That makes sense. Hopefully when Threads joins the Fediverse it will be easier for those who depend on traffic for income to reach a broader audience.
Some tips on the fediverse, in case you’d want to try it out more more:
- Pixelfed might be more suited for a visual artist, and seems to be gaining traction. It of course federates perfectly with Mastodon.
- While Mastodon is to a degree designed specifically not to be Twitter, services like Firefish might scratch the same itch while being more feature rich
- Use hashtags liberally, as people might follow hashtags to find content that interests them (if you post something with #fediverse on a federated server, it will also show up in kbin.social/m/fediverse/microblog)
- Start of with an introduction post (
), include hashtags related to your work
- Don’t start out on a very tiny server if you’re there to try to reach a broader audience. That’s easier from a more central node, unfortunately
Good luck, no matter what you opt for!
