This saying needs to die. It doesn't matter what you love doing. Being compelled to do it at the behest of some other master to earn a place to sleep and food to eat, is work. Dependency on money corrupts the freedom that is inherent in the word love.
The curse of turning your hobby into a profession is that you will lose your hobby
Well, not necessarily although I guess it's true for a lot of people. I work as a programmer, but I coincidentally took a vacation day today to relax with my hobby: programming. The difference is that with my hobby project, nobody asks me what it's good for or how it will earn money. I just work on the stuff that's recreational for me, without having to satisfy anyone else.
I wish I could do recreational programming again. I have tried many times, but it’s no use.
Aside from game jams, it’s difficult for me to be motivated programming outside of work. And even in game jams I tend to focus more on 3D modeling.
This is one of those things that I really enjoyed but there isnt much to say (and no one has said much) and an upvote doesn't really feel like enough? Idk hi this is awkward I lol at your comic?? Wtf do you say idk oh well

This is such a Reddit reply to a normal comment.
Technically.
Do what you love and you will never work a day in your life because someone is always willing to do it for free. This is why game Dev is such a shit show
