1. Lenso.ai
5. DeviantArt
DeviantArt was once one of the most popular platforms for online artists. While the community remains engaged with the artwork, the rise of AI-generated art has caused some users to leave the platform.

- Options to download, add to collections, and mark favorites
- Built-in shopping system
- No registration required
Cons:
- AI-generated art ranks high on the site

4. Instagram
Instagram is the leading platform for image sharing. It lets users bookmark, like, comment, and share pictures and videos. However, it faces criticism due to privacy concerns and controversial practices by its parent company, Meta.
Pros:

- Built-in image editor
- Bookmarking and sharing features

Cons:
- Not specifically designed for art and design

- No AI art tagging
- Limited image size and resolution
- Primarily mobile-focused
3. Tumblr
Though Tumblr has seen a decline in popularity, it still hosts a sizable community of artists who share their work. The platform allows users to post their own art and reblog others' content, functioning more like a blogging platform than a simple image-sharing site.
Pros:
- Customizable blogs
- Supports animations and artwork
- Less AI art compared to other platforms

Cons:
- Requires account creation

Cosmos is the platform most similar to Pinterest. Users can explore various areas of interest like art, architecture, and photography. Like Pinterest, users share images from across the web rather than posting directly to the platform. It’s less fandom-focused compared to others.
Pros:

- Covers a wide range of art, not just digital art or paintings
Cons:
