I remember when this thread was about reminiscing on artists from years ago that drifted off, not panicking that someone might DNP because they haven’t posted for a month or deactivated an account somewhere.
It’s not about appreciating the work someone did, but yelling “save everything!” because it’s only their art what matters. Painfully clear it’s their work that matters, not their person. And that’s probably why so many decide to leave and wipe it all on the way out.
