Note: This post is from 2019— you can find my 2020 update here . I'm making over $400 / month with my music — mostly through Spotify. Of course that’s not enough to support a full-time artist but that’s not what I’m trying to be. I don't tour, I don't sell merch and I'm not on a label. I j
In the expanding world of AI my heart still lies in AST transforms, browser fingerprinting, and anti-bot circumvention. But my workflow felt... primitive.
