ive like totally bailed on social media (unless patreon counts) so the fact that you have your own website has been the sole reason that ive been able to keep up with your art. i actually find it kinda fun to jump around multiple sites checking for updates, so in a wierd way i personally would preffer the public posts dont go on patreon. buuut i know im an outlier and its not something i actually feel that stongly about.

Hell, isn't that why we're all here? :)

Please also consider the Fediverse (Mastadon or Pixelfed), or at the very least bridging your Bluesky account so we can access it - requires no maintenance on your part! https://fed.brid.gy

Luna

Yes please! That would be great!

Would love to see the public posts here too. And thank you for posting on bsky, it has been nice to still have your posts after I left had twitter.

I think if you posted them as free posts to patreon, people could disable "other posts" in the creator-specific notification settings while leaving "new paid posts" on. That should solve the spam issue, right?

You had public stuf??? I didn't know I was just missing a ton of your content!

Technisonix

YES. I’ve been wanting this for so long, I always hate missing your public stuff when you don’t get recommended in my timelines 🥺

Welcome to Heaven

Oh yeah, I def don't blame artists/content creators who depend on those sites for income for not leaving. NSFW creators especially don't really have a lot of places to go, so it's understandable. It just sucks that they have to deal with being on such toxic sites to survive :'I Good on you, though, and I hope you don't have to see as much foolishness anymore :D

I'm sure the important stuff's already been said, but thanks for caring about it ! I finally deleted Xitter and intagram yesterday, which will sadly make me lose a few artists I followed, but at this point I can't justify staying on there any longer while their ceo are busy being fascists (and I can understand, some artists still need the visibility a bigger plateform like xitter has, so I'm not necessarly mad at them, because they also still have to make a living, but yeah, it's obviously a big plus when they choose to care abou the value the plateform they're on choose to hold). Hopefully I'll be able to delete Fb soon as well (got some contacts I have to figure out how to keep in touch with outside of it). Can't say I'll be done with all of it, too many folks are on whatsapp to leave it, but at least I'm doing something. So I'm super down for artists I like to do the same ! And honestly, pretty sure it can only be a good thing even on your hand to have another plateform where your art is, in case shit happens.

Welcome to Heaven

You're so right about everything! I'm staying away from all the apps of the CEOs who were at the inauguration (TikTok, Meta, Instagram, Threads, etc. I might have to ditch Tumblr in the future, bc I definitely don't trust Matt Mullenweg to protect trans people. On Twitter, I think I'll try to get my followers to move to better sites like Bluesky by privating my account & posting censored art). Hate will fester & explode in these spaces if they're not properly moderated. Erin in the Morning is def a great resource for information 🌈☁️ Also, ahh, thank you so, so much >///< I just do my best & try to spread my personal values through my art & don't worry, I'm doing what I love.

I've stopped visiting reddit and bluesky because honestly my heart rips itself in two any time I see a news article these days. Which, yeah, I know that's not necessarily good to keep myself in the dark, but my job already has me looking this shit in the face every day. So having all of your stuff here too would be very nice

Ginger and cute

The more email notifications with your art the better as far as I'm concerned!

ChocolateSapphic

I think you should only stick to Reddit, Patron, Substack and Blue Sky would be good Heaven. I think you should move away from not using Facebook, Tik Tok or Instagram and only focus on Social Media Platforms that clearly aren't bias and have leadership trying to further hurt LGBTQIA+ People in the process or other minorities in question as well. And FYI, for anyone who is in the US and wants to follow/better understand news on US LGBTQIA+ stuff, follow Erin in the Morning where she releases updates on a map she created on US LGBTQIA+ Safety Maps every other month and is doing articles breaking down what's going on with the Executive Orders that the New US Presidential Administration is doing and whatever we may deal with as Project 2025 unfortunately starts in the US Anyways, moving back to brighter topics, I just want to say Heaven, you're are one of the inspirational people within the Transgender Community and LGBTQIA+, due to how wholesome your art has made me as someone who is BIPOC and others feeling seen, valued and actually know how it's like for us to feel like actually humans who participate in SFW or NSFW situations depending on the comic, and not as a p0rn category (fetishing our identity which there are some sick people in the world still do) which makes me feel valid and helps with my dysphoria a lot and I am sure it's a similar story with other people that is apart of your audience/subscribers as well Heaven. I hope you never change who you are Heaven, in not leading yourself towards burn out/overworked yourself creating LGBTQIA+ art and content for us and just thank you for being a awesome person.

Old Dragon

Yes, please.

Eleesehn

I would love for it to be posted here, as well as say bluesky, if that's an option ❤️ thank you for the poll!

ibuprofen

One option to keep down notifications would be to collect public posts into a single patreon post e.g. monthly. But honestly I don't think spam is an issue.

Earl Ratliff

We adore your work and are happy to see it.

tbodt

Please please post it here! I don't check any of those social media (just mastodon) so patreon emails would enable me to keep up with everything

Welcome to Heaven

Oh, that's what I'm doing, don't worry! :'D It'll be a combo of public (free) posts and paid posts in the feed.

Ivan

you could definitely make those public too. I follow multiple creators at this point for their open for everyone posts, in the hope to soon sign up for the paid posts if I have money. If they're public people can also just follow here without paying to follow stuff, and already on the platform I'm sure people are more likely to end up as paid followers.

Lera B

Yeah I'd much rather only check Patreon rather than also refreshing your website each time 😶‍🌫️

Aerith G

As i'm more and more prone to boycott twitter considering lgbt+ treatment, i'd say either post public on blusky, or here, but twitter should fll in oblivion. Love your art sooooo much, so wholesome <3

Uncreative Anonymous Name

Please do! I got signed out of twitter months ago and havent had the heart to sign back in

AuroraRainbow

I'd love to see you on fediverse instead of twitter :3 I follow your websites rss, but I wouldn't have anything against the public art on here as well

DokoDokoNe

I would kind of prefer them to be separated, as I already follow you on both Twitter and Bluesky, but it seems I'm very, very outvoted lol. That's okay 🙂

Mer

Same!

Elliana May

Yeah I think you can set various posts to be exclusive to various levels or open access

TJ

That would be excellent. Yes, please!

Morpheus

That's an overwhelming yes haha

Welcome to Heaven

Good idea! I'll try to remember to add an "exclusive" tag to relevant posts 😊 I feel like there's probably a built-in Patreon filter for that, but it doesn't hurt to be more accessible.

Lily

I would love to have all your art here! Especially when using the tags to filter down to what kind of art looking for - eg being able to see all Sasha/Emma in one place really easily!

Zaktreas

I'm gonna be honest, like 99% of the reason I still use Twitter is to keep up with your public posts. Having them here would be great.

Angel

I believe she's already on bluesky

Art3mis

Personally I'd love having notifications for all of your comics, whether they are exclusive or not :3 Need more wholesome cuteness <3

Mer

I vote yes! You don't post so often where the notifications would be annoying, and I like knowing when you post a new comic (I also don't go on social media super often, so it would be nice to not miss something). And I think you can change notification frequency of patreon? But don't quote me on that 😅

Elliana May

Would probably be good if you tagged it appropriately as well? So we could filter down to the exclusive stuff if we wanted

Stephen Cooper

A few extra emails and a loss of specialness feels like a small price to pay. I find myself relying too much on the algorithm to bring your latest, and it would be awesome to just have it all in one place (and would almost certainly drive traffic to your paid tiers once you get eyeballs here)

Libra

I use your site's rss feed to keep up with your public art, but I would certainly be in favor of it getting posted here as well.

Pendorbound

Yes please! I absolutely adore your work, but I’m rubbish at remembering to refresh the several tabs I have open for your sites. I’d *love* to get notifications here when you post and not just the exclusive stuff.
