It's a similar dream I have. People need to jump ship and go towards the Alternatives.

[-] samxavia@mastodon.social 1 points 8 months ago

That's fair enough, Yeah love Ko-Fi as I run one for an Org that I helped create.

I guess Ko-Fi and other alternatives could be a good way for people to earn money without all the other crap that normal social media has.

I agree with you there; it hasn't made social media great but lots of people make a living off it and shouldn't lose out due to places like America banning an app they make money off.

As of last November 2 Million users. What compared to the rest of the Fediverse that's very few.

There's plenty of Celebs & public figures using Bluesky, as that's how they started growing their platform originally.

There's also Threads that have more Celebs & public figures including Bill Gates. So I guess Threads might be the way they will publicly get in on the Fediverse. That's when they actually fully flesh their ActivityPub stuff and publicly release it.

Yeah people like that would help greatly even if it’s just for the Reddit like experience they used to get where users can just post to you as a creator

[-] samxavia@mastodon.social 0 points 8 months ago

Yeah it would just be nice to have some more niche communities being run. Maybe I should help start those niche communities or something but I’m not really using Lemmy anymore but still love browsing the content

[-] samxavia@mastodon.social 0 points 8 months ago

The reason it would be good is it would bring those who aren’t creators come across. That would be good to have as it would allow for more people and content to come across. The reason this is good as it would stop people having to mix between social media and the fediverse

That's different from a Protocol that anyone can use, boot up a server that has access to the whole Fediverse active posts & user base.

The Fediverse is making it so much easier for people to have users across their own social network platforms, bending the protocols to work with what vision they have, well still allowing others to access it.

Creators on TikTok in America, if they pass the bill to ban TikTok. What looks likely.

@loops is trying to be some sort of 30 second fediverse alternative.

[-] samxavia@mastodon.social 1 points 8 months ago

I would like to see the Fediverse grow overtime, also we haven't had to deal with a Decentralised network across the internet before, who knows what may happen.

[-] samxavia@mastodon.social 0 points 8 months ago

I was more asking of the things that may replace platforms like TikTok connected to the Fediverse in the future suck as @loops

I understand not earning money from Mastodon or Lemmy, Just like the Video side of the Fediverse needs a way to earn money without the normal ways.
