Since March 2022, we have been paying folks for their time and effort. In 2024, we increased our payment for long-form articles from $50 to $75! We are hoping in 2025, we will be able to comfortably increase payments across the board!
With your help, we can work on increasing the pay for all creators, expand on our articles, and more! We also want to branch out into other forms of media, such as videos, podcasts, and live streams.
Love what we are doing? Why not help us out! There are multiple ways you can!

Join Our Patreon
Anyone who becomes a Patron will have their name listed automatically on our fancy Thank You page! This page will be linked at the end of every article we put out so everyone will know who is helping us!
We have a lot more goodies listed on our Patreon! Right now, our tiers have perks that are easy for us to track and fulfill without being overwhelming. As things get better, we plan on revisiting and adding more perks, but until then, what we have listed is the very least we can do to thank you.
Please take a moment, check them all out and if you are interested in helping out, consider becoming a Patron.
Make A Donation
If you do not have the ability to commit to helping us out month-to-month, but want to give a one-time donation, we also have a Ko-Fi & Paypal account as well. Any amount is greatly appreciated. Ko-Fi also allows you to donate monthly as well, so if it is easier for you and you’re okay with not receiving any perks (except a fancy Discord role), you’re welcome to do so. Whatever is comfortable for you!
Native Advertising
We are currently offering 1-month, 3-months, 6-month, and 12-month increments to include an ad on either of our two top performing articles or globally across the site. If you or your company is interested, please send us an email: yattatachi (‘at’) gmail (dot) com and we will send you your media kit and pricing list. We only work with companies that align with our goals and part of our industry. Anything that relates to AI/Crypto/NFTs will immediately be trashed.
