On Bandcamp Friday they take no cut at all. All money goes to artist after payment processor fees. isitbandcampfriday.com

Bandcamp is in the rapid process of enshittification, so this is a temporary solution at best at this point :(

Not really rapid. They were acquired, but I haven’t noticed anything happen yet at all in my entire time using Bandcamp that would be “enshittification”

They already fired half the employees who work for Bandcamp, Bandcamp is dead as an entity, just because is still flying through the air based on its own momentum yet and hasn’t coming crashing back to earth doesn’t mean that isn’t what is about to happen.
Bandcamp has always been amazing because it was run not like a massive corporation and those days are over.
