The hilarious greed and audacity of deviantart to expect users to PAY them so they can take a larger fee from their sales than even paypal does.

Don't buy into this, y'all. This is highway robbery, just use paypal, square, cashapp, literally anything else.

ga(y)tor 🐊 I've honestly been a defender for some time, and have continued to use the platform despite its blatant issues. Now though, I feel like I need to just call it quits. This feels like borderline money laundering with how much they're taking. It's not even close to worth it.

ga(y)tor 🐊 Even if I was never going to use this site's awful forms of payment, I feel I can't support a platform that treats artists like they're machines and end up still taking so much away. There are no benefits to joining core by now.

@the_mayocat I feel this is all WiX's vision here, and I feel that's going to be its downfall.
