The less he posts, the less engagement and traffic he gets... and when he posts low-effort comics like this, he still gets the same, if not better, levels of engagement, so why fucking try?
Every artist online can tell you of a time when they tried really hard and were really proud of what they accomplished, only for it to get zero attention. And then they make some shitpost doodle in 5 minutes and it explodes and they get nothing for it. Not even a few new followers or a couple bucks in their tip jar and before they can even attempt to capitalize on the popularity, other people are already stealing and reposting and making memes out of their shitpost doodle anyways, and they didn't even sign it.
