I've chatted with Chris and Hamish. Great guys, and the fundamental sanity they seem to be bringing to this is a big part of the reason I got on board in April 2019, about a year before the bluechecks began discovering it. But their job is going to be really tough here very soon.
No. They take 10% per sub, so it’s almost irrelevant whether it is 1 bluecheck with 50k subs, or 50 ordinary writers with 1k subs each. Long tail prob better since they may need to offer big whales lower commission deals. It’s a kind of progressive tax on bigger names actually.

I guess I was thinking fixed fee per writer, a la costco / prime (w some kind of free tier thrown in for smaller audiences). Regressive, but better aligns their business model w the long tail (forces them to grow writers, not subs) relative to per sub fees

the progressiveness of the per sub fee (without a cap) is exactly what makes them beholden to most "successful" writers
