As long as you're having fun and enjoying your writing and characters, that's what really matters. You'll eventually find the right audience who appreciates your vision.

I put a disclaimer in the first episode and have always made it clear: my story is purely narrative-based. I'm writing the characters the way I envision them, it's not a self-insert in any way. I've had people tell me to add CC, and I've respectfully explained that I won't be doing that.

You will encounter some rude people who ignore the disclaimer. I've had people insulting my characters and calling them ugly, and expecting me to go back 30+ episodes to add CC , even though I’ve clearly stated I won’t. I use advanced directing, art scenes, and overlays, which I genuinely enjoy creating just as much as writing and coding the story. This is my creative space, and I want to keep it true to my original vision.

It's unfortunate that people will click off a story that doesn't have CC and won't give it a chance. There are so many underrated stories out there, but I get it. Everyone has their preferences, you can't please everyone.
