About this episode
Brad and Dave discuss how creators are reclaiming their power from platform dependence.
Today’s show is sponsored by Huion, makers of the Huion Kamvas 22 (Gen 3). The platforms we trusted to grow our audience have pulled the rug out from under us, and it’s time to take that control back. Brad and Dave explore how creators are reclaiming their power by ditching platform dependence, rebuilding direct connections through newsletters, webrings, and other community tools.
