"mastodon is dead" directly translates to "i don't see a way to monetize my presence here" in shithead speak
@maloki to me the key is the sharing bit :)
most everyone seems to be here primarily to meet interesting people, share what cool stuff they're doing, and see what cool stuff everyone else is doing. they're sharing with everyone! (and it seems like you've taken on about 3 full-time positions ;)
tbqf, i think most people are _too_ afraid to post their patreon/etc. all this cool stuff doesn't happen without time, effort and the ability to take care of yourself!
<3
@twitter oh yeah, I feel like that too.
We don't have enough to hire two people additionally to me, so I'm in a catch all situation...
@maloki *nods* plus in like 90% of the situations that need to be dealt with, you're "damned if you do, damned if you don't", it can get exhausting.. <3
@twitter Capitalists cannot imagine how something can function in a system thats not profit driven

@autonomous_hippopotamus there was a bit of a running joke for a while with the whole "mastodon is dead" hot take some people have..

@twitter while the rest of us share our work, and share our patreon or similar! Curious!
