Just found out my art got 500 views on a site I forgot I posted to
I was cleaning up my bookmarks and found a link to my old ArtStation page (I haven't logged in for maybe two years). Clicked it and saw one of my old character designs had over 500 views, which is way more than I ever got on my main socials back then. It was a nice little surprise, like finding a forgotten five dollar bill in a coat pocket. Has anyone else had a piece quietly do better on a platform you weren't really using?

Had a sketch from 2018 sitting on my old DeviantArt. Checked it last month and it had like 300 favorites out of nowhere. Turns out someone with a big following had shared it in a "underrated artists" thread. Felt pretty wild, like the work was just doing its own thing without me. Makes you wonder how many other old posts are just quietly getting passed around.

That "forgotten five dollar bill" feeling is so real. I used to think if I wasn't actively promoting a piece, it was just sitting there dead. Finding an old piece getting quiet views like that totally changed my mind. It's a nice little boost.
