From the authors I've chatted with, the argument over whether going wide or sticking with KU is better is still very much ongoing. From one author who went wide, the income from Amazon dropped about 15%-20% and the income from other sites came in at about 20%-35% (including income from Kobo Plus) so a net gain. OTOH, other authors have reported the drop in income from Amazon after going wide is not compensated for by the income from other sites. Plus if you get above a certain point on Amazon, their advertising starts working for you without needing any effort on your part so if you go wide, you end up doing more work on the business side of being an author.
