Right now quite a lot of anime/ tv series reaction channels getting banned(or even terminated) on youtube. Do you think that some of those people would find Hive to be place to their liking? Most of them already has patreons so maybe they would consider Hive rewards too small?
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
"The median income for an OnlyFans creator sits around $150 to $180 per month"
And look what they have to do for the money....
I hear sometimes it's a real pain in the ass..
I think they'd like the feel of Hive, even if it's only a secondary channel, a kind of insurance against YouTube blocking them.
We might need to clarify our exact lines when it comes to IP, because there's a very grey boundary between showing some of someone else's IP using the Fair Use concept to comment on it, and those reaction channels which outright steal content and think it's okay if they play it all through but with a tiny icon in the corner where they make exaggerated "reaction" faces.
But probably the biggest problem is the chicken and egg; they'd bring an audience with them, but Hive probably doesn't have enough active users to be interesting to people who are used to getting millions of views.
Yes this seems to be correct. recently I started adding notification in my let's play posts that I did not create the game and that game is created by so and so. I may also even decline payouts of all my The Blood of Dawnwalker let's play parts because I believe that The Blood of Dawnwalker creators are stricter about monetization.( even if I think that this makes no sense if could not earn maybe a few dollars writing posts about it while big youtubers earn what hundreds? thousands playing it...)
Reaction chanels often have uncut/ full reactions on their patreons so maybe they would try posting full reactions on Hive as well...
That’s an interesting point. Hive could be a good fit for some of those creators since it offers freedom from sudden bans and a supportive community. But you’re right, many of them already rely on Patreon, so Hive rewards might feel small compared to what they’re used to. Still, Hive isn’t just about money; it’s also about building lasting connections and having a platform that values their content without fear of termination. For creators who care about community as much as income, Hive could be worth exploring. 🙏
It is true that some of the reactors may care about more than just money. But like other reply to my comment said we would need to make clear rules.
