    Yeah, it’s the same problem for people who rely on exposure to get business. Artists, for example, are pretty much locked into Twitter. Because they rely on a large user base for their work to be seen and spread. And switching to another site (even if it has better quality of life) isn’t feasible if the massive user base doesn’t already exist there.

        And that’s exactly what needs to happen. Organizations post to both and get the benefits of both. Even better, it allows for better segmentation of user types. Lemmy and Mastodon users tend towards a different demographics by self selection with no privacy infringements needed. The same applies to the classic differences between Twitter and Facebook.

        That depends on the kind of art you do. The more “lucrative” kinds of art is not allowed on Instagram.
