I made a Yours.org account when it was launched and then forgot about it. Today I tried to buy a bit of Bitcoin Cash and I made a blog post. But looking around I didn't see much happening.
I guess that what makes a site works these days is two things - it is free, it is easy to use.
Patreon is not free, but easy to use.
Facebook is free and easy to use.
Steemit is free and easy to use.
A site like Liberapay.org (here is my account) where I weekly receives 2.5 € is, even though it is the cheapest way of supporting an artist, not very used as you have to open an account and put in a larger amount of money. Many people (partly the part of my lazy self who exists before the rational part takes over and kicks the lazy part into partly oblivion) will rather pay a monthly dollar even though it costs more on Patreon (more fees and less money to the artist) than going through the painful process of paying the actual amount it all sums up to in a year anyway.
Yours have this problem too. You have to invest in some bitcoin cash and then you have to give it away to good blogging just like that. But why use bitcoin cash if you can simply pay an artist you follow in fiat money on Liberapay?
I have written an introduction to the Katharsisdrill project and now I await the money :) I hope that people will pay creators on the internet some more and the yours.org website is trying to make that possible - not sure if it will take off though...
I will probably earn more on this post about Yours.org, but let's see what happens.
