I didn't know one could sum up a large part of my experiences in the online world of content creation in the span of one article.

Well, apparently you can, even though it's a "long" read, not favored by algorithms. Haha. Like any good satire, I didn't know whether to laugh or cry while reading this. Maybe both is the correct answer.

Like another comment suggested, this could very well pass as FAQ. But for those of us who actually believe in "Writing," it serves as an important reminder of what reality looks like, and not to be indirectly swayed by ostentatious displays of success.

Thanks for this. Really needed to read this today.
