ChatGPT and other AI services are basically killing @Iconfactory and I'm not exaggerating or being hyperbolical.

First Twitter/Elon killed our main app revenue that kept the lights on around here, then generative AI exploded to land a final blow to design revenue.

I've recently gotten into "alternative process" printing. I built my own UV exposure box and have started with cyanotypes (the easiest, cheapest, least toxic alt-printing method). Are there any good photo printing/alt-printing hashtags/accounts I should follow on the fediverse? (Boosts for visibility are appreciated!)
