  • Sponsors pay more upfront. If creators are only using sponsors than their whole back catalogue is basically valueless. If it costs a creator 2-10 cents a month to host a video (based off S3 pricing), but they only made 1000$ on it upfront when the video was made, overtime the back catalogue becomes a pretty significant financial burden if it’s not being monetized

    Also it’s worth keeping in mind that many people are also using tools to autoskip sponsor spots, and the only leverage creators have for being paid by sponsors are viewership numbers.

    Patreon is irrelevant, that’s just like Nebula, floatplane etc, it’s essentially a subscription based alternative to YouTube.

    Discoverability is pointless if the people discovering you aren’t going to financial contribute. It’s the age old “why don’t you work for me for free, the exposure I provide will make it worth your time”, that hasn’t been true before and likely isn’t here. Creators aren’t looking to work for free (at least not the ones creating the high quality content we’re used to today)







  • From the posts I’ve seen so far, it feels like the community is stating that they only exist to criticize what they see as a misleading influencer, but to me it all comes off as bullying/harrassment.

    If they want to encourage change of some sort they could try and do that, but that’s not what the posts are encouraging, it feels like generic woman hate targeted at a single woman.



  • The post in this case isn’t even creded let alone creditable.

    Things like the NYT and Washington Post are only creditable in the sense they link to their sources when they can, and when they can’t they can stand behind their reputation because they do share sources when they can.

    But a single source isn’t enough to suggest that something is true. You as a reader need to be reading multiple sources and angles onbthebsake topic to get a healthy view on it, but those sources can’t be mostly opinion pieces (which is all you post).

    An opinion piece in the NYT or Washington Post is just as useless as the majority of what you’re posting.











  • I hesitate asking you for a source on what Russias new revenue streams are.

    GDP isn’t the same as revenue maybe that’s what you’re thinking?

    Russian oil production is down since 2019.

    It also feels like a stretch to assume you’re being downvoted for dogma related things when at this point that’s are multiple comments explaining how this post is misleading, this graph could be used as part of a larger argument, but as is it can’t be used as a conclusion.
