What's more important in social media for artists—quantity of content or other factors?

You’re fighting for attention in social media, whether that attention is positive or negative. All engagement counts algorithmically. Don’t remove or hide attention just because some of it is negative. The exposure matters more than the sentiment in many cases, because the algorithm treats all comments as engagement signals. Focus on creating content that generates interest and conversation, and learn to handle negative feedback professionally while letting it work in your favor algorithmically.
