There's definitely some people for whom these are legitimately just hobbies and if they make some money for it then great, sure. But for those people it's not really a problem if they don't get paid, they'll almost certainly continue to create anyway.

I think one of the worst(?) parts is when someone turns a hobby that their friends and family enjoy them doing/sharing in to a business. Suddenly it's this all consuming thing. Their instagram/SNS posts turn in to nothing but a stream of what amounts to advertisements for their fledgling business/hustle.
