12th November 2025 – My thoughts on Facebook

Dear art lovers,

Meta (Facebook and Instagram) keep negatively reviewing my cubist nudes. Consequently, I’m constantly receiving warnings not to do this, and my profile has been made less visible to new viewers. This isn’t a recent phenomenon, but has been going on for years and is getting worse.

I think I’ll only post on “safe” topics from now on, and you’ll have to make do with an announcement of a work I’ve posted on my website, as long as it even remotely features a cubist nipple or worse.

Know that I definitely don’t like it, especially since I’ve heard that Facebook is currently under fire for accusations of displaying scam ads, not to mention facilitating posts that promote political influence sent from Russia and other rogue states.

Now: attached is a cropped photo of a new artwork I posted on my website. I also won’t link to it because this might lead to the conclusion that—in Meta’s eyes—I’m leading people to pornographic websites. People who know me will surely know my website and be able to find it.

I hope you enjoy browsing Facebook for adorable artwork of pets, horses, grandchildren, and anything else that can be considered cute and safe. However, you can see real works of art outside of social media.

YS, Corné Akkers
