Folkic vs. DeviantArt
Fan Expression vs. Fan Community
An honest comparison of Folkic and DeviantArt. Both have real strengths. Here is each platform's unique value for fan communities, and how we can help them integrate.
DeviantArt is an art community platform where fan art, fan fiction, and other visual creative works are shared and discovered.
Folkic is a mobile app built specifically for fan communities organized around entertainment franchises. Every feature is designed for how fan communities actually work.
DeviantArt is where fan art gets shared. Folkic is where fans gather. DeviantArt is organized by individual expression and discovery. Folkic is organized by shared franchise identity and structured events.
DeviantArt to share creative work, Folkic to gather with the people who love that creative work and want to engage in structured fan events and discussions around it.
An honest note.
