I’ve made quite a few posts to /c/risa that are actual OC. I’m either horrible at humor, the timing is bad, or it doesn’t work for whatever reason. Extremely low effort memes? Lots of upvotes. If I do high effort stuff that takes an hour or more, I’m just discouraged by the lack of even comments.
So, to tie this all up - is it worth a latinum bar to keep trying to do OC? Do you all even want that (seriously)?
if its a chore you shouldnt be doing it. it should be fun!
for me its a bursting outlet for my nonsense… not reeallly considering the audience when im creating stuff. i just need to get it out of my brain before it burns a hole.
ive also been surprised by some of the easiest stuff garnering the most attention.
alllllsoo… ive noticed in the verse this kinda of delayed reaction. ive gotten posts that suddenly gain attention months later as the fediverse does its thing, and the content gets refreshed out there…somewhere.
