Really hope it doesn't get delayed but also wish for both the staff not to have mental health issues or us to get another unpolished game released to us.

Would it be best for Bluesky to then take all the celebs & public figures and work out a bridge between protocols, making it hopefully possible to see their stuff on Mastodon and other places?

As users can then choose if they want to use Mastodon or another alternative like Bluesky.

That would be a very cool idea if it could be done across the Fediverse but annoyingly it might only be per-instance especially as most probably don't want to deal with Transactions across ActivityPub as that could get shady real quick.

Good idea though as it would be amazing to spread the cost between the instance you and the receiver are using as well as the person you are donating to.

I read something about ActivityPub 2.0 being pushed for more feedback from the developers of Instances talking, so hopefully that brings more talk and direction between instances.

Lemmy would be amazing if it had some unique communities that people have been looking for, for years on Reddit. It could be a way to get Lemmy to grow.

I know there is crossover between places like Mastodon and Lemmy as at the moment I'm using Mastodon to talk to everyone on Lemmy but certainly could be improved.

Yeah, I get what you mean. It would be good to get more niche communities involved. It's good to see like-minded people, but it's always good for someone to have another opinion that can back up their views with facts.

[-] samxavia@mastodon.social 3 points 8 months ago

Having a guide to the Fediverse (at least Mastodon & Lemmy) could bring the people who are looking for alternatives to possibly see it and read about how you can easily join, which is a really good idea.

[-] samxavia@mastodon.social 3 points 8 months ago

A lot of those people would need to go to there own instances that we would be able to block due to policies on most mastodon instances aligning with Trans Rights as well as other LGBT+ people being safe.

[-] samxavia@mastodon.social 3 points 8 months ago

I'll try to do just that then. Stay active and make this place full of content for people to enjoy.

[-] samxavia@mastodon.social 6 points 8 months ago

I agree with the Ads side of things. That's why I was asking if there was any other sort of model that people could use. I guess donations are probably the only thing that people could widely use.

[-] samxavia@mastodon.social 3 points 8 months ago

To have actual content on here. I hate having to switch between the Fediverse and normal Social Media to get updates on the niche things I enjoy.

@asklemmy How could users Monitise themselves on the Fediverse?

As people possibly move across to the Fediverse to find alternatives, we have to question how people are going to make a living on this amazing platform.

Can it be fully run by donations or is there a better way for people to be paid across the Fediverse?

[-] samxavia@mastodon.social 4 points 8 months ago

Yeah, tbh with all of what has happened on both of platforms, it's sad to still see them alive.

Hopefully, people slowly start moving across or they're some huge outage that happens in the future as it doesn't seem like many more people are willing to move across (at least from my experience).

Who knows, Threads may help the future of the Fediverse with the amount of users that could see the possibility of it across Mastodon, Lemmy and many other instances.

And how do we get everyone else to do it?

@asklemmy What do you think it would take for people to drop Twitter & Reddit and move to the Fediverse?
