Hello fellow authors, as I only truly joined the ranks of authors less than a year ago, I'm quite curious as to what level did the Kindle Unlimited global fund (henceforth mentioned as "jackpot") has been before the pandemic and during it. This is mostly because I've heard various theories about how the pandemic might affect reading time, and find myself curious what the effect might've been on KU specifically.
I know that 2021 began with the jackpot being just a bit above $33M, and has been growing ever since (July jackpot being $38,1M), so I'm curious if it's merely returning to pre-covid numbers, or if it's going above that.
So, if anyone has numbers for 2018-2020 and is willing to share them, I'd appreciate it.
