Content

Hello! How are you? I'm going through plumbing-issues hell right now in my apartment but this post isn't about that (I'm okay otherwise, don't worry).

Quips as a feature here on patreon have been around for a little while now, and I've flirted with them on and off - I know that a few people actually only view my stuff through this website rather than following me on any other of my social media (and I can certainly respect that), so, depending on what you're looking for, utilizing them more often could actually benefit some people's experiences here... Unless they are annoying as hell! So, this is your time to tell me how you feel.

Regarding Quips, would you:

I don't use social media so I love hearing your thoughts via quips

shadowpupsik

Not gonna lie, when I saw the “Hello. How are you? I have plumbing problems!” I thought I got the spam email in the style of “Lonely woman 5 miles from you is seeking company of a handyman” 😭😭😭 Glad it was your post instead! Happy to see any quips.

Lyrak

I am indifferent to quips specifically because I have seen them mentioned in the notifications settings but I have NO idea what they are 😂

Magophage

I have never experienced quips to be disruptive personally, especially since one is able to mute them in settings. From what I have gotten to know of them, they usually benefit those who are curious and looking into potentially supporting creators. So, by any means, if you believe them to aid your plattfform, keep making use of them 👍🏻

Vee

Have no idea what it is, but I’m open to seeing what’s up.

Rucifie

I have no idea what they are, bluesky is my main site for you

Cwen_Bee

First time patreon user here. No idea what quips are, but i like seeing your updates, sketches, thought process! So like for me, I'm chill with whatever you feel comfiest with 🙌

Tressym

I don’t know what quips are but I’d be curious to see some!

Fern with Googley Eyes

I am impressed that 30% are indifferent at time of poll (though I guess it's early) and so far at 320 no one has said they are detrimental. Edit: 524 votes and we got 14 in that category. My tumblr-riddle ass is charmed by the concept of your existence and desperately wishes there was a qualitative section to this poll so I could know why you think that.

Mellie

I am kind of between feeling very indifferent towards them but if they were to be used I would like to read about art or lore thoughts :)

pastelsteak

This! I never heard of them until this post.

Atori-e

It depends on the quip whether I'm indifferent or not, but I tend to like getting updates. It is nice to know what comes next. As an artist myself, it is also somewhat motivating to get updates on what other artists are working on or what influences their workflow.

maya

i don't know what a quip is, but i do like reading your posts and i like your teasers too!

Ro

I hate quips tbh. They pop up like actual notifications (like DMs or replies) from other apps and I check them thinking it’s something I need to respond to. Everyone is using them lately and it’s just so annoying imo. I’m going to have to poke around in the settings again because I swear I turned them off but I’m still getting the push notifications

Ro

Update: you have to disable them for every single account you follow or are subscribed to regardless of what your overall settings are.

Harley

I just googled what quips are on here and I still don’t fully understand them, lmao. But I can say that I love and enjoy your content regardless of it being a wall of text/info, a lore drop, or art.

Vic

do whatever is easiest for you! i had honestly no idea what they were and hadn't heard of them before today

E

I'm sorry I literally don't know what quips are 😅

E

update: I found quips, and I haven't seen a single one of them. they don't get emailed to my inbox like posts do, so I don't see when you post a quip. maybe because I don't have the patreon app...? anyway I guess I'm indifferent because without an email notification I'll never notice them 😔

stablepaddock

I only have access to the app but I'll be honest, I don't much care for Patreon trying to be more like a social media site I don't like Quips since a post works just as well and thank god you don't do the Group Chat function cause I dislike that so much too. I can see what other fans of your work say in the comment section and I can see your posts just fine on the app so long as patreon isn't trying to algorithm my feed away from me >_>

🚬

I hate using instagram so hearing from here feelsmore authentic

Rez

I have no idea what a quip is (after looking into it for about 3 seconds) but I do know it can be a bit hard to navigate this app/site. So if it helps with that and isn’t too much trouble, sure!

Bash Sídhe

i havent noticed the difference and i am of the yaay two cakes camp i just enjoy you talking about or showing us things

pinemeat

As a (clueless) follower, I'm mostly indifferent to quips but also find the way they work kinda redundant? Then again, idk what posting on here is like and I'd rather see EVERYTHING an artist posts contained to one account/dashboard (instead of hidden in notifications like quips seem to do) which a lot of people seem to dislike, so I'm good with whatever you prefer, especially if quips are better/easier for you in the long-run 🤙

BlueberrySpyder

Honestly I really like the preview quips! Not only can I look at my emails without accidentally flashing hole in public, but it’s just neat!

BlueberrySpyder

I also wish this was a multi-choice option cause I wouldn’t mind it for other things in quips, too

MEANBOSS

It is multi choice! Is it not working that way?

BlueberrySpyder

OMG it is 💀 I’m so used to these being one choice only I didn’t even try, my b!

MEANBOSS

Ah! Where my worst takes go.

Wheeling Stars

I don't know what they are but as long as you're not making more work for yourself, it'll be nice to get your updates ^_^

Ro

I cancelled my sub for an artist that made heavy use of group chat. If I wanted to see what everyone else was saying I’d go into the comments like I am now or join a discord. It was just so many notifications about stuff I wasn’t interested in 😩

Lilyan

I would love art and lore thoughts, even something low effort for you like sharing here some of your usual Tumblr posts. Because even if I activated notifications for you it never shows me anything on the hellsite, here at least I get emails 😅 and sometimes notifications on my car navigator screen for some reason, which is... Fun when someone's sitting shotgun

VKS

I have no idea what Quips is! 😅

sisyphus

Ohh, lore drops would be so interesting. I'm always curious about your worlds

Elfie

i'd never heard about Quips before...

Amber J Marlowe

Well I came over from Bluesky too so apparently your worst is good enough!

Julia Cooper

i don't know what a quip is. But whatever you do, i like, so i'll probably whatever a quip is

Jasmine Schmidt

I don’t like quips. I mean, if I’d only see the ones of creators I actively support, totally. But since they turn Patreon into yet another social media platform, where people are held to algorithms and promoting themselves (and where I’m spammed with content I don’t care about) I’m not a fan.

Tori

Same! No idea what a quip is (on patreon)
