As many have already said, your problem is not with your cake designs or your talent, but with your interaction with the group. You have been a member for 2-1/2 years, but you are only following five people and have “Faved” very few pieces and made very few comments. There are 10 people following you, so you are (theoratically) receiving twice as much love as you are giving. You have stated that it makes you feel good to receive positive comments from others. It feels good to everyone else, too. If you spread a lot of love, follow your favorite artists and comment and fave their posts, people will get to know you, follow your work and the comments and interaction will come back your way. Sharing our love of the art with others is the only reason to be a member of a cake group.
I also appreciate June’s quote, “comparison is the thief of joy”. The Desiderata has a line that I’ve tried to remember, “If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain and bitter; for always there will be greater and lesser persons than ourself.”
