   I am strongly positive. I sponsor Patreons and other subscriptions, and I think they're pretty cool. I've supported some Substack authors, but not anymore. I'd like to see this pattern possible on the fediverse.

     @evan It is definitely possible, and implemented in my project Mitra. Here, "subscribers" and "followers" are different categories, and subscribers-only posts are published in a private group that uses mentions for targeting and therefore compatible with other popular micro-blogging platforms.

     A variant of FEP-0837 protocol is used for federated payments. People on servers that don't support FEP-0837 can make a payment by navigating to a special payment page.
