Silly or not, that wasn't my point, of course not all people "deserve" the praise, some maybe do awesome stuff, and if you like their work... why not?, of course it's all matter of perspective, some people don't care about the talent of others, and will not give a penny to someone for just that.
Looks like you don't know about Patreon, some artist get lots of money just because fans don't want them to stop existing in the art world, just one of many samples: https://www.patreon.com/sakimichan , just look the amount of money per 2 weeks... that's just one part of the money, then you need to add commissions, paid…
