Maybe it's seasonal changes, but I've been seeing a lot of unkindness directed at creators lately. Being creative is very hard work and we put in so much effort to make everyone happy— the weight of unkind words can hurt more than you realize. Please be nice to others. 🙏

Luckily tactic nukes of blocking work here very well. Spread positivity on this platform not the algo pushed click bait and hate.

I believe it’s envy honestly. They see them as being fulfilled in life and heading in the right path cus they had it the “easy way”. It’s just projection shit that they don’t realize we also suffer mentally like them too, just gotta put in the work for urself

I always treat others as I want to be treated, but when they continue to be otherwise kind.. aye, they can continue with that and I wish them some character development a great distance from me.

There is definitely something in the air I feel as well. I do have hope things will be better as they are better now than they have been in the past imo for creators.

People don't understand when you're a creator that you will hear the same thing over and over again from sometimes hunderds of people So when they go "oh i just wanna help" there are 70 people who does the same and it's a mix of angry people and people who wanna "help" and it just overwhelms you

I genuinely wonder why? Why be cruel to artists?? Like... I'm just happy to see people make things, even if it isn't my cup of tea at least they made it for themselves and that rules.

yeah ive been seeing more trolls pop up lately... ive just been blocking them (⁠｡⁠ŏ⁠﹏⁠ŏ⁠)

It's SO easy to not be an asshole, and that's coming from one.

And they look like such armchair critics doing that. Like, how is that not embarrassing? Please do better, people.

As a former 4chan /v/-goer, it's mostly trolls and kids, but sometimes it's just genuinely hate-consumed people. Whether you're secular or religious, folks, words have power -- use it for good, not evil. Your content is great, Pumpkin! 🎃
