downshift

the tipping “meta” only needs to sustain long enough for the network to reach a critical mass of participation. many people spend all day on Reddit with zero profit motive

with that said, i hope it survives long enough to provide content creators with a viable alternative to the ad model 🙏 

(micropatreon, microsubstack, microgumroad, etc.)

working on infra to displace adtech at /microsub • dance music lover + host of /campfire 🎧

lets bolster the best of the lot in the meantime

tools like urs are essential expansion tools

ham allows for communal development much more powerfully. built different

this is the direction that needs a push for ham yes. less circle jerk tipping. more cultlike evangelical type tipping for stuff that is just cool and we like.

less lotteries…more “i want your bills paid so i can support your talents”
