1YouTubeanchorPrimary platform with an existing audience of 18,400 subscribers, despite a 44% drop in views since February.
2NewslettersecondaryHigh engagement rate of 47% open and 6.2% click, with a sizable list of 2,100 subscribers, making it a valuable channel for direct communication and community building.
3BlogsecondaryWith 22,000 sessions in the last six months and 41 existing posts, the blog has established itself as a repository of valuable content and can be leveraged for SEO and deeper dives into topics.
4MastodonexperimentalDespite real engagement, the reach is tiny, and it's essential to test whether the audience can be grown or if it remains a niche presence.
5LinkedInexperimentalWith no current presence but 2,900 stale connections, it's worth experimenting to see if professional networking can expand the creator's reach, especially considering the niche of self-hosting and home labs for software developers.
6PodcastdropGiven the solo nature of the operation and the existing demand on time from YouTube and the newsletter, starting a podcast would spread resources too thin and is not recommended at this time.
7InstagramdropThe creator's audience is primarily TV and desktop-focused, and without a visual or aesthetic core to the content, Instagram may not offer the best return on investment.

Questions

What is a credit?

The unit a run is priced in. Each app has a fixed price in credits, shown on its Generate button, and a run costs exactly that. Nothing is metered by length or time.

Am I charged if a run fails?

No. Starting a run holds the credits rather than spending them. The hold becomes a charge only when the run succeeds; a failed or cancelled run releases it.

Can I edit the brief and run it again?

Yes. Change any input and press Generate again, or open an earlier run and choose Adjust and run again to start from a copy of its brief. Uploaded files need attaching again. Each run is new and costs the applet's price; the earlier run stays as it was.

Where are my results kept?

Every run you start is listed under Your runs at /create/runs. Each one opens its own page, where you can read, copy and download the files it produced.
