Exactly. Visibility is the main problem!

Although for beginning writers it also has an upshot. I mean, it would have been quite terrifying if the first day I clicked publish someone could have guaranteed me millions of views.

So toiling away in obscurity also has its advantages. It allows you to say dumb things and express them in clumsy ways without pretty much any negative repercussions. And being unknown also protects you from hordes of trolls. So you can get better at your craft while the stakes are low.
