Yep. I'm a patron of Elk and it's always disheartening to see them ask everyone to boost it on reddit. I understand it's their best platform, but it'd be nice for other platforms to also be utilized. I mostly just don't see Pizzacake anymore unless I open instagram.

Oh man, Hollering Elk, that's another I sorely miss. She's fucking epic.

In general having more original creators here posting their own work consistently is a good thing if we want to grow the platform.

Showing that it can be good to post here for creators will make more creators want to post here leading to an overall improvement in this community.

If she joined Lemmy then I could block her account and I wouldn't have to see her comics (as I did on Reddit). As it stands I don't really want to block OPs account since they post and comment lots of different stuff. It's nice to be able to block a specific creator from their own account rather than play whack-a-mole with freebooters.

And before people start saying I'm misogynist or something, I'm not. There are plenty of women webcomic artists I like. Extraordinary Comics and War and Peas just to name a couple. I just find pizzacake to be incredibly boring, low hanging fruit and barely even funny at all. Not trying to hurt feelings, I just don't like her stuff and prefer to block it from my feed.

She didn't post it. This is the first Pizzacake comic I've seen on here since I joined. Were she here I'd follow her and get everything.

Same. I’ll admit a few overall have made me nose laugh but most are just “yep, that’s a joke/statement I see online 20 times a week put to picture”. It’s not that I inherently dislike them, but they’re not my cup of tea and I preferred when I could just not see them.

no but i want to be madddd

how dare you enjoy and spread this thing that i dont follow >:((((((

entire day. ruined. i downvoted your comment to let you know how much i dont care.

I'm talking about the creator, relevant, and specifically referring to this particular comic (as well as their others) as awful and without a punchline, so that doesn't feel like nothing about the topic to me.

Negativity is a valid opinion and negativity isn't the same as incivility (and thus shouldn't be prohibited)

The one she sites the most is sexism though there isn’t actually a lot of evidence of this outside of her own testimony.

Sexism is so rampant on Reddit that saying "I'm a woman" and getting bombarded by creeps and freaks is trivial. Less a commentary on her, specifically, and more on the degenerate nature of the community.

She’s made multiple comics about how her critics don’t read her comics and just dislike them due to woman.

She's producing liberal political comics, and she's a woman, so the chuds will be out in full force screaming at her.

At a certain point, though, its just...

She’s fine.

She's very clearly low effort. The art is flat, the comedy is mid, the political edginess is ten years out of date.

I wonder if Netflix will be signing her any time soon.
