I think you've put the cart before the horse. You are worrying excessively about audience reception but are you actually good at anything yet? If people hate your old work it's probably because you are still an amateur.
>But somewhere down the line I learned that people would only hate me for expressing what I thought was cool, or what I thought was funny.
Of course you are unhappy and your work is hollow. Lol like this obviously poor attitude kneecaps you.
Certain artists do have broader appeal than others and certain types of work have wider audience. But guess what you're you, one person, and you can't wish on a star and suddenly be someone else who's popular and shit. Make what you're best at.

Self consciously tailoring your work for audience reception is the spook. For work that is passionate, medium and method is essential to the message and not something to outsource because it's hard work. Maybe you meant something like "know your real strengths," but you said it in the most pretentious way possible. Also

The fuck is with this recent meme where everyone has to throw around psychiatric disorders for mundane shit they disagree with? It is everyone online right now. You could be talking about something mundane as favorite pizza toppings and some genius will still chime in with "Take your meds."
