I have a basic etiquette question that I haven't been able to find an answer to. My apology for any redundancy.

As an AI artist, which I know is a bit controversial itself, I do like to share pieces I've created. I've been doing this on instagram (https://www.instagram.com/shadowsonawall/ if content would affect the answer) and wonder if sharing here might not be the better long-term option.

The question then: is it rude to use the server's hard drive space for my art? Is there a limit of images that is considered polite/tolerable? Is this a bad idea from the outset?

@tetrislife I've done this many times for friends/family. In the community at large though the language becomes something of an intentional gate: you aren't part of the group if you don't speak crypto. Unfortunate, in my opinion, but unavoidably human.

@art_zdesiseitsas it's incredibly good. I particularly like the bloody red rags/curtain opposite her hair (which looks great). I wish there was less shine on her lower back though. It pulls my eye too strongly, almost hiding the gorgeous details of the piece overall. Amazing though, very glad I stumbled into it! :)

@Nette@c18.masto.host that's a pretty dramatic shift in policy! What was the cultural driver there?
