The king's rug pull. This is why open standards like podcast are much better than being in a walled garden. Monetization will be based on the quality of content and your own efforts towards it and not instant. Look at the ease to exit just like the ease of entry.
Amen.
Don't open your store in a mall. What if the mall closes or raises your rent?! (sarcasm!)
I mean it's good advice. Often you don't have a choice or at least the alternatives are so bad you'll hamstring yourself by avoiding a potential loss (eg Youtube).
There are risks on another's platform but there can be benefits too.
Here I am reading, following this reasonable argument and... boom pop-up "call to action" interrupts the hell out of it. I realize the conversion rate could be lower, but why not put this CTA in a non-pop-up form at the end of the article? If I really enjoyed it, that seems like the point where I'd be on board with signing up.
Web3 solves this.
This lesson extends to almost everything in life. Too many people wrap up their goals and aspirations to things that are really someone elses thing at the end of the day. It frequently doesn't end well. This is a really great article.
Definitely, it's not only about games, and not even only about marketing your content of whatever topic on SM.

Agreed. Just out of principle, I'm never signing up for anything that attempts this method.
The advice is, in essence, to prioritize your mailing list over audiences on proprietary platforms like Twitter and TikTok. This may work for some, but mailing lists seem like they would be really ineffective for a lot of use cases.

Really? What other countries offer such guarantee?
My country's TLD (.pt) holds Portuguese courts as the ultimate arbitrator. There are simpler administrative procedures for suspending or claiming domains, but in case of conflict courts have the final word. I imagine most countries' TLDs operate in the same fashion.
