Only other artist give a shit about the art, but artist aren't the ones who might potentially give you money.
If you see all the big accounts, they're not followed for their art, their art is secondary to whatever else they might do i.e.
>drama and circlejerking
Or alternatively just baiting random people to ratio them since the average cattle are so miserable and irl losers they need a win really, really fucking bad at the cost of making themselves a lolcow.
You can see this type of dynamic with irl streamers who will do anything for money and clout like the npc tiktokers; the point of those things are not the "entertainment" but the people being at the mercy and seeking the approval of the viewers who do not have the best intentions in mind.
Unless we're talking the anime fotm generic lewd slop where kids and coomers spam thirsty comments and with most followers being 3rd world chinese following every nsfw artist to steal their shit and print it on merch to sell it to unknowing normies or others who give even less of a shit.
tldr it's all fake and gay
