The most authentic content typically emerges from creators who operate independently, without relying on financial backing or subsidies. Once platforms introduce heavy monetization incentives, the organic appeal starts fading fast. Many don't realize this—or simply choose to ignore it—which is exactly why community-driven spaces lose their original charm.

ngl That's why I increasingly dislike watching content from big influencers; it's all forced to generate traffic.

ngl, this perspective hits the mark... Independent creators' work really is different. Once money starts pouring in, the entire atmosphere changes.

Nah really, as soon as there's money, things start to change. I've seen this happen many times.

Nah really, as soon as the money comes in, everything changes. This is most clear in crypto.
