When did churning out content, maximizing metrics and pushing for profit become standard for creator platforms?

At Ko-fi we don’t conform to that kind of ‘norm’.

Whether you’re making things and putting them out there or you’re showing the love for those that do – Ko-fi exists so that you can create, share, connect and support each other on your own terms.

Together we’re building a place where everyone can celebrate the joy of being free to explore your passions at your own pace.
