Primary job

AngryPages: An archive home — years, names, proof, search, and paid reading in one product.

X: Fast public reaction and news-cycle conversation.

Reddit: Threaded community discussion.

Facebook: Broad-network posting, pages, and groups.

TikTok: Short-video discovery.

Instagram: Visual presentation.

LinkedIn: Professional signalling.

What you are building

AngryPages: A body of work with a title and a price.

X: A timeline.

Reddit: A comment history.

Facebook: A profile.

TikTok: A back catalogue nobody scrolls.

Instagram: A grid.

LinkedIn: A résumé that posts.

Archive depth

AngryPages: The archive is the product, not leftover storage behind a feed.

X: Weak — old work sinks.

Reddit: Partial, community-first.

Facebook: Weak to partial, poor browsing.

TikTok: Weak, discovery-driven.

Instagram: Weak, visual-first.

LinkedIn: Weak, feed-driven.

Search and browse

AngryPages: Browse by year, day, name, quote, and proof surface.

X: Shallow and feed-driven.

Reddit: Strong topic search, weak author archive.

Facebook: Search exists, discovery is poor.

TikTok: Effectively none.

Instagram: Effectively none.

LinkedIn: Weak.

Who owns the audience

AngryPages: You do, through readers who bought something with your name on it. Everywhere else: The platform does. Reach is lent to you and can be withdrawn without notice or explanation.

Paid access

AngryPages: Public and paid layers inside the same archive, priced by you.

X: Subscriptions, gated behind X Premium and impression thresholds.

Reddit: None native.

Facebook: Externalised.

TikTok: Gifts and Shop, not writing.

Instagram: Externalised.

LinkedIn: None native.

What you have to earn first

AngryPages: An invitation and work good enough to publish.

TikTok Creator Rewards: 10,000 followers, 100,000 views in 30 days, videos over 60 seconds.

X ad share: X Premium, verification, around 500 followers and roughly 5 million impressions over three months, with a $30 payout minimum.

YouTube: 55% on long-form, 45% on Shorts, after thresholds.

What a thousand views is worth

AngryPages: An advertiser pays $5 per 1,000 impressions, and the work stays sellable afterwards.

TikTok: Roughly $0.40 to $1.00 per 1,000 qualified views for most creators.

X: No published rate;

weighted toward engagement from verified users. The number moves whenever the platform decides it should.

Proof and receipts

AngryPages: Press, letters, names, and artifacts sit beside the work.

X: Scattered posts and screenshots.

Reddit: Threads, not an owned layer.

Facebook: Scattered links and comments.

TikTok, Instagram, LinkedIn: Effectively none.

Recurring names

AngryPages: Names and mentions are first-class archive surfaces.

X: Mentions spike, then vanish.

Reddit: People recur in communities.

Facebook: Names recur socially.

TikTok, Instagram, LinkedIn: Not a system, just tags.

Rights and control

AngryPages: The archive, the reader business, and the rights posture stay attached to you. Everywhere else: The platform owns the surface, sets the rules, and changes both.

If gross sales are $10,000

AngryPages: $8,000 to you after fees, from work readers chose to buy.

Social media: Not applicable. None of these platforms sells your writing. They sell your attention, and pay you a share of what advertisers gave them for it.

Best role beside AngryPages

AngryPages: Archive home first.

X: Traffic lane and public proof of life.

Reddit: Community discussion.

Facebook: Broad network.

TikTok: Discovery trailer.

Instagram: Visual trailer.

LinkedIn: Professional distribution.
