>artists don't always want as much reach as possible.
What reach? Gurochan has had a steady decline in user activity for the last couple years, aided by the fact it was offline for most of 2020 and people forgot the site existed. If they are worried about too many people seeing their work, I'd wager a bet that there are only a handful of anons left who are waiting for her to come back. This site was the only outlet for non-Discord users to see her artwork after she abandoned her Inkbunny and no longer posted on the /trash/ board on 4chan.

I wouldn't be so miffed if the artwork from the Discord server was at least shared here, but no one does it. Many (younger) users don't even know about this place so they have no clue that anons outside of their Discord server would also like to see work by this artist. Sorry to say, but to me Discord was and still is a cancer - it has eroded image board activity for years, and made artists hideaway from using traditional art galleries in favor of circlejerks where they can get their daily dose of praise and filter out/kick anyone else who disagrees with them.

>it's not like she's missing out on anything by using discord for that.
Anons who like her art who do not use Discord are missing out. And if/when the server dies, it takes all the artwork posted along with it, and its lost forever if not shared.

>posting art is a very awesome favor artists sometimes do for us.
That attitude comes off as a very snobbish, stuck up view. As if you are above people who don't draw. The fact you decided to shill commissions right after is rather distasteful, imo.
