So let me be very clear; this is just Maslow's hierarchy of needs. Artists who come here fearing imminent homelessness are going to be preoccupied with gaining enough eyeballs to make that not happen. Building a community is a tier above that in the hierarchy of needs and is not something people are gonna be shooting for if they might starve within the next few weeks. Once they're stable, almost all of them will move on to building a community because community and audience aren't even mutually exclusive. And scolding people who are frantic about basic survival about their lack of noble goals for using this platform isn't helping

Academics will post like 17 brutal comments eviscereting your work and then end with “great paper thanks for sharing” 😂​

…Anyway this is why the playdate is cool

Apparently there is an ongoing discussion about self-promotion for artists and other creators here in the Fediverse today.

My only take is, if you are a creator, artist, musician or a small business and I see you post something about works that you sell or get compensated for, I will boost you! 😊

mastodon only post 🤫

I'm evangelizing for Mastodon because Twitter is likely toast, but I also want to be very clear that Black and disabled folks have built community infrastructure on Twitter that is real and meaningful.

We all need to be mindful of what Elon is destroying, and who it harms most.
