That does sound quite vulnerable, I appreciate you sharing. I guess it was a relatively safe space among fetish crowd and under a pseudonym, but still. Did you do anything else before, like drawing or writing? Being addicted to validation kinda sucks, because it won't always line up with your personal tastes.

You see, I'm from Russia, where they passed a law some time ago, requiring authors, channels and bloggers having any noticeable audience registering under full legal name, authentication not bound to your ID through a phone number becomes rarer and rarer, while making and distributing pornographic materials was de jure illegal for as long as I remember. Don't want it to get political, just something that can realistically happen in the future in other places like UK, Poland or w/e. The regular citizens don't give a damn and I'm probably not moving to post my fanfic. At least it's not Sharia law yet

I would even be fine breaking the law on the down low, like I was doing weed for while, if there wasn't so many schizos seething over porn and doing the "civic duty" snitching. Writing is already kinda hard, but when you are thinking that you are digging yourself into a hole with every word its even harder
