Wouldn't a community make more sense? It can be made on an instance that already exists.
An instance dedicated to art and art focused things would help spread the federation out and attract users who are focused primarily on art. It's really not a good idea to put everything on one instance. It's a thing that occurs on the fediverse, outside of specific instances there are niche and hobby focused instances that attract a lot of people. Everyone is just crowding all their communities into the general purpose instances and that's not really how the fediverse is intended to work.
I had experience with mastodon several years ago and so when I moved over here from Reddit I was excited to try and find an instance that resonated with me but alas, the only niche ones are like, furry instances, porn instances, and tech instances. Bummed that there haven't been more that have themes.
That's exactly why I'm asking, to maybe make a new one with a new theme :)
