Linki met one of my best friends on here who saved my life. literally. just by chance, 2,200 miles apart, opposite sides of the country, brought together by someone's hobby, a small, unknown website that's no longer unknown to me. this website isn't just a website to me any longer, it's a place i grew up, it's the core of my middle school years, and a sanctuary where even during quarantine, people around the world could share their authentic self through their art and animations without separation or judgement.

Linkflipanim has seen me through the best times of my life, and the the worst. although this is an animating website, i drew on here more than i did animate, but what a wonderful relief that was. i was battling 2 severe illnesses at once at the ripe age of 12 and 13 years old, in the midst of a worldwide pandemic, but i could just hop onto flipanim.com, draw, draw so much i risked getting my account banned because i posted so much i was practically spamming, and just let it out there into the feed for the few users of flipanim to see. someone was guaranteed to see it, feel it, understand it, and having that kind of connection in such a dark time is crucial. i have 76 pages of anims since i began over 6 years ago, that's not just artwork, that's history, i documented my life on here, and what a wonderful way to do so at that.

Linki sound like i'm using chatGPT, i'm not, this is how i write, if you've known me on my flipanim journey you'll know that i'm great at writing and flipanim is something that brought me closer to that skill turned into hobby of mine. i built whole stories upon this website, and its still going, new lore, to this very day, because life didn't stop in middle school when i thought it should've and it's so dear to me that i got to grow up with these flipannimers.
