Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

She's an example of a normal person becoming famous and having to navigate those waters without a team.
You're a wonderful example of an outside critic without consideration. I'm thankful I'm just a nobody like you, because these critiques upset me even when I'm not involved whatsoever.
I wasn't aware I had to be an artist to criticise Pizzacake.
And even without the drama on Reddit, which I don't particularly care about, her work is extremely bland and unimaginative.
Lots of posts on Lemmy are bland and unimaginative. I don't feel the need to comment as such in each and every one of them.
You do you, I guess.
You don't have to be an artist to criticize her, just like I don't have to be a critic to recognize bandwagoning. People shit on her because it's popular, not because of good reasons.
Continue to manifest reddit drama here, and argue for shitting on people. I'll take my downvotes for standing up for artists. There are literally hundreds of bigger problems we should be speaking up about, this comic artist is not one of them.
Have you considered the possibility everyone is criticising her because she genuinely sucks?
I thought she was just "bland and unimaginative"
Most people would consider those to mean similar things.
The great thing about lemmy is that if you don't like a post, there's another one under it.
Yup.
Explain the difference between bandwagoning and the majoroty of people sharing the same opinion.

You swore you'd never post that photo, I only kicked that basket because you said it was the only way you could get off
