🧠 Core Insight
Creators don’t want fame — they want freedom.
But the current system (YouTube, TikTok, Instagram) trades time for attention:
- No uploads = no income.
- Algorithms punish rest.
- Brand deals vanish when engagement dips.
VidMe flips that model by giving creators a way to earn lifetime recurring revenue through community ownership and affiliate sharing — meaning they can finally step off the hamster wheel and still get paid.
