I think the “I am usually right” part of oneself goes down with commenters and goes up with money. I think both of your examples are different ratios of reading comments vs making money

Genuine question if you think you can answer it: Introspectively, do you think the value of your own opinion is more inflated because you have an audience and brands ask you to mention them, or deflated because there's always someone in your comments willing to counter and critique what you have to say?
I don't ever plan to have some sort of audience, but I've seen online creators develop overwhelming egos in response to their amassed audience (Ninja) and I've also seen creators get burned out from the constant critique on everything they put out (William Osman). I'm curious as to how you wrestle with that internally.
