Edit: thank you for all information, it is really helpful 💖 I will check out pixelfed (.art) and go from there, maybe later setting up something “at home” ! Thanks again !!!

Hello !

I just got asked for a link to my paintings, and well I don’t have an art portfolio online and after trying some free ones out, I haven’t found anything nice (ease if useno nag-ware) so I thought of Devianart where lits of good pixel artists hanged around some ten years ago …

But I have heard Devianart is no longer recommended or the goto place for your portfolio, is that so (or not ofc!) and if, do you have any recommendations for a free online portfolio? Say 30-40 paintings tops.

I’m thinking about setting up something myself so self hosting (FOSS) recommendations are greatly appreciated too!

Cheers!

    PixelFed is also part of the FediVerse and uses ActivityPub, meaning people using Mastodon clients can follow PixelFed accounts.

    You can run it yourself, but if you’re not able to for whatever reason, there are a ton of established servers.

      Yes. It’s worth noting though that as a Pixelfed user you will only see posts with images. In fact a lot of my favourite art that I see is coming from mastodon.art, which is (as the name suggests) a Mastodon instance!
