Omg I'm internet famous

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

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.

@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.

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.

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
