Artist pet peeves master thread

On the topic of economic digital devices VS "brand", yeah, a lot of people justify the "brand" price with durability and accessibility (it's easier to find brand products locally, thus no need to buy from the internet, and they're usually easier to set up), but  I think what most fail to realize is that, usually when you're just starting -especially if you're from a different country- it's way easier to save up 200 bucks to get a product of similar quality that can last up to 4, or even more years if you take care of it, than it is to save $600 or anywhere near $900. At that point I'd just buy a new super computer or a Samsung tablet.

OT: I hate that TikTok is making social media revolve more around multimedia. That's adding the need to learn video editing on top of drawing skills. At which point are we gonna say enough is enough? Being an artist really is choosing to suffer...

Honestly, I don't get the emphasis on brand name. I use a like 60 USD graphics tablet and the only issue I really have is that 90% of the time if the pens are sold seperately, they're sold out(My cat ate my last tablet pen.) Wasn't even difficult to set up. Literally just installed the driver and it was go time.

As for a peeve of my own...I hate the dreaded 'Did the lines on the wrong layer'. Especially since I end up having to redo the lines cause by that point my program autosaved and won't let me undo past that point.
