I like what they currently are a lot and if I had to choose one or the other I would pick what we have now. but more ideally I’d like a mix of both.

YAAAY! This is motivating me to add premium benefits to my game! THANKS!!!
Yay!! it a party time! 
Thank You!!
Thanks roblox! This helps the developers with a. being rewarded well and b. not having to push gamepasses in front of people’s faces every 5 seconds. 
It is most likely because of less premium players. As you may know having premium doesn’t give much. But maybe I’m wrong.
Premium payouts are determined by the percent and playtime of your premium players, which determines a score. That score determines a Robux amount.
Increasing this by 75% is nearly doubling the amount, which is significant. Because of this change I will now earn a minimum wage salary.

Huge help to the developers, thanks Roblox!
Holy cow… I’ve been inactive since late last summer, and came back to this!? Amazing! Hopefully some real money can start being generated soon, this is especially beneficial for smaller developers.
For anyone that doesn’t have much experience with Premium Payouts, I can tell you this:
With premium payouts, I am earning ~~81% more USD now than I would have 12 months ago(before Premium Payouts got released to any capacity)
As in, ~~45% of my income will now be coming from Premium Payouts.
A raise of ~1.8X in the span of 12 months is crazy.
That could take someone earning 40,000 USD in January 2020 to ~72,000 USD today
Source: The combined sales and premium payout data from my two games(The Conquerors 3, Store Empire), Friday January 15, 2021 through Thursday February 25, 2021(to avoid Christmas sales spike, and still have every week day represented equally)
Note: Premium payout figures can oscillate substantially, and different games will consistently reel in a different percentage of premium playout time.

This is amazing! It’s a great opportunity to support developers across the platform. 
Awesome! This’ll definitely help us smaller developers with monetization, especially since I don’t put many developer products or gamepasses, aside from donations inside of my games.
This is great and honestly a good idea. Developers can earn more without making their game more interesting. Good job Roblox.

I honestly thought this was a joke!! Then I remembered it’s not April yet. Honestly, I can’t thank you enough!! As someone who doesn’t want to spend money on robux for advertising (although I have occassionally), this is huge.
So Happi. Thank you for helping the developers!
This is real stones (please don’t remove this staff, it’s just a funny meme)
