Ultimately, I found that basically no one makes any money off Patreon or GitHub Sponsors. I mean statistically. Sure there are big names you and I know of out there, but the income of OnlyFans creators is orders of magnitude higher.
But of course, I doubt they'd ever share the distribution of income for users off those platforms. You'd realize there's no point.
- throwaway2037 4y agoExactly right. This is the superstar phenomenon of single commercial actors on the Internet -- YouTubers, Open Source product owners, self-publishers, etc. Far less than 1% "make it big", then eventually v/blog about how to be successful just like them in five easy steps. Many great bloggers eventually write that awful post about "writing is the best skill to have". Barf. I do agree about OnlyFans. Due to social constraints, it does seem easier to make "middle class" money than YouTubing/OpenSourcing/Self-Publishing.
