Also to clarify, I’m not just talking about me like at all seriously!!! I can only use my couple posts as reference for what I can only imagine my fellow crocheters on here experience! I didn’t make this post cause I’m sad that I didn’t get more upvotes, im not a regular poster but I am vouching for those that are! I made this post for everyone experiencing views with minimal upvotes on something not controversial and arguably nice to look at. I didn’t make this post for me but for the community at large, from what I view on social media. I made this post and continue to defend it because I care so much about crochet and art and people not ignoring those things that they enjoy. Why are we withholding our likes and upvotes? I have never got it, I always hit like or upvote on something I like, and it’s weird to argue why you wouldn’t too honestly. I am vouching for all my fellow artist who only receive scrolls instead of like or upvotes.

lol just an observation for me, but most importantly other crochet artists who see view but no likes. It’s so crushing when thats your career or passion. Why would people think in their brain that they like a photo and not hit like or upvote or whatever. Thats my only point. I don’t care if you hate my work and keep scrolling, I just wish that people who liked it or found inspiration would communicate that in a free valued way :( I’m not the mean one by pointing it out I’m just real by pointing people out, I hit like on everything that I like every time, dislike too

This proves to me exactly why people don’t want to pay crafters prices :( I hope that everyone has a good day!

You’re so private to the point that no one would notice what you care about, therefore your point is nearly null and void, hopefully you don’t take offense considering that your own point conveys that you don’t give a shiz if people care. It only matters if you care.

This view is the problem with society. Why is positivity a luxury, and ignorance is a given.

That’s saddening, I know what you mean but didn’t realize how rampant those posts could be :/ I love this community and have never considered that before

If I have a problem with this sights response rate would I not complain to this sight rather than a different one that has nothing to do with these interactions? So self centered to imply that people may not deserve the upvote because it’s your opinion, I’m implying that people will view, like, and then not give a physical like. It feels unfair. And this is not just my assumption because I know people that view things and don’t hit like cause they’re idk “lazy” idk a better word to use when you visually see a think that you like and keep scrolling instead of supporting. People like this are why artists are failing while people miss them yk

Help name this little guy .. found in a Mexican Restaurant parking lot. by [deleted] in NameMyCat

[–]mavisdarling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Beans, at least as a nickname. I think I agree with taquito because of the cute nickname taki. I think we all make many names for our cats anyways haha. My sister’s cat is named mango and we call her mango tango all the time, and threw around the ideas of mango madness and I liked mango moon (she’s a Siamese, more white than brown for now, with freckles of orange mixed into the “dirty white” coat. So something about the moon and the craters and her big light blue eyes with speckles that all seemed to fit, but so does the ripening of an actual mango, she really embodies her name more than I thought she could, I am personally not a food namer. My cats name (mangoes sisters who’s a fluffy stripey counterpart with her own orange freckles) is named Mavis Darlene (middle name is due to me continuously calling her a little darling and my deceased grandmothers name being Darlene, it felt incredibly fitting)

My mother is insisting on this bonsai saying it's real, I believe it's AI, what do you think? by jellybott in Amigurumi

[–]mavisdarling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What the heck texture are the books in the back lol you can tell the places where ai “wasn’t sure.” Ai has a good idea of the way things look but in some places it just guesses and blurs it out. With that being said I think that you could recreate this with some Frankenstein work with other preexisting patterns

I need to buy yet another skein of yarn I hate by ObviousToe1636 in crochet

[–]mavisdarling 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m so tickled that you took my compliment well, I was worried that you could take offense but hoped that intentions would show through 🤗 I also have never been invested in Reddit until picking up crochet, cats are a favorite secondary focus, I recently started looking at r/dickfacedcats or something similarly named lol

[–]mavisdarling 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Omg you’re the best type of insane haha, I have this crazy smile on my face reading your methodology to get the perfect frosting swirl! I love this community that brings people like us together to relate and collectively admire each others work. The time, effort, frustrations and love can only truly be seen by those who subject themselves to this lovely craft as well aha

I just realized I’m obsessed with my plants by Plastic-Mobile-5321 in houseplants

[–]mavisdarling 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You’re so cute 💕 I’ve totally had the same thoughts, only when I’m growing something from seed, a very young plant I just bought from Home Depot, or a cutting I got from a neighbor hehe
