hmm i agree about fanmerch and I disagree about attitude for fanfic or fanart. i don't think it's bad, and I'm glad people aren't as scared of lawsuits as they were (or rather creators suddenly realized they could use artistic fan passion for free promo), but there was far fewer people advertising commissions and prompting tips or even chapters for paypals. many youtubers stream more than they do longform OR shortform now and it's mostly so people will give them tips. i also think something like the taylor swift fans selling bracelets? at least some of that would have been handed out instead of sold as part of simple fan fervor.

i think it's fine, but i think the attitude was different.

eta: as someone who rarely if ever buys merch fan or otherwise, almost all of the fan-made stuff I have I got when I was much younger and I didn't pay for it, so that's exactly one data point.

Anon who has been in fandom since the 90s and agreed. I have tons of random fan-made stuff that people just gave out for free at cons at the time.

Pretty sure it's because YouTube has a major habit of demonetizing anything and everything at the drop of a hat for the user, so they can't even get ad revenue on those essays you so love... While YT still rakes in the cash on it. :|

the people streaming aren't the people in danger of demonetization.

but yes youtube does suck, idk try nebula?

[(Anonymous)]

That was... Entirely my point???? People moved to streaming because normal video essays were getting slammed.

[meadowphoenix]

no it wasn't. the streamers I'm talking about weren't getting demonetized to begin with. they weren't using stuff from aggressive IP companies. hope that helps.
