Florence Foster Jenkins is a perfect example of this.
I agree. I don't even really care if people enjoy what I create either, I just want to be able to make things that make me happy.

Music made by amateurs for amateurs
Thank you for the advice! I haven't really heard of dungeon synth before, but I'll check it out. This was the last attempt I had at composing, it's quite old (and short).
I really struggle with developing the (few) musical ideas that I have, so most of what I do ends up being really short melodies. One day I'd like to be able to write stuff that's good. Two composers in particular that I'm really inspired by are Yasunori Nishiki (known for the Octopath Traveller OST) and wintermute (relatively obscure vocaloid producer).
I think I'm also held back a bit by not knowing how to play any instruments. I plan to buy a keyboard when possible and start learning, hopefully that'll happen some time this year.
