Is it? Looks like this video is "locked" on Patreon requiring "this post and more exclusive work. Join for $10/month" yet got, as of now, 329 611 views ... so are they just making $3M/month or is it not really working?
What are you talking about? The video is free on YouTube. Patreon is just another way of supporting the channel beyond the usual ad-sense, sponsors, etc.
No one is expecting them to make a fortune over night, but it at least shows there is space for new people. This video was actually push into my feed by youtube which is rare for new creators. So they clearly are doing pretty well in the grand scheme of things.
What do you mean with "What are you talking about?" while my comment literally post to the Patreon account and I copy/pasted their message.
The comment of the video also says "Thanks for the support!" whereas I (maybe you are a subscriber to their Patreon but I know I'm not) have not contributed anything.
Does this look normal to have locked videos behind a paywall then have it public and free elsewhere?
PS: I obviously didn't expect them to make this amount (even though it would be nice) only trying to highlight that there is a mismatch and thus trying to understand what the problem is, namely is that video actually meant to be public.
And are doing exceptional things (like building their own cleanroom in a shed)
Content creation was always about content. If you can make something special and engaging, audience will come.
