Assuming you are an artist and internally compelled to create. If they're not paying you their opinion does not matter. Biggest mistake in the world to pander to others tastes and interests. Do not compromise for anyone, the only compromises you make should come from what is physically and materially possible for you to accomplish. But if you are getting money for it good for you and you should probably just do whatever they want.

Practising creativity with a sense of giving your audience want they want. Its okay to create in such a way that fulfils your wishes and interests but at a certain point you must realise that the audience matters.
We’ve all been a part of the crowd and have known what we’ve wanted to see as a member of said audience. Taste, and the creators habits can only show so much, sometimes you must also joyfully do your job.
Give the people what they want in a way that leaves you fulfilled and excited to experience your own art from the perspective of the audience.

Making art is fun and it doesn't need to be branded or monetized in order to be a success! Create just to create!!!! Not everything needs monetary value to be valuable!!!!!

There is such pressure to make art that will satisfy the algorithm or the world at large but there is nothing virtuous about that sort of creation I think. Making art that your friends will like though? There is no better feeling.

Am I coming? Am I going? I don’t know. Just a truly awful place to be.

You can find connection with anyone on the street, but the people I actually want to connect with are exceedingly rare. I think it's better to just accept it if you are someone with very specific needs and tastes rather than torturing yourself over the fact that you feel alienated and alone. It also makes it more special when there's someone I truly connect with.
