Hey Austin!

Nice update. Been meaning to reach out to you re web monetisation, as I know a lot of our work overlaps. Been following what you've been up to for sometime through Resonate.

We've had some breakthroughs as to how to dynamically use web monetisation for music streaming and would love to chat about it. Would fit nicely with the direct-to-artist model.

Let me know where I can reach you and possibly demo something. Interested in collaborating.

Cheers,
Antonio

Cool stuff, I think we should compare notes too :) I’ll be posting my grant report at the weekend, but we’ve built direct to artist payments into audiotarky. Still in beta, and need to grow artists & then listeners, but the tech is there, we’ve got some more to open source, and hopefully have some data on how effective it is for revenue to musicians ~soon.

Hi @austinrobey love the work you all are doing. Have you considered reposting the full text on this platform and having your payment pointer attached? Because this community space has one of the highest concentration of WMized participants on the web, it can actually bring a return. Also more people might read your updates directly as lots of people won't follow a link. Just a thought. Love the progress1

That's ace @austinrobey . Is there more planned like allowing individual artists to add their own payment pointers similar to DEV, Hacker Noon, Hashnode and others?
