Curious what it’d be like if more platforms had profitable partnership programs like YouTube. Ex: • Reddit mods • Instagram models • Snapchat influencers • Popular Twitter accounts • StackOverflow power users 3rd party economies already exist for most of em, right?

Seems to me that most of these networks have even longer/slimmer perceived value tails than YT. As a ~20K SO author, I doubt I’ve produced more than ~$1K realizable value, across hundreds of hours invested. But maybe that’s the harshest market among the ones you mentioned.

Yeah, SO was the biggest stretch (I cut out FB group admins for character limit). They don’t all have to be careers for Americans though. Who knows what quality will still emerge at different dollar amounts. Also, YouTube’s payouts surprised me when I first heard em. Never know

Sure. I’ve been reading a lot of Jaron Lanier lately, so the notion of more souls equalling proportionately more value is dubious, but that might need correction, per se.
