the pressure is intrinsic from the knowledge that what you publish will now be displayed to a bunch of people, unfiltered by algorithms. do you really want to put out a post that you yourself might find useful, but might be considered shallow, low effort, repetitive, non unique by your readers, and a waste of their time?

the fact that people want to read every new thing being posted is external validation, rather than letting each piece stand alone by its merit.
