oh god yeah. Like 80% of the money i raised for Fireside in 2011-2013 on kickstarter was via twitter. no way i could replicate anything like that on any platform today
Kids just getting started trying to be independent artists will never experience or understand what a real "grass roots" support network on Twitter or whatever can be like.
I've mentioned this before but early Kickstarters I ran? 1/3rd of the funding was from Twitter.
