Good points about JS and Tor, thank you! >That's apparently become such a technological challenge I suppose it's more of an organizational challenge. Various factors like the difficulty of quantifying product- or service-manager productivity, or mistaking casual mass audience for core, engaged audience, etc. Our culture still perceives interactive services and electronic content way too heavily through the lens of factory-like production of more countable widgtes, rather than of culture-and-religion like managing by making opinionated decisions, integrating things into cohesive, fractal form, and building lasting epic stories. >There's no reason i should subsidize evil capitalist shareholders with the little money i have to live Since I disagree with your stance :-) I'll propose a middle ground: try to compare various available payment/contribution channels with regards to: how large % they forward to the creator vs the cut taken, and how small is the channel's undue influence on the host socio-political system and the creators. Notably the (traditional) banking system, including some "bridge" companies like PayPal, fail the later part very much; they extend undue influence both broad socio-political, and also over the creators. Conversely, a specialized "patronize your favorite creator" services like SubscribeStar seems to be quite neutral. Of course nothing beats a direct payment :-)
