Creators need to own their membership lists. The problem: if you have paying subscribers to your content every platform you use tries to own your membership list & take their cut. Take rates: YouTube "Channel Memberships" - 30% Apple "Podcast Subscriptions" - 30% Substack Paid Posts - 10% Twitter Subscriptions - 10%

But worse than the take rate is the lock in. Want to host discord chat for paying subscribers only? SORRY Substack membership is for your Substack content only. Someone pays $10 a month for your YT Channel Membership...does this give them access to the Members-only podcast feed in Apple? Nope!

Surprised you’re not already on @fabric Hypersub with those crazy take rates.

💯 @basemint is building a membership list for creators with single click email signups, private chat and exclusive benefits where the creator owns all the contact info.

@rsa.eth FC is different right? I can’t find a clear answer. Let’s pretend @dwr.eth bans you from WC. You then move to another FC app. Will I (a WC app user) be able to see your casts? If yes then you do own your membership list. If no then It’s like gmail blocking yahoo emails.

What about also something as basic as payments? How much Stripe, Paypal, Gumroad, Lemonsqueezy and such get in their pockets for basic internet transactions

The value that these large tech firms have by keeping your social graph locked into their eco-system is amazing. Imagine you could just switch from YouTube to another client that would charge you just fee for hosting/streaming the videos + small markup and you got to keep the revenue you generated
