Uhm… software and content creation? Exclude ads, fine. But I’d like to get paid for my work and that you won’t get your hands on my work until you pay me. If read the words “donate” or “honour system” in your reply I’m going to lose my shit.
And again, I’m not talking about paying for the platform, but for some content. Some content costs money to make, and people work for the money they put in and may naturally want returns. Why is that a bad thing? Why is people getting paid for their work a bad thing?
I’ll tell you what’s bad: people being dependant upon major platforms because it’s the only place to make money. It’s a self fulfilling prophecy giving way to much power and influence to the big corporations. Why wouldn’t you want to decentralise that?0
