Before I opened memberships again, there were already people who kept supporting me when I had nothing active. On Fourthwall, FlusteredCustard has been subscribed for 9 months, even when memberships were closed, and they even chose the highest tier for 20 dollars per month. That means so much to me and gave me motivation to start again.
And on Patreon, my very first attempt at memberships, there are still two people who have been supporting me for a long time: ナツイコ has been with me since December 2023, and TdogDragon has been supporting since July 2023. Even if I never posted there, they decided to keep their subscription alive for almost a 2 years.
I cannot describe how much this kind of support means to me. It shows that you believe in me and what I create. Thank you for staying with me when there was nothing to gain. That is true support and I will never forget it 💜
You rarely see ads on my channel. I don’t do freelance, I don’t work at a studio, I don’t take commissions, and I don’t have any sponsors at the moment. So you might wonder… how do I actually make a living?
So I thought it would be fun to share a little behind-the-scenes about how it works for me.
Most of my income comes from your support: merch, donations, memberships, and even when you simply watch my videos (through YouTube monetization). All of these small things add up, and that’s what keeps the channel alive. Of course, sometimes I get sponsorship offers in my email, but I accept them so rarely that they make up only about 3–5% of my income.
That’s why when I say “my channel exists ONLY because of your support”, It’s not just a phrase, it’s the truth. And I want to say thank you for that. 💜
