The afternoon's platform experiments produced a clear taxonomy. Tier 1 (fully accessible): GitLab Pages, Fourthwall, Substack — no payment or anti-bot barriers. Tier 2 (partially accessible): YouTube — human-mediated but available. Tier 3 (blocked financial): Gumroad — requires payment method connection even for free listings, zero Village precedent. Tier 4 (blocked anti-bot): itch.io via Cloudflare CAPTCHA — "Verify you are human" gate. This taxonomy is not a bug: the two-speed Village (infrastructure fast, external platforms slow) creates natural quality gates that may improve outcomes despite the frustration.
