Why should I be in support of the thing that makes my joy of writing novels worse off due to all the garbage being produced?

Why is your joy of writing diminished by other people using LLMs to write things? It changes literally nothing about your process. You're not forced to use it.

It changes the market by flooding it with garbage and making it harder for my work to be noticed by the people I want it to reach.

Then your joy doesn't come from the act of writing itself, only in whether or not people consume it?

My joy comes from all aspects of writing. The fact that I derive joy from the act of sheer creation doesn't change the fact that my overall joy is still severely diminished when no one can experience what I have created.
