Twitter has started giving some users a portion of ad revenue, for ads beside their tweets [1]. Which would presumably mean that more tweets, and more followers, mean more money.

Of course, on most platforms only a tiny fraction of influencers make a decent living. So it's certainly not the case that everyone is making money.

advertising revenue share, paid newsletters, ebooks, courses, side-hustles, indie hacker apps... basically any way you can make money online.

From the platforms, generated by ad views by followers. Or more accurately, ad clicks downstream from that.
