Which requirements are difficult to meet? The highest hurdles I see is receiving 10 gold in a 12-month period and making sure your content isn't porn/gore/drugs. I think reddit blows, but this doesn't seem like difficult-to-obtain goals for somebody trying to make some extra scratch.

Yeah, I went through a few pages and they don’t seem unattainable. The hardest would probably be living in a country that isn’t included

Yeah, and while the country thing sucks, it's at least a quick "yes/no" answer before you even start trying. This isn't a deceptive lure like roblox, where they entice millions of kids to try to monetize their content, but make it exceptionally hard to actually make a profit or to even cash out (and even if you meet their ridiculous requirements, there is a huge imbalance of exchange rates when converting to and from a real currency to robux).
