Already had the "exciting news" email from 500PX

They announced more community-centric features I couldn't care less about:

- Better statistics to improve and understand the reach and impact of your photos;
- Top charts and badges that will help expand your exposure and reward your achievements;
- Private messaging to support meaningful communication between members;
- Sub-communities that allow photographers to connect around shared interests, styles, and locations

The number of sales and the dollar amount are the only statistics that matter.
And Badges? Lol!

I'm only interested about this announcement:
If you’re selling photos with us, you’ll be excited to hear that we will be announcing new partnerships that will give your photos an even greater reach, and new markets in which to sell.

More exciting BS

What about sales?

Never had a sale on 500px. Even tiny places like 2020 sell nearly every week.

Exposure doesn´t pay the bills.
