The bottom line.
Other platforms save you $20-30/month on subscription fees. But if you're not selling from your galleries, or paying commission on a free or entry plan when you do, you're losing thousands per year.
PixelPort photographers average $800/month in gallery sales. At 0% commission, that's $9,600/year you keep.
