Are any of you content creators? Artists? Storytellers? Writers? I believe this is a big part of what’s missing from the Fediverse. Sure there’s work out there but I believe it can be so much better. If any of you are please point us to your work, how we can support you and please be sure to share your work on the Fedi. For those that aren’t but would like to be let’s share ideas. How can we make this a more creative space and more welcoming space to creatives?

Same for non fiction writing. If people can see how you might make a living from what you make, they love to downvote it to oblivion. Guess we’re all suppposed to have office wage jobs all day and write fanfic for free at night. It definitely keeps me from ever posting about my writing.

It’s really bothersome. Particularly with Mastodon, users want to finger wag those that remain on big social, yet they also don’t want people to do the things that help them survive or express their creativity. It’s conflicting and nonsensical. When decentralisation should be pitched to creatives so they can down their content and take out the middleman which is big social. It is honestly disappointing
