DeviantArt is no longer a good program… DeviantArt is no longer a good program for artists to share their creativity. Their policies allow pedophilia and gore content but yet they ban anyone who labels their artwork carefully for older audiences and can't tell the difference between Photoshop and fiction. The app is filled with double standards and the website is no longer a positive environment. Either change the name of the app or shut the whole thing down.

Not for professional/serious artists This website is a bad website for professional artists. There's no quality control, meaning that something bad will get more views than professional-level art. You'll get a lot of porn, fetish art, low effort 'art', spam and even art theft. The new layout (Eclipse) copies Artstation's layout, and there's no way to turn it off. The moderators are lazy and don't consider hiring more people. If you take art seriously, don't use DeviantArt. Try something like Artstation or Pixiv.

Greedy for money, useless membership, stupid ToS Greedy for money, removes pretty much all mature content. Has insanely stupid ToS regarding nudity and intercourse. Core membership is useless, and why would anyone buy one piece of art for $5? People still upload ripped content (especially real person photoshoots) Favorites can't be set to private, even if you remove the widget from your page people still can access it with the typical /favorites link

not good. WAS once a decent site, very dead now due to the atrocious new layout after being bought from another very trash site too. All the originality and creativity from the original site has been stripped away by a very basic and ugly, cluttered layout. Utterly horrid decision on their layout which was heavily criticized from the start. No more customization, way too cluttered, and all the art categories were removed. Very glitchy, too. Utter garbage.

Enjoy what you want to see, Ignore the rest. I have refined my search parameters on DeviantArt to get what I want to see: Anthropomorphic Foxes and Felines. Realistic, attractive, cute, nude not lewd. I quickly skim past hanging genitals, sex acts, unbelievably huge breasts and unbelievable body building. My preferences may not match yours, but "to each their own".
