I expect more "artists are just spoiled aristocrats" radioactive takes, but I'm posting this anyway. :this-is-fine:

    Same. Saw a lot of "I'm not going to pay for commissions anymore", "you are basically the luddites that wants to destory machinary".

    Apparently a lot of people think paying 30 bucks for hours of work is too much and artists are making crazy amount of money before this. Like the stereotype of "starving artist" exists for good reason and I doubt people go to art college to make money.

    I draw as a hobby and don't make money off of it so I'm largely unaffected, but it still put me off every time I see something like this.
