Bored of Instagram and Facebook? Fortunately, there are also other platforms. A good example of this is Cara, which mainly focuses on art lovers and makers. This concerns ‘self-made’, with no room for AI-generated material. For example, the makers have built in an AI detector that automatically filters such images.

It is clear that Cara wants to provide a safe environment, where users communicate with each other in a constructive manner and where posts with an annoying tone are avoided as much as possible. As an artist, you can use the platform to attract potential clients. The use of links (for example to your own website) is therefore permitted. Regarding visibility: you can decide for yourself which content you prefer to see on the home page.

Naturally, the platform focuses on a specific user group, and that poses the biggest challenge for a sustainable business model that can scale. The near future will show whether the platform reaches a critical mass to enable further growth. You can use the platform for free. As for functionality and look & feel it is very similar to established social networks, such as Instagram.
