The premise assumes going viral = success, but success doing something you hate is just a different kind of failure. Stay unknown, stay sane.

Real talk: most people who go viral doing something they hate end up trapped in that identity forever. The algorithm doesn't care about your growth.

Unknown but fulfilled > famous but miserable. This isn't even a tough choice.

Viral once and you're set for life though. Hate it for a month, then retire and do what you love forever.

Going viral sounds exhausting honestly. I'd rather have a small group of people who genuinely appreciate what I'm doing than millions of people watching me do something soul-crushing.
