I love this sentiment, and have always felt the same way about music. Make music because you have new ideas and want to make music. There are easier ways to make money. Doing daily content to max engagement is just making you a salve to the technogarchy (and I'm tired of seeing you not making music)

I wrote a manifesto for making games, and (not) selling them, for #manifestojam illomens.itch.io/no-one-is-go...

This is how I try to approach when making vocalsynth covers. Part of me wants engagement and recognition, but I know it's a losing battle especially when I'm not skilled and know nothing about music production. Instead I make covers of what I want to listen for myself and learn as I go.

I say this not as advice to young people who are aiming to be successful. Success in the art world is mostly luck based, not a good career path if making money is the goal of your life. Being poor is not noble, but not being driven by the pursuit of wealth is the only way to live an artist's life
