Need more creator tools first for that to happen. Eventually you could have a lightning based Patreon or substack where users could pay a certain amount of sats per month for premium content.

What if the subscription/paywall model wasn't important to one of these folks?

Isn’t that the point of Locals?

I don't think it's the point. I think it's the model. The point was to have a place for creators to interact with their supporters that wasn't beholden to some Big Tech platform. I believe there are creators on Locals who don't put up a paywall.

I don’t know much about it. Other than it was supposed to compete with Patreon who was kicking off right wing content creators.

I think there are people on Patreon who give most of their content for free, too. The payments are just to support creator, like with Super Testnet's courses.

Im not a fan of those kind of services. Eventually the older users leave.
