  1. So Twitch streamers apparently get:
    1.5-2.5 USD/(h*CCV)

    Is that actually true? That sounds kinda odd.

  3. Environmental crime or wildlife crime are crimes which are destructive or extractive to nature
    "Crime and punishment in the outback: A review of extractive and destructive green crime cases in Australia's criminal justice system."

    " Illegal activities harming the environment and aimed at benefiting individuals or groups or companies from the exploitation of, damage to, trade or theft of natural resources, including, but not limited to serious crimes and transnational organized crime"

    "In 2018 a farmhand in rural Victoria, Australia, was found guilty of the illegal killing of over 400 wedge-tailed eagles (Aquila audax), a large and long-lived bird of prey which is protected under the Wildlife Act 1975 (Vic) "

  4. Crime against wildlife is surging in Australia
    Flogging off native animals and plants

    " Around the world, wildlife and environmental crime is surging. It is estimated to be the fourth largest organised transnational crime sector, and to be growing at a rate two to three times faster than the global economy."

    "This is a considerable problem, because Australia has unique and endemic wildlife species, high extinction rates, and is a country that is difficult to police due to its sheer size and vast remote areas. Our new, Australia-first study addresses this knowledge gap."

    "We don’t understand the full extent and impact of these crimes in Australia, but we do know they can be disastrous. Wildlife trafficking and illegal trade erodes biodiversity through the removal of native species from their habitats. It also fuels the spread of invasive species, parasites and diseases."

    "Over half of the environmental crimes (61.3%) occurred in outer regional and remote areas of Australia. "

  5. I see quite some posts on the topic of #monetisation on the #Fediverse. My opinion, in its simplest form, is that #ActivityPub connects people. In open, transparent and, yes, free ways. Think of AP as TCP/IP, but for people

    With that in mind, note that TCP/IP itself has no features for monetisation. That is done on top of the protocol. This is how I would like to see monetisation in the fediverse too. As a separate thing on top of AP, never as inherent part of AP. My 2 cents (pun intended)

    1/3

  6. I am considering this option in my life: the ability for people to pay me money, in return for my opinions and understandings. I believe this is part of the attention economy and the information and data economy, where engagement must be reciprocal and mutually beneficial. It seems that my attention and understanding are not yet widely sought after, so it makes sense to implement this.

  8. @lowqualityfacts Done, followed on insta…

    How does the monetisation work on Insta?

    For every X followers you receive Y amount? Do you also need other types of engagement on Insta or is follows enough?

  9. Google Adsense Ads Removed

    Reading Time: 2 minutes

    For years, or even decades I have had Google Adsense on my site, and I have been paid several times over the years. In recent years though Google Adsense has flooded my site with ads, but has not flooded me with revenue so yesterday I removed the ads.

    For a while we had to tell Google Adsense where we wanted ads, and how we wanted them to be displayed. With time they gave us the option "Let google place the ads automatically" out of practicality, but Google placed ads so aggressively that legitimate sites looked like spam sites. I felt that way about my own blog.

    Initially I thought, "If I blog daily, and generate traffic, I might get revenue from ads again" but in a period of months I get three or four francs. When you consider the impact that these ads have on user experience (UX), it isn't worthwhile. People browse to the site, see multiple ads and think "This is a spam site, I'm bouncing" and it's reflected in the metrics that Google Analytics collects from our site.

    Within this context, it's a shame that Google doesn't test ad placement, and bounce rate. If it did it would probably find that its own aggressive ad placement is affecting site, and blog, stickiness.

    Ad Alternatives

    Google Adsense and Amazon Associates were interesting opportunities a decade ago, when the web was still young. These days, with ad blockers, and higher barriers to entry for Amazon Associates, it makes sense to think of alternatives.

    Buy Me a Coffee

    Including Buy me A Coffee is quick and easy via the WordPress Plugin, and it's less invasive than Google Adsense ads. People contribute if they want to.

    Patreon

    Podcasts and YouTube channels like to use Patreons to get monthly contributions for their content, instead of relying on ads on YouTube and in podcasts. Some podcasters, such as the BBC have automated ad injection in podcasts, so if you're listening to an English podcast, and you get loud, french ads, in Switzerland, it is deeply upsetting, to the point that I abandon podcast series that I like. Ads need to be part of the flow, and, when you're out on a walk, pleasant.

    With ad injection by a number of podcast RSS feeds, the ads are so loud and obnoxious that podcasts, that I loved, are abandoned and I unsubscribe.

    Sponsors and Direct Ads

    For years now, I have thought that direct advertising, and sponsors, would be more effective than Google Adsense and other forms of monetisation. As they're direct, you can control how integrated ads are, to the look of the site. If they're domain relevant, then they contribute to the site, rather than detract from it.

    And Finally

    For years it has puzzled me that Google does not follow its own best practices advise, when it comes to automated ad placement via their wordpress plugin. Google has direct access to data about how ad placement affects bounce rate, and yet they continue.

    Now to see if the bounce rate declines.

  13. Ah #Monetisation in my #GameDesign book. It's an touchy topic in any way, but one technique is the worst of all: for € 11,49 you can get 1750 gems and that nice suit of armour costs 1111 gems.

    With one step, nobody really knows how much the suit costs, but we all know you are left with 639 gems after buying and you need to buy some more gems to "prevent it from being wasted", because a backpack costs 800 gems and your almost there. And you have 2 minutes to decide... and counting... 1:54 now..

  14. I know the outcome of the presidential election in #Romania has a web of complex reasons. But it would be ludicrous to ignore the dangerous impact that #bigtech's laissez-faire and its #trackingads and content #monetisation business model has. Not only #tiktok but also #google and #meta:

  15. Who else here remembers a time when you could search for a #wordpress plugin, and you got a fully functioning plugin?

    Not a “Lite” plugin version, with a “Pro” version available. Plugins that maybe at worst had a one-off fee, not a yearly subscription per site?

    Same with themes.

    I only use wordpress because for someone time-poor, theres nothing else that comes close for user-friendliness. But the #monetisation of every aspect of it sure is making it a miserable experience.

    open.spotify.com/episode/39CC7

    The line between #digitalgames and gambling is blurring in the past decade, especially with the advent of #monetisation of videogames. #Children are particularly vulnerable, as they are progressively exposed to #gambling in their games, potentially leading to problematic behaviour. ⬇️
