DESAFIO DO PESQUISADOR!

Pensar um formato e linguagem que interesse e seja viável que criadores de conteúdo TEC (ou influenciadores) acessem um conteúdo curto na área da pedagogia (iniciação pedagógica) e avaliem esse conteúdo e o espaço onde ele está.

Como fazer isso pra garantir pelo menos alguns topem avaliar esse ""produto" educacional?

Será que eles topariam? Quem toparia?

Aceitando dicas...

The inestimable @catvalente@mastodon.world has a post up describing in detail the ways in which #Patreon's most recent set of changes screw #creators. tl,dr: Most Patreon creators' Patreon income just dropped by 30% with no changes to subscriptions. Almost a third of their Patreon income: POOF, overnight. And this is ON TOP of the previous set of changes Patreon made that also screwed creators.

It's even worse, I understand, if you use the Patreon app. And worse
yet if you use it on iOS. Because if you use the Patreon app on iOS, Apple extracts a 30% vigorish as well, and Patreon subscriptions through the iOS app additionally face a ridiculous 75 day hold. Nearly three months during which Patreon earns interest on your money before passing about two thirds of it on to the creator you're trying to #support.

This impacts
every creator on Patreon.


What can you do?

Don't subscribe through the Patreon app.

Don't subscribe through the Patreon app.

Don't subscribe through the Patreon app.

I'll repeat that one more time for people who didn't get it:
Do. Not. Subscribe. To anyone. Via the Patreon. App. There is nothing about the Patreon app that is good except for Patreon's owners. If you have an existing subscription via the app, consider at the very least canceling it, WAITING FOR THE BILLING CYCLE TO EXPIRE, and the re-subscribing using a web browser.

The viability of Patreon is diminishing fast. Greed is once again killing the golden goose. Patreon
started out as a way to support creators. Now the creators are the product. There are other platforms for supporting creators — KoFi, Libera Pay, to name two — but forklift-migrating entire communities wholesale to them is not easy.


What else can you do?

If you want to support a creator, ask what platform is best
for them. They may have their own subscription page that does not use Patreon. (Randy Cassingham of This Is True, for example.) If you use Patreon, do not use the Patreon app to subscribe. Open the site in a browser and subscribe that way.

Continued thread

Not everything on the internet is real. Case in point: Your relationship with OnlyFans creators, it turns out. Two former subscribers from Illinois are suing the company because they thought they were talking directly to the platform’s stars rather than agencies hired to manage their messages. @404mediaco’s Samantha Cole explains more [Story may be paywalled].

"In the previous article in this series I covered what it’s like to use PeerTube from the point of view of a casual user... Today’s post will discuss: how to use the software as a video creator – and its advantages over video hosting platforms by Big Tech companies."

"There’s also been an impulse by #creators concerned about #AI to dramatically limit how people can access their work…This too closes off the #commons, making it more challenging or expensive for those “every single human beings” described in #openaccess manifestos to access the material that was originally intended to be #commongoods.

Often by trying to wall off those considered to be bad actors, people wall off the very people they intended to give access to."
