This functionality enables viewers to contribute to the channel’s success by providing memberships to other viewers, fostering a stronger sense of community and potentially attracting new subscribers. This feature addresses the growing need for flexible support options and diversifies revenue streams beyond traditional advertising and subscriptions. Its introduction reflects the platform’s ongoing efforts to empower creators and enhance viewer interaction.
