was reading about the whole Inktober thing, and I think a good lesson to take away from it is that if you want to build a business on a community you should be good at community management (and the Inktober guy isn't, especially)Permalink Look on archive.org
-
Inktober backstory: it's a hashtag where people post ink drawings every day in October. the dude who originated it has trademarked the name, and recently sent a (some?) cease and desists to artists selling artbooks with "Inktober"™ in the title. this caused controversy!Permalink Look on archive.org

here's his carefully worded post, trying to smooth it over mrjakeparker.com/blog/2019/12/20/inktoberPermalink Look on archive.org
-
I'm not a community manager, and hindsight is 20:20, but I think posting up rules by which people could use the Inktober name before sending C&Ds would've been good. And just generally trying to activate and add to the community in a way that makes it clear the business exists.Permalink Look on archive.org

so, for example: Cats is a guilty pleasure, not because it is a OTT trainwreck of an Andrew Lloyd Webber musical, but because it clearly involved some terrible crunch for the VFX artistsPermalink Look on archive.org

at some point I decided that the idea of a guilty pleasure was bad: what's the point of feeling bad about your media consumption? but I have just decided that it's a good concept again, because sometimes you enjoy things that are bad not for reasons of taste, but for ethicsPermalink Look on archive.org

@ianholmes you're right that it doesn't exist in a separate dimension, and these things are never clean cut. but in this example, it's helpful for me to put aside the fact that that sounds boring as hell when thinking about whether it supports a racist mindset.Permalink Look on archive.org
