Yes - I’ve had some of my favourites not get past the ‘fresh’ stage, but others I’d thought less of get through to ‘popular’. Saying that, I’m getting better at telling which ones are worth submitting and which aren’t.
What I’ve learned:
- my personal interests and hobbies aren’t in themselves interesting to other people.
- what people like seems to be a strong, clear subject, a story, and some emotion depicted or implied
