around the fireplace

Isn't that the ONLYFANS model? . . Forgive my naivety, I didn't know there was Patreon, and the first reaction when I saw the fire was ONLYFANS. In order to long-wind this article, I did some homework scribbly. It turns out that Patreon is earlier than ONLYFANS, and Patreon-style is already a Jargon.

Returning the revenue rights of content to the creator, ONLYFANS has almost succeeded in revolutionizing the traditional porn industry, but Patreon-style has subverted other traditional media. . . I don't know.

Speaking of matters, I myself use it almost as a personal blog here. However, because of the existence of three or two real readers, the coding here will be more serious than the blog. That "publish" button is a very effective external constraint.

Now that it's "published", of course, we start to look forward to readers. That slap is in the lower left corner, of course expecting the numbers to grow. But I also keep reminding myself that this is not what I am here for. I'm not a very self-disciplined person. So far, the biggest benefit of matters to me is that this external constraint prevents me from always talking to myself and nonsense, and it also gives me a little more motivation to be a creator. rather than just being a listener. Furthermore, for a person who immigrated only at the age of 40, life is somewhat lonely, and there will probably be no more eloquent discussions in the past. matters is also an alternative, better than whispering in the mirror.

Different people use the same tool in different ways. I have no problem with the perimeter, I am optimistic about its success. But whether it’s matters or a fireplace, if you don’t have your own traffic, it’s very hard to accumulate from 0, and the probability of success will not be higher than any other industry. The last time I went back to Beijing, I found that there were more brick-and-mortar stores on the street. Someone told me that in some cases, the cost of acquiring customers online is already higher than the rent. Ha ha. . .

I can especially understand the difficulties of several founders. They are all elites, and it is rare to stay in this barren field for the sake of feelings. I just don't know how long the matters will last. enjoy!
