OK, this debate is worth some actual data. If I’ve got this right, to figure out how many TTRPG creators are full time vs. “have a day job” we need to define a few things, starting with: - the scope of what we count as “working in TTRPGs” - when a freelancer counts as “full time” in TTRPG

That's absolutely not true. And it's less true now than at any point in the last 50 years. Look at crowdfunding.

This kind of thing was one of the challenges of the Actual Play book, where I surveyed creators to ask how many of them considered AP a meaningful part of their income (defined as they wished — I didn’t ask numbers).
