Cara: Art & Social

So far the experience has been very pleasant. The concept of having a well designed safe space community for artists specifically is wonderful. I haven’t encountered any major glitches, only a couple minor ones like profile pictures not showing and the comment button not reacting all the time on iOS. This app has so much potential and I‘m so excited to see how things will develop! The team deserves all the love and support.

+ good for portfolio site + clear and bautiful layout + no AI - keeps logging you out all the time - you can't get account back if phone is broken or email account doesn't let you log in anymore (would recovery code solve this)

Can’t make an account because I don’t receive the welcome/verification email from Cara.

Really laggy when Americans are awake but a really great concept of AI free art portfolio social media. I really hope this becomes big replacement for ArtStation and to an extent Instagram.

Thankful for the development team’s hard work and the commitment to artists, just wish it had a iPad-friendly version as the works would look amazing on the new OLED iPads and iPad Pros!

Feel so much more comfortable uploading art on here than instagram but would LOVE it if there is a “not interested in this” or “hide this” or “don’t recommend this” button for posts that randomly show up on my timeline instead of forcing me to go onto some poor random artist’s profile and mute them :(

It’s so far and so good the I actually join in and it’s almost like a half Twitter and Instagram together. It’s seems great 😊 except the log out app part need to be fixed ? But everything is good.

So far as an artist I’ve enjoyed this platform, the only critiques i have i know are likely to be fixed soon anyways. Im excited to see where this goes!

At a time when generative AI content is drowning out human creators on every platform, is nice to have an platform dedicated to human artists. In its present state, genAI images would not exist if not trained on the theft of intellectual property from human artists and photographers. Cara does not allow artificial imagery on its platform and provides tools to help human artists protect their work. Amazing! While the site has had some growing pains due to the mass influx of artists, it’s being very actively developed and updated. Many of us are tired of platforms that manipulate algorithms and train generative AI on our work without consent. Cara has been a breath of fresh air for the art community and it will only continue to improve. I’m happy to have found a home here.

The app is somewhat unintuitive, but that shouldn’t stop people from using it. I think it’s a great place to find inspiration & connect with other artists.
