    Making any content takes time, money, and labor. Nobody can keep making content, especially high-value content, with just “passion.” That’s why all those peertube videos (that are solely based on peertube and not other platforms) are always low quality low effort videos which provides no value to most people

      I must have written it in a confusing way or something, because people seem to have missed my point.

      I’m making an argument that we need to be supporting creators who do it for passion. I’m not saying they shouldn’t make any money from it, I’m literally saying the opposite thing. They already do it for free, and we should donate to them more.
