Let’s say you receive a DM or a comment that says: “Brooke Tilli ahh bro why are you hiding in exclusive.”

It sounds like a meme, a quote, or perhaps a desperate plea from a fan. But if you are searching for the context behind this specific string of words, you aren't alone. It points to a growing trend in the creator economy: the "Ghosting" of content and the migration behind paywalls.

Anyone else feel this way, or am I just cheap?
