Aww, forget that blackjack and the Hookers too.

Yeah, that doesn't seem right. Correction 1: I guess, for instance, they may become pay monthly just to have upkeep and moderation covered themselves. That would be an ok thing in my eyes.

But for content creators and stuff, a pay-to-view system isn't really a good idea. Guess it would have to be done through donations instead, as that's the only thing that sort of makes sense.

So with things like @loops on the way, do you think people who will move across to the Fediverse for an alternative if TikTok gets banned should earn there living?

The Fediverse makes sense to me for mass eyes on areas, having your data not sold and stuff, but why can't people earn a living on it like the other parts of the Internet?

So it should be done through donations then?

Ok, why? Donations are easy on any platform, but if you want creators to move across and it makes sense for them, then wouldn't it make sense to find a way they can earn money?

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.

Yeah, that's probably the best way that people would move across. Knowing people are moving across to Threads, It could be a good way (once they join the Fediverse) for people to get involved with it and maybe move across to things like Mastodon and Lemmy.

Yeah, I guess I could see how the UI / UX could be a problem for some people. I'm sure it's something that they will improve on overtime.

For a Lemmy Alternative, there's Kbin what's pretty visually pleasing but can be complex compared to Lemmy to learn.

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.
