🧡 What's going on with PH tho? 🧡
As of April 1, they're switching to a new payout system for models. In this new system ("model tiers") they'll be stealing all my adrev - because I haven't uploaded anything new there since 2022, and switching to a new vague system where how much I get paid will directly correspond to how much I participate on the site. That is, instead of getting a flat adrev cut on views, I'll get an adrev cut based on how much I upload per quarter. (3 months)
The most egregious of the changes is how they want to completely demonetize any model who doesn't upload a 7 minute video every 6 months. Regardless of how "easy" that sounds, or all the simple pranky, spammy video ideas you can think of to make it so, it is still wrong to hold an artists' catalog and profits hostage in exchange for providing more content.
That is exploitation.
Imagine a book publisher just pocketing all the profits from an author's catalog and then saying "Actually, now I want you to provide me with a 5k word novel every month if you want to keep getting paid." You can insert any other art-producing job here and derive the same point: our content is being blatantly stolen and we're being forced and compelled to devalue it.
If this were happening in any other industry, there would be no contest or question about this exploitation and theft.
Please watch & like my reuploads here ♥ If this platform switch doesn't work I'll have to move them all behind the higher tier paywalls and I'd really prefer not to have to do that ðŸ˜
