Not really an artist, but I've tried my hand at writing smut once or twice. Being horny lets the creative juices flow better, at least for me.
However, making art (of any kind) usually involves being hyperaware of your mistakes (so you can fix them) which isn't really that conductive to actively "enjoying" things.
Given that many artists tend to be very critical of their own work, at least while making it, I imagine it'll be hard for them to enjoy it in that way as well.
A mixture of desktop and mobile using Jerboa for me. Tried Boost, but it didn't really seem to have much that I wanted, tbh.
For my SFW account I browse by subscribed and new, wheras here I browse by local and new (since there's not much other than smut here. :P).
I also have apps and extensions to time limit my use of it because Lemmy and Mastodon have kinda given me an unhealthy relationship with social media. I'm the type to obsess over drama and the Fediverse has no shortage of it. I kinda let it consume my life for a bit which was... Not great.
