I'm not sure what all the fuss is about in the community right now, but I will add this;
IDGAF how many studios you use or camera angles you incorporate while making content. The massive stashes of filaments and overwhelming piles of free products you are sent routinely will never influence me in anyway.
If I follow you or even contribute my hard-earned money to your endeavors, it is because I have found you to be useful and of value in helping me further my own experiences with these machines.
Your discord is a disaster, and the live streams just make me twitch. Having to sift through hundreds of hours of "content" to glean an answer to a question or get to the relevant info I need just makes me want to change the channel on you faster than any reality TV game show.
Somewhere along the way many of you have stopped being informative or educational and traded that value for some kind of celebrity status or an "I'm cooler than you" POV.
Bottom line; If all you have to offer is more "pick me" energy then you've lost my attention and most likely support.
Fuck it, I’m going to say the quiet part out loud… Being an influencer isn’t about you. Much like a politician you serve the people, provide the audience with insight into brands and products and where people should spend their money. The word has been tainted and there are only a small group that actually understand this. If your main objective is money over grounded, unbiased information surrounding products you’re presenting and reviewing, kindly fuck off and make room for those that will do the right thing with a platform.
