For me, I think it's because I don't like a lot of attention. Whether that be due to my depression/anxiety, I don't know. But something else is preventing me from drawing on other platforms... (I post some stuff to Tumblr, albeit very rarely.)
But! At least one thing is for certain: I definitely enjoy the 3D effects of this place! So that's one reason I know I stay.

she's so pretty, i always love how smooth your line art is ! you are my idol ^-^

re:// btw thank you! your comment cheered me up <33

Yeah, you're right, it's a really good question xd
I guess its because I feel very comfortable here, i am not so active on social media, and when a receive one or two notifications here I feel really happy :")
I started here around 2014-15 and even though colors for 3ds looks a bit limited, I have learned to draw with it.
Recently I got a tablet so there I can draw with better programs, but I haven't gotten used to them

btw i just want to answer tho hehehe <3

actually i draw bc i want to improve my art skills and i just need getting better at drawing because my dream is to draw my own anime and have a studio to make draw manga there!

i know the dream is very unrealistic, but i want to do my own anime since i was little ^-^

btw sorry for the bad english ily <3

Well I keep drawing here becuase it's free and I enjoy the people here as well as Colors is my only digital platform, and well I don't really care about having alot of followers as long as someone besides me enjoys my art that I share, also I don't really have access to much else (I could if I wasn't broke *shrugs* it's fine tho)

I'm still here because I don't really have anything else. Not that that's a negative! Rather, I don't see a reason to look for something else.
This is my cozy spot!!! I'm content just drawing and I like the people here! I generally draw and post with the mindset that the drawing is worthwhile if at least one person liked it... so yeah, I'm not after a lot XP

These are all very good reasons, everyone. Thank you so much for answering!

Yes, many of times I feel that likes and followers don't matter, so long as you love what you do! And I hope everyone here loves their own art! ^^

re:// yes! hehehe its bc you are a really good person and the people should notice your great art tho <3

there was a time I did it for the likes and follows but not anymore. :/

One of the major reasons why I stay is because I'm not fond of drawing on any other system, tablets are awful, and I feel I don't have a full grasp of what I'm drawing. The 3ds is easier and I feel the most comfortable with using it for drawing plus the 3d is also a reason why I still draw on my 3ds! :D
-
another reason I stay is for my friends and my sisters! ^ w ^ being able to see their art and talk with them helps keep me going on this place! :P
-
My last reason is for my love for my characters, this is a place where I can make my refs and draw my oc's freely! it helps me keep track of their info by typing in the description boxes so I can keep track! :D

Well see, I'm very new to digital art, so I wanted to first 'dip my toes in' to test before I dive into it fully. But, the community here is awesome, for example, you, so how could I leave?

I'm still reading everyone's comments here. They're all very interesting.

And you're all so wholesome too, omg. I'm so lucky to have followers like you guys.

I think I just find it easier to draw on here rather than using photoshop, or another drawing app. I see my Switch as a great art tool. The cool people on here are just a bonus since anything I post here ends up on my instagram or on teeshirts anyways. lol

@Mewsea I would have to agree with your first comment 'cause I have anxiety and I just had an anxiety attack last Tuesday
