It's not just that I'm good at social media.

I mean, I am.  I haven't shed enough ego to get rid of that bit of it quite yet...

It's also that I'm good at creating a virtual community.

On my main platform, I don't just have an audience, I have a virtual village.  They support me, but they also follow and support each other.  They've all grown with me in the comments of my post and in my various private groups.

Being good at social media isn't just about content.

It's about connecting.

Devotional polytheist living a monastic lifestyle centered on curiosity, simplicity, and joy.  Exploring the intersection of technology and spirituality.

I think a lot of that is because they come at it thinking of how they can make money first.  When I started on social media, it was because I wanted to connect to other people in a way that worked for my very introverted self.  The growth came from there as I got better and better at both content and connection.

Which I think a lot of people kind of either forget or maybe never realize while they’re mucking about on social media

Well said. The village-building skill is the foundation for your success. 

It's fairly well-known (if not always well-acknowledged) in crypto that building a real community is a heavier lift than the tech... and you've already done it. 

Lots of folks who are striving to build a "monetizable audience" could (and should!) learn from your approach.

Community is the goal.  Money is necessary for survival yes, but people who you can relate to, connect with and exchange support are essential to live.
