RE: An artist vs. the algorithms
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
I've had this same kind of existential questioning myself and I still haven't reached conclusive answers, but I don't think that you should stop doing what you love if you can survive while doing it. If you can't, then it's going to have to take second place to the essentials of day to day life, but keep on going - you'll never know unless you try.

I’ll never stop doing what I love. I think the questions becomes whether to bother sharing it and to what degree. Also should I really be putting any effort at all into social media where there is a chance a few people see it but less and less because algorithms. But thank you. Just hearing that gives me some energy
Social media is such a pain in the ass, to be honest it seems that it's becoming more and more difficult on conventional platforms to be noticed unless you pay for ads 🙄
I suppose it really comes down to why you are doing it - maybe do it more for yourself than for others if that makes sense? It's a tricky conundrum
Even paying for ads can have the opposite unless your content is addictive. I am more focused on actual quality than addictiveness so it’s really hard. It’s possible to be both but that’s a full time job! No thank you lol
