I can get how tough it is to make music pay. It has never been easy, but things have shifted over time in how people 'consume' music and many expect it to be free. A lot will not buy physical media any more. I saw something years ago about needing 1000 'true fans' who buy everything you put out to make it pay. These days some use Patreon or other apps to get fans to subscribe for a steady income.

I always thought Hive could offer an alternative. If enough fans vote up all your posts then that's some income plus the fans are earning too from curation and whatever else they do here. I just don't think any musicians have enough fans on Hive to make it pay, but I appreciate those who stick with us and support what I can.

I wish you all the best with your music.
