moved on. It's sad but not wholly unsurprising.

I was on Mene for over 10 years before it started to collapse. It makes me sad.
All forum based sites do not seem as popular nowadays.
Younger users have other places to go. The internet is a lot bigger than when I first joined Gaia. It's kind of a niche thing now
Yeah, sometimes it feels like there is not enough time in the day to do everything.
I am seeing some pushback on big social media sites, especially with artists that are fed up with trying to work around algorithms. I hope smaller sites get a little more love
There are so many different sites out there. It does make it harder to pop in on them all from time to time.
Voltra is my comfy home site.
『Younger users are definitely more used to the discord style chat over forums. But I feel like with a few tweaks to make it mobile friendly and a little more instant load-in (like the inline post notification voltra put in on here) it wouldn't be that hard to draw them in anyway. There's still a valid draw to a community that stays with you more long term instead of a random game that kind of exists on it's own.

Oh no! I haven’t been there in a while but that’s still sad.
Fudge I don’t remember my password. >.<

I would love to start my own avatar site, just because I have so many ideas and I think it would be fun. (Lots of work but fun)
But I’m not a coder or really an artist so I’d only be the writer/idea perfect and that’s not the best team for starting a site. XD

Yeah, Discord is really easy to manage and post photos directly to rather than needing them uploaded on a site first.
I too have had many ideas for an avatar site, but I don't see it coming together. Not a coder either.
Right!? I have so much lore and holidays and stuff in my head, and no where to put it all

I keep lists going on my Evernote.
That’s a good idea
I should write things down myself

Find me @ PlayWithErica on instagram, twitch, youtube, and discord.
It is super helpful to me. I love keeping notes and having them all organized into the different folders really helps me!
I am currently working on Halloween party ideas, decorations, and food.
