I don't get funding from LBRY.. the only funding I received was for the video review that I did specifcally for their project. Neither youtube, nor LBRY, nor Dtube give me any kind of funding. I publish my content across all sorts of platforms for the most exposure. If I only published to LBRY, I would be seriously decreasing my views. I mention LBRY as often as I can when talking about content platforms because I like the project, not because they pay me or because I'm obligated to. Im not exactly sure what about that seems untrustworthy? You can ask the team directly about any funding, I don't receive anything.
