I like this platform, and hope it succeeds, however I have a question for the community - what are everyone's thoughts on creators? I am one, for transparency-sake, and I am pretty sure we are not wanted here, since most of us have Adventures/ Art / Battle maps / Patreons / Kickstarters / Products to sell, even though we frequently give a lot of stuff for free to the community. Thoughts?

I think that for many users, the situation is not that different compared to back on Reddit, even there sharing things as a Creator was accepted, but only in a limited and reasonable way. Often subreddits required you to share some new free assets, and in that post you could then also promote your Patreon or store. But those assets should be high quality and usable, and not low effort or unusable stuff that is just used as an add.

Sharing Kickstarts is probably more difficult, I guess within the right community that would be fine. But except for the few larger kickstarters by the very large Creators, most D&D players would definitely consider those adds.

I am actually talking specifically about high quality free items that we frequently give to the community, and post our Patreons, shops etc along with them. It does not sound to me that would be allowed here, right? The instance itself prohibits ads.

So I am interested to see what the community thinks about it, given that none of that stuff will ever be permitted here, looks like.
