I think the best place to get critique is either a mentor, or a private discord of some sort. This place isn't the worst, but it also isn't' the best. There are people here who will give you honest critique, but there are also a lot who will just tear you to shreds. In my personal view, I'm more likely to ignore criticism if it's presented in a destructive, insulting way. I really think that critique should be done more matter-of-factly, instead of overly emotional. You're pointing out errors to fix them, not to break someone's ego. But I'm also not gonna sit here and say some people don't genuinely deserve that but that should only be like a last resort.

This last point I think might be more controversial but you also don't have to follow every piece of criticism you get. I think this can be more so applied to advanced artists instead of beginners, who probably should really follow that advice. But either way, if a critique you get genuinely doesn't follow whatever goal you want for your art, you don't have to follow it. I think it's always good to think about the critique you get, consider why someone says that thing. But whether you follow it is completely up to you. But doing that successfully also requires you to be really honest with yourself, which can be difficult for some.
