Ok, so you haven't found a way to extend the earnings from a video, it's still connected to the 7 day upvote period from what I've read. It's just clarification-neither good or bad...
I've wanted to find something like YouTube that my content can continue earning strictly from views, but that only works if there are ads or someone willing to compensate perpetually...that's also why I keep posting there instead of on Hive. I have posted a few of my videos on the chain in the past for the couple bucks up front. Pretty much at this point, though, it seems that the only videos that I could perpetuate earnings from would be videos with affiliate links for people to purchase stuff I discuss in the video...this way it is still an evergreen video with links to perpetual income possibilities. Then, the only concern is how few there are watching. Having done videos for nearly a decade, I know it takes time to build a following, even on the largest platform. I'll take a look at cast.garden...Before I start posting on one of these video platforms, I just want to make sure it will have the name that can grow it to a larger viewership. With only 7 days of earnings possibilities and a site revisit rate of a few people, it isn't enticing yet...I know...egg meet chicken and vice versa.
I'm intrigued...
