The site is a mess and unusable since the new layout launched. There is so much unnecessary empty space especially on a deviation page (with mobile version at least). I wanted to start over with a new account back in early 2019 and I was getting noticed until the Eclipse update came and ruined my opportunity. Barely anybody views my works now and it’s honestly disheartening. It’s why I quit this site. I lost hope it will ever improve when they give us useless updates like fragments. MAYBE something forced them to launch it too early??? The groups aren’t touched for crying out loud. But aside from the update, it’s very easy to get caught up in drama, harassment, trolling, stalking, and sex bots yet staff does little to nothing to fix it. Controversial topics will get you banned for "hate speech" or at the very least, censored: they are biased against centrists and conservatives with the censorship and banning those who did nothing wrong. The other part is total lack of exposure if your art isn’t fanart or doesn’t fit the majority’s standards. Besides that, extensive customization and ease of navigation were the best aspects of the website. There’s no longer a reason for coding and the HTML community to exist on that site because it’s been ridden of. It’s obvious that team doesn’t care about its user base. It’s been several months now and the site is still a huge bundle of mess as it is. DA was dying and Eclipse killed it. The site should be renamed to Eclipse as it is because it purged our sunshine. Screw this website.
