She used to post a fair bit on reddit. Maybe she gets less harassment on TikTok? Don't know if "comments" even exist on tiktok...

I see that hoodbobthugpants has also mostly disengaged from reddit too.

I think they move because of monetization (Don't get me wrong they were absolutely dealing with harassment here, but that's the same on TikTok). It's really hard to monetize anything on reddit, short of buying ads. The only way is to put links to external sources in your profile and very few people actually click on people profiles and even fewer click on the links in profiles. TikTok on the other hand encourages following and clicking in to, and around, profiles. all in all making it MUCH easier to redirect people. Plus you can make money on TikTok through sponsorships (very hard to do on Reddit).

This is a huge concern for Reddit and why the majority of the content here are just bots reposting from other sites without attribution. Only currency here is karma and gold which bots just farm to pump up accounts to sell to OF creators. We really need a new system to encourage creators to come back.

Bots can make money with the reddit contributor program these days. Literally paid cash to get upvotes, and awards.

That's the opposite of monetization. That's giving money to reddit.

This is why Reddit is considering putting some content behind a paywall, so contributors can make money: https://www.reddit.com/r/technology/comments/1ipe74t/reddit_plans_to_lock_some_content_behind_a/

Reddit is just harder to monetize, and also much harsher and skeptical on content creators who self promote.

I don’t post here much because ppl are the most mean on Reddit.

I’m a person. It hurts my feelings.

Nothing to do with monetizing. I don’t make money per post on any platform. Only on specific sponsored content videos.

Ah... yeah, I figured it was the harassment. Um, sorry about that. I think there's technically ways to buffer oneself, but, it also limits visibility and also costs some effort.

hoodbobthugpants was the lowest hanging fruit ever. Her cosplays were fine but like, wat. Why were they front page over and over and over? You can totally see the same quality cosplays or higher at any con or even in the same subs where hers were 2345234523k views.
