Yeah, it's cool. I don't know how I feel about morality in the modern day and I kind of feel like distinguishing between good and bad discomfort will lead you down the road to bad censorship. There's a distinction to be made between porn and not porn but it becomes blurry with art that's made to explore sex and violence in a constructive way.

Getting back to the point of your post though I find that most people on the internet generally have useless advice. Weirdly it seems like there's an expectation that free content is illegitimate somehow and needs to bow to the reader for their attention even moreso than paid content which is already mostly hollow and pandering. You really need to build up a following before you have people who will take you seriously, and those are usually the people in your following and you'll still get shit from outside
