With all due respect. Did you ask yourself, where does X get the $$ to pay you, Joe?

Also: did you check this guy out: nostr:nprofile1qqstfvm3tmwkud4jhrwg6545a2yqslht4pc0nsay7hc4ddvkfp4sajsprfmhxue69uhkummnw3ezummjv9hxwetsd9kxctnyv4mqz9nhwden5te0wfjkccte9ec8y6tdv9kzumn9wsq3vamnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwdehhxarj9e3xzmny5r4tdg

My small take: on X you don't have to be explicit about collecting donations in order to earn. Here you need to act like a fundraising professional: while providing excellent content, don't be shy to beg for money a lot. Much more than you are comfortable with. The most effective (sats-wise) v4v podcasters are those who do.
