A little about why I decided to stay indie moving forward:
It has somehow reached a point where there are oddly more benefits being indie than if I were to do studio work.
The biggest being I own and decide what I do with my work.
For decades animation workers have given IP for a flat paycheck

may port by the sea rise to great heights! (or sail to great waves in this case?)
The other being the fact that I dont have to hold back on hard to swallow topics and appease parents. I can tell stories that tackle themes like grief, religion, and manipulation of others without having to pamper the audience.
More and more art and the importance of it feels dying or dead. Stories can change peoples lives.
Why Would i give any of that away for the end result of being kicked out before a season 2 and treated like trash. Left to find the next gig praying its even possible
Hopefully the growing market for indie productions will eventually pave the way for a whole new studio system altogether because the one we have now, despite the good stuff we continue to get from it, really has become so irreparably broken.
