I am truly happy for you that you are getting joy and encouragement. At the same time I worry about v4v and sugar coating the problems with it does not help the concept that we all want to succeed.
V4v simply is not economically viable at all. If this weren’t the case you wouldn’t see such abysmal numbers at Wavlake and Fountain. There’s almost no money in v4v. I think there has to be some much more radical strategy shifts to change that.
Maybe it’s the agorist approach of taking advantage of the black markets developing around free speech and privacy in Europe. I’m thinking a high quality subversive sub stack type anon or musician that is black balled in their country but finds refuge (and brings an audience!) to the v4v stack.
Spitballing. Somebody hit me with some ideas grounded in reality.
