Debbie Goldsmith 🏳️⚧️♾️🇺🇦If you want to know why #creators are still on #birdsite even knowing it’s a cesspool, ask Willie Sutton, the bank robber. When asked why he robbed banks, he replied “That’s where the money is.” Money aside, if you are a journalist or activist or academic or NASA trying to get a message out, birdsite is still where the eyeballs are. Let’s keep growing the Fediverse and they’ll come. It may take a while.
"Extinct" Onceler@dgoldsmith I think it's more like missionary work at this point. They're trying to convert the post-factual universe back to reality. Magical business plan, that.
@aka_quant_noir Not the ones I still follow. They are totally aware of what’s going on but still hope to reach their followers who are still there.
@dgoldsmith Well I hope they adjust their business model. And I hope they find the eyeballs they're looking for aren't where they thought they were.
@aka_quant_noir Greta Thunberg and NASA many others don’t have a business model. They believe they need to be on birdsite to reach the most people.
