... I'm not saying that I can predict the future. I didn't expect Elon to send out a stupid email like that. But, you know, it was predictable.

Are we are talking about helping creators earn a living without sacrificing creating freedom? Oh boy, that is something I know quite a lot about! Let me share how we built this infrastructure on Tumblr and how we run a marketplace on top of App Store👇
