you are setting an example, you are fulfilling a duty to the transcendent. you are a beautiful person, can you market more? start a patreon and a vlog? the not clearcutting is much more interesting from that position. i wish you well.
First, it is not against you personally but I have seen this remarks and suggestions too much that I need to scratch an the itch. When the idea of the necessity to market oneself and go get a patreon had raised so much? I get it, it is a way to be the patron of some person doing art, good, whatever in the world as an alternative to grant, funding and old-school benefactors. But why do we have to create a content in response to that, act like we have to create a community around oneself or the project to get the money?
It make me really awkward every time I see a reach like that. I perceive it like a call to create a cult-ish of personality and to enforce the exposure of all in the world through a tiny window made by the different communities you are being part of. And for those people be upfront, they have to stay always the same to keep being the reflection of every member of their communities or it backlashes against them. I always feel awkward that the first response to funding finish to be : put yourself out there and market yourself to get a community and money to create your project. Do not forget to create daily vlog/insta/youtube/whatever so everyone can see that your are here making what we give you money for.
Sorry for the rant.
