Hey everyone!


I hope you're all doing well! Here is your fresh episode of the patroncast!


In this one, I talk about:

- 01:04 A hobbyist only internet, where no one can create content as a job, and what it might mean for the internet, and for me

- 12:31 Preparing for my vacation, and trying to accept that maybe I won't have anything to publish for a week

- 18:54 Thunderbird 115, and how the redesign is really cool, but there are a few issues to iron out (IMO, not everyone will agree on these, I suppose)


I hope you'll enjoy listening to this one, have a great week!

Honestly, I'd hate the just-hobbyist internet. I love how platforms like Youtube have allowed hobbyists to become professional creators. And find audiences that might be too small for television while still being able to make a living off of it. The quality has become incredible with some, and I doubt channels like yours would live on very long if not for monetization. I want to pay for good content (through Patreon for example), and feel that those creating it should be able to make a living from it. I feel like a lot of content being free and people no longer being willing to pay for things like newspapers is part of a huge problem. For example journalists not being able to deliver good quality anymore because their medium lacks subscribers. So no, I feel like a hobbyist internet is completely the wrong direction. Also, there's other currency than money. You mentioned political pursasion for example. But attention is also a currency some creators crave and will work for. Those will continue, while quality would in all likelyhood diminish greatly. We don't need less monetization, all of us consumers need to be willing to pay more for good content so creators get to make a good living.

That's a very rare take, but I understand where you're coming from. With less money will also come less quality on average.

Just watched the agency video recently, I think it was a bit over the top. Yes it was a bit more lively than your usual video, but that was just too much. The next video after that, for example, was much better in my opinion. While I do think there's stuff to take from them, I think you'll have to tone it down a bit to make the videos more tolerable.

Yeah, the first one was way too "frantic", they toned it down a lot for the next ones, but I'll definitely not keep this kind of pacing when I resume making videos myself, it's too much
