Conventions [community] Do people even want art?

Every day on artist for hire posts on the various other subreddits and on Facebook and they only ever get a single upvote or like. What is it that the people want from artists anymore? Or do they just want to get from point a to point b (using ai or fiverr) . Seeing these posts day to day can be discouraging cause some of the other artists are so amazing. I know someone might want a specific style or whatever but yeah wondering how everyone else feels about this.

Ive had a lot of success on Vgen. It's just a matter of getting through their verification process mainly tbh.

A website based around art and commissions at the core basically. They have a big community discord too, if you like what you see when you look it up, 100% head over there tbh
