Posting this here, rather than in General, because I'm interested more in perhaps something like a self-hosted option than a discussion of the relative merits of one social media platform over another…

…buuuuuuuuuut…

if you guys were going to create an online gallery for artwork these days, where/how would you do it? Would I need to roll my own? Is there an open-source thing that's really good for that? Is there something that's open-source and social as well? Should I just give up and use a major social network?

I've been using tumblr, because I can set up my domain and basically have a gallery, but with some of the benefits of finding other artists, getting stuff seen a bit… but, y'know… tumblr. So I'm starting to wonder what my other options might be. I heard about pixelfed perhaps? But a friend said to wait until there's a stable release…

People are using pixelfed and seem to really like it. I don't know how that would work for you because I've never used it, and I've also never used instragram, so I have no idea at all what it's like, other than being federated and open. Is Indexhibit still a thing? I heard a lot of good things about that probably ten years ago, but nothing really since.

Personally, I think i would make my own solution and use a fediverse bot to crosspost to fedi, but that's probably more workload than you're looking for right now?

I'm in the same situation for the same reason. I'm only using Twitter reluctantly, and it feels like my stuff barely draws any attention apart from the people who already know me.

One site I heard of is called ArtStation, which is focused on the professional side of things. There are comments and ratings and such, but the site seems to otherwise focus on you. When you view a person's profile, you see their own art and nobody else's. Posting there is basically making your portfolio, and they have a job board and stuff. The site seems to be entirely free, too. Personally, I'm too intimidated to join it.

I used this article to look for other sites. Maybe one of these will help?

In this day and age there's not really any communities anymore that end up being successful, it ends up just being about the individual and not also the people around them... (like how most big sites removed a lot of 'groups' etc see YT/FB)

The alt attribute should be used to give a short description
of an image; longer descriptions should be given with the
longdesc attribute which takes a URL linked to the description.
These measures are needed for people using non-graphical browsers.

For further advice on how to make your pages accessible
see http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL.
You are recommended to use CSS to specify the font and
properties such as its size and color. This will reduce
the size of HTML files and make them easier to maintain
compared with using <FONT> elements.

You are recommended to use CSS to control line wrapping.
Use "white-space: nowrap" to inhibit wrapping in place
of inserting <NOBR>...</NOBR> into the markup.
