For those who just submit to workshop [D]

More recently, I am seeing a lot of posts on the sub regarding the workshop acceptance, with lack of funds to attend the conference. I unfortunately want to just say that workshop papers are not given any importance in the community. I personally consider workshops to either get initial feedback, advertise my work, or just prefer to attend it for the discussions with the community members.

Thought of posting this as I am recently seeing some undegrads/masters students submitting 3-4 papers in the workshops. Even came across a Twitter profile, who had 6-7 workshops in 3 months, and claim to have the PhD worth of work done in three months.

Also please don't expect an explicit funding (apart from organizers, and in some cases your lab may fund it). There's huge problem with the funding, many students even don't it get for main venues. I definitely expect a lot of downvotes on this post, particular coz this is not what many would like to hear, but unfortunately is the reality.
