In regards to the poll I’ve been using sticknodes for literal ages, but took a never got into the community until 2019, left in early 2020 I believe, and came back 2022. I remember watching the sticknodes movie like it was a cinema, it was the biggest sticknodes animation back then by epitaph.

But for the actual app, I’ve been using it since before there were even gradient thumbnails. All stickfigures had white backgrounds. Good times 👴
I was able to dig up an old screenshot of one of my sticknodes anims from 2016.
It’s from my old yt channel, but I’m gate keeping the name of it for the rest of my life. Hell to the no.
