The sidebar gives you quick access to some of your favorite features and groups! Open (or close) the sidebar by clicking the menu to the left of the DeviantArt logo.

Use the sidebar to navigate DeviantArt seamlessly! While Home is your default view, a mixture of Recommended For You, Deviants You Watch, and curated content, you can browse more specific content. 

Deviants You Watch is a feed of all of the deviants you're following! You can toggle between deviations they've submitted and posts—journals, polls, status updates.

Daily Deviations will bring you a daily curated snapshot of some of the most beautiful, interesting, or unusual work on DeviantArt.

Daily Challenges will provide you with a new creative prompt each day to practice your skills.

DreamUp is DeviantArt's AI art generation tool which you can use to create without limits.

Easily visit the feeds of groups you watch or are a member of directly from the sidebar! Red dot indicators will let you know when there is new content. You can also collapse the Groups (and Recommended Groups) section by clicking the arrow beside it. 

Hover over the group for a "..." menu to pin a group to the top or visit a group's profile page. To leave a group you're a member of, you'll still need to visit the group's page. Learn more.

Your sidebar will show 50 groups, but if you watch or belong to more, just click "Show More" at the bottom!

Looking for a new group to watch or join? The sidebar offers recommendations of groups for you to participate in. Not interested? Hover over the group to pull up the "..." menu and click "Remove recommendation." 

You can also visit the group's Profile or watch the group from this menu!
