Hey I’d settle for 10 million likes on YouTube… In views alone thats worth like $100k in ad revenue. But given that likes are typically only 10% of viewership, that means a video liked by 10 million probably has 100 million views. Which is about $1 million in ad revenue for just that video, assuming a low end payout of $0.01 per view.
That’s not a low end payout per view. Typically it’s a fraction of a cent (USD) per view. Typically ads pay out per 1000 views, and the average of that is $0.38. To make the math easier, we’ll call it $0.50 per 1000 views, or $0.0005 per view. On top of this, YouTube takes their 45% cut, which means you’re looking at more like $0.00025 per view. Of course, that’s the average, and for a larger channel with the right audience you’re more likely to see a CPM (cost per mille, mille being 1000 in French) of a few dollars. Let’s call it $5.00, which would come to a CPM of $0.005, or roughly $0.0025 after YouTube takes their cut. That’s still $25,000 for 10 million views, which is a ton of money, but I think people have a tendency to overinflate how much money comes from Youtube ads.
I remember my first up vote
2k on Lemmy? that would be like all of us 😂
Hey, it’s happened once in the past month!
I have a 265 comment upvote. That’s like 30% of the lemmy population.
SatanMCF got a -185 vote once, and I presume that wasn’t its bottom. (he’s against OHS)
Show me.
I’m impressed…
I got one post (not comment) over 600 and I felt like I was elected mayor or something
I’ve got a 118 and I’m pretty sure I’m almost a cult leader now.
200 here and it was
porn
Foodporn, something i coocked and ate
Coocked, that’s some new word
200 here
584 here!
But it was during the Reddit exodus and an off-the-cuff complainpost about something that I didn’t miss from Reddit.
My friend uses reddit religiously still. And keeps sending me links to posts there. So, I send him lemmy posts.
I got 141 once, that’s 3 digits. Another 3 digit number is 999 which is half way there to 1998 which is 2k anyway. So I basically got 2k and I am famous on Lemmy AMA.
Questions:
- How did you get this good at math?
- Is someone with a post with 142 upvotes even more famous than you or is that impossible?
MAU is currently at about 45k, up from the low point of about 30k six months ago. The exodus spike subsided over a long time but now that users that didn’t stick have been shed, you can see the user base growing again, though slowly.
You forgot ‘getting 200 upvotes on PornHub for that episode of SpongeDick RoundPants’…
/s
My best post has 343 and my best comment has 78 upvotes. I feel useful :)
Honestly I got like 300 something on a progress photo and it sent my confidence to the moon. Prettiest I’ve ever felt.
I feel you
I got 2.7k on a post, but I just got lucky.
Me too, thanks.
My personal record is 1568 score on lemmy.world account
the quality increases as the quantity decreases
Old meme
Can’t be that old, Lemmy was even more minuscule until about a year ago.
there’s someone who uploaded this same meme before the reddit thing but instead of 2000 it said 20
edit: I was linked to the post a few months ago maybe but I can’t find it now
Getting 1 star on GitHub
I’m honored any time a comment passes 10
This man is a hero. Cherish him.
We shall cherish him to the very end
'tis the highest honour
Yeah, except if you are a member of a troll bot farm. Lemmy allows easy creation of accounts and even networks of it so upvotes mean nothing.
I haven’t experienced bot presence on Lemmy nearly as much as other platforms. It feels like Reddit years ago: small, but tight communities.
Why would one though? All the bots are on Twitter now because in order to fight Bots, Elon encouraged massive abuse of bots and ChatGPT with his new monetization scheme that earns you money the more impressions and engagement you get on your posts.
You’re almost there lol
I assume this is how it is, idk I’m new here
