Put anything out there and someone will criticize it. That’s the tax on being brave, not a sign to stop.

The moment work becomes visible it becomes something people can have opinions about, including people who have never made anything. Criticism is not evidence that you did badly. It is evidence that you did something in public, which is a completely different fact.
Decide in advance whose opinion you will actually weigh, maybe two or three people who understand the work. Everything else can be read once and put down. Keep posting anyway, because the tax is real but it is not a penalty.
What have you kept private to avoid one predictable critic?
Free, with nothing to buy inside it.
