I think zaps will replace all advertisement driven online content in the long run, because consumers will pay a lot more.

If you watch a YouTube video with ads, that makes about 1$/1000 views.

I would pay 10x that, 1 cent per view, just so I don't have to watch ads.

Maybe creators expect too much or reach a too small audience 🤔

We’ve been trained to think in terms of needing more followers and more likes because that’s what platforms say you need to make any money. But they say that because that’s actually what the platform needs, because you having more followers gives them more eyes to show ads to, and more likes helps them understand what kind of ads to show to each person.

V4V makes it about you and the art/artists again. Artists can create what they love and people who love it can enjoy it without being manipulated by algos driving some corporate agenda.

That's true!

You can see that especially in content with a small audience, like artist drawing commission for furry porn getting hundreds of dollars for a picture.

But a big fanbase will still be necessary for V4V right?

People are not gonna pay 5-10 bucks for a Minecraft video or a podcast 🤔

Or maybe I'm not as much of a fan 🤷‍♂️

I think I would pay a dollar for an interesting podcast tho

10 cents if it was meh

Build around authenticity in your content with your most dedicated and diehard listeners/viewers/readers/community, and find ways to give back to them. People are more generous than you think.
