have ur opinion or w/e but its so odd to be so pressed abt this kind of thing. people like go be noticed. thats just a very basic human thing. the ones i see who complain the most or might "throw a fit" are people who are younger and lonely and maybe just maybe they want to feel like they've made a connection to someone and like being online has made it extremely bad but that doesnt necessarily mean its wrong for someone to still want an audience or anything. it feels so isolating sometimes to be one drop in the ocean yknow. hell id like a bigger following myself to a degree because it becomes an echo chamber in here lmao but you gotta give people time and space to ease out of that numbers are everything mindset not tear em down for it.
