so if I am reading this right this is a potential competitor to patreon?
Interesting concept. Let me pay some money that gets split between the sites I actually visit and get out of seeing ads - I wonder how many users of adblock today would use this instead. I guess the problem is that google isn't the only ad network.
- Filligree 12y agoRunning on the adsense network, though... I bet this'll be a powerful incentive for publishers who don't want to annoy their users to switch to adsense.
- TillE 12y agoPatreon has the key advantage of creating a direct emotional link with one person, or a small group of creators. Asking people to support a mostly faceless company is a much harder sell. There's an enormous gap between Mashable and Jim Sterling, or Red Letter Media. Creating something people care about is doable, but being someone that people care about is far more difficult for any of the listed publishers.
