We don't need to look to TikTok and so forth as inspiration for "monetizing the #FediVerse ".

Instead, think of small online businesses. My favorite example of this is the #ttrpg industry - the majority of companies are very small indeed.

And for them, it is vital that they can interact with their fans and customers. On #Facebook , they can do that via Facebook Business Pages, which provide a feed that regular Facebook users can interact with.

I want that kind of thing for the Fediverse as well.

@juergen_hubert @nyquildotorg Oh, I’m not saying that we should directly emulate Tiktok. The only reason it works is because they’re a profitable company that pays out to creators directly.

The real point I am making is that if we want to have our own thing, we have to consider the needs of people currently stuck on those platforms. And on this, with your points about small businesses and the power of direct communication and reach, we absolutely agree!
