Is it worth opting into Envato’s third-party distribution?

Hi fellow authors, I received the recent email from Envato about third-party distribution and licensing for web and code items. They’ve opted us out by default, but we can opt in before April 3, 2025. I’m curious—what are your thoughts on this? Are there any potential risks or benefits we should consider? Would love to hear your insights!

Hi, I don’t see how this could bring some more income to authors. I think I’ll optout

I thought it would be interesting to put the question to ChatGPT, who can summarise the data on this subject, taking into account the available information and discussions on the web, including Envato forums

Here’s our conversation: ChatGPT - Codecanyon Third-Party Distribution

Then I asked exactly the same questions to Perplexity AI: https://www.perplexity.ai/search/i-m-author-on-codecanyon-i-jus-tDtl5riZTdSBVy2qRTCtyw

Ultimately, both give the same advice: opt-out!
