Yeah THIS! You put time and effort in it. That makes it a goddamn job in my eyes
Putting in effort does not entitle you to getting paid for something that exists for free somewhere else, or to being allowed to advertise anywhere you want.
Pretty sure no one has denied that it's a real job or business. The critics just don't want to do business with you.
Definitely not feeling entitled to get paid, since people can ask for commissions themselves or give tips themselves. If I post a very nice picture or video on here, then it is for free right? I am not asking anything for that.
It bothers me that people want to get it for free, but once they get it for free it's not okay since it's 'advertisment', because the model might earn a bit of money on another website with it.
Putting in effort doesn't entitle anyone to get paid for anything, NSFW stuff or the widgets I make in my garage, or whatever. It takes someone willing to pay for it, even if there's a free similar version of whatever somewhere else. Most communities I've seen here (and that other place) don't specifically ban advertising so who cares? Don't sub to communities and/or ask mods to modify rules.
I'm not arguing with you or speaking at you specifically, but it seems like a dumb thing to get upset over. There's many businesses I don't work with because I don't like them for whatever reason but I still see their ads all over. Same deal here, imo.

No one is saying it's not a job, jfc. People are saying it's a product and it's advertising. It's 100% as if r/android was just case makers and OEMs posting their newest products.
These communities are not your ad space.
Fair, but people are saying in this thread that they only want free stuff. If somebody posts a very nice picture or video on here, then it is for free. I really don't see the problem or it being 'ad space' just because the model also tries to earn a bit on OF too.
Like a painter can upload his painting for free to look at, so other people can enjoy the painting he made. Do people really consider that advertisement too if the painter earns his money painting?
