Of the three, the one that gives me best results is being a Brave creator. Mainly because I get tips from Youtube and Github (where I'm more active, as my personal website is a bit neglected.)
Web and content monetization fluctuates a little (or a lot) because it's done with crypto currencies. I make $5-15/month (again I'm not as active as others), but Bitcoin boomed, and the $80 I made last year multiplied by 10 in a few weeks without doing anything. Again, not enough to retire, but enough for pocket money.
I just started as an Amazon affiliate and have generated $0 so far (in 2 months). I get clicks, but if they don't drive sales, you get nothing.
More active people, or people with more followers and a bigger impact, will probably make considerably higher amount than me.
It would be great if they added StackOverflow as a channel for Brave. It actually would make sense: people making micropayments to the solutions that helped them... but it could trigger a flood of bad answers just hoping to get something.
yes it would be good if I can use all my 5700 answers to get some money but I doubt SO will agree with such idea. Curation is already hard without money income.
I don't know if they have to agree or not. It's a matter of having a way to associate accounts, and I don't think that the StackOverflow API allows for that. Then the browser adds the tip button in the address bar or within the UI as it does on Twitter:

Thanks! definitely worth trying
