Can we have the link changed to be the Medium post[0] that this is copied from please? The site currently linked hijacks the scroll and has annoying popups trying to get you to subscribe.

Great read.
Here's a short summary of my journey as an artist, making a living:
1. Originally launched http://fairpixels.co to design logos on a pay-what-you-want basis
2. To help market this service, I open sourced the unused logo designs I regularly would make for companies over at http://logodust.com. This resulted in a ton of growth, getting covered by sites like TNW and Inc. Giving away stuff for free helped me grow the business beyond myself.
3. Then I recently launched http://flypx.com, to create a more steady income for myself and fellow artists. Where the goal is to spend less time marketing oneself as an artist to attract clients, and constantly provide value to companies. The designers/artists get to work their craft and constantly improve. While the clients get to work with a single designer over a longer period of time for a fraction of the cost.
I had written about this last chapter of my story as an artist and how I got to #1,596/MRR in 48 hours: https://medium.com/art-marketing/how-we-launched-a-new-service-and-got…
It can be a struggle to make a living as an artist, but once you combine entrepreneurial marketing strategies to simplify the flow of work, things can work out pretty well

I wrote an article about this. Basically explaining the difference between designed inconveniences and deceptive patterns: https://medium.com/art-marketing/designed-inconveniences-ux-patterns-t…

You could give individuals a way to manage their own experience. Even small tweaks could make it a lot more pleasant. https://medium.com/art-marketing/putting-out-the-twitter-trashfire-3ac…

This is about removing death threats and abuse, not humour.
Reddit is absolutely not a sanitised part of the internet, and I see far more people complaining there about political correctness than actually restraining what they say. I see dry humour as more of a product of geekiness and a text-only medium, causing non-literalist humour to get a bad reception.
Randi Harper's essay https://medium.com/art-marketing/putting-out-the-twitter-trashfire-3ac… is all about improvements to the mechanism of twitter to enable the users to filter out toxic behaviour - at the moment, if you're a prominent woman on twitter and you offend the wrong people, you'll get drowned in toxic behaviour.
