It's not the sign-up process that's preventing a mass-migration to #Mastodon. Reduce barriers to entry, sure. But it was not so long that we had to load a CD, type in credentials, and listen to the Internet demons summon our connection.
No, it's that Mastodon isn't suitable for Internet fame. The big accounts will ever come to a place that doesn't support an algorithmic caste system. How'd they know who's more important? If the big accounts won't come neither will anyone else

The big accounts will tell you it's the people on #Mastodon they don't like. But remember, they kept drinking from Twitter's feed long after the milk turned.
Professional posters need a game to beat; a system to rig. They need a marketplace of ideals to sell soundbites and merch.
#Mastodon is closer to a community than a market. You can't sell anything without a market.

@fromjason I'm not sure. Is #Bluesky more suitable for Internet fame? The discussions over here are sometimes a little bit boring. People on #Mastodon are very homogenous what their political convictions are concerned.

@Rascha > Is #Bluesky more suitable for Internet fame?
Time will tell. But I'll say this- the top 100 accounts are Twitter's most marketable personalities of the last decade. Bluesky has zero homegrown celebs, despite some early adopters having a year's head start. That top 100 list was, imo, curated by Bsky Inc.

Side note: I'm not anti-creator or anti-selling things. #Mastodon has some really great creators who do quality work.
Communities can sustain markets. I'm anti-markets cosplaying community.

@fromjason @downey “It’s no good for getting internet famous” isn’t a reason I’ve seen cited for preferring Bluesky to Mastodon. I *have* seen people say that they found Mastodon difficult to use for technical reasons beyond just choosing a server, and that they get way more reply guys and racists in their replies and DMs here than on other platforms.

@LauraLangdon @downey I'm not sure any big account would admit they're not on Mastodon because it's bad for business

@fucinafibonacci @spettacoli ho visto il trailer, mo me lo segno su stremio nei film da vedere. Grazie!

Sembra un tema ricorrente:
Troppi casi covid? Stop ai test
Risultato delle elezioni sfavorevole? Stop al conteggio dei voti
Risultati economici deludenti? Stop ai report

@filippodb @spettacoli no, dai: questo, per esempio, è un filmone https://mastodon.uno/@DLive_Italia/115571826765070449

@fucinafibonacci @spettacoli pure 25 anni fa, il tempo passa, lo andai a vedere al cinema anch’io. Ho letto tutto il foglietto, Bei film che facevano a fine anno 90, inizio 2000, mi parte la tristezza pensando a quello che offre ora il cinema.

@lysander Lo ammetto... Ho deciso per 840 e non 1000 solo perché volevo fare il figo e l'alternativo a tutti i costi... 🤣 🤣 🤣

@timmy I hate how stupid they all are. It's just so embarrassing that these are the people who destroyed American democracy.
It took so little. The dumbest, meanest, internet trolls showed up, claimed to be wallet inspectors, and every major institution from media to universities to tech companies, just handed over their wallets.

@kenobit questo è il periodo di Ghostbusters per Megadrive e non so perché, forse qualcosa nei suoni o chissà che ci ho fatto da bimbo

@filippodb @spettacoli @spettacoli@diggita.com Si, ricordo bene quella notizia. Tra l'altro sarebbe stato impossibile per lui averla cantata considerato che in quegli anni era ancora giovane e non avrebbe potuto avere una voce così 😅
Questo brano è invece stato pubblicato nella versione limitata del suo quinto album da solista.
