Yes, we have millions of followers and social media is great for validation, but not so much for paying bills. Turns out, likes and shares don’t magically turn into rent money.
Platforms don’t pay us, and while some of you do (which we deeply appreciate), the conversion rate is… let’s call it laughably low. If exposure paid rent, we’d be landlords. But alas.
So, if you enjoy what we do and want to keep seeing it, Patreon is where that magic happens. No pressure – just an invitation to be part of the reason this stays sustainable.
