A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

Is this weird or just me? (alien.top)

I was interacting in a discussion on the threads all and asks the question of what lenses they decided to shoot a certain photo with, they responded that they only divulge that information for a specific tier of this Patreon. Is it just more or is they really weird and gatekeepy? Hell, if anyone asked me what glass I was shooting on I’d happily let them know the lenses and anything else they wanted to know, just seems hella weird to me.

I think I found it weird because she demanded that more people follow female photographers because apparently threads is a “male dominated space”, which I would disagree as it’s a bit of an even split (at least for my feed) and then pushed her print store and patreon in the same post, I can see her not wanting to divulge information if she has a specific business mode around that but I don’t think it’s necessary if she’s selling as many prints and she’s claiming she does.
