Comment on Some interesting comments on the move
masterofballs@exploding-heads.com 1 year agoI know there are people like that, but that just feels weird to me. I get it for content creation (art, music, code, video, etc) or other things where people have to put in time and effort or provide a community service but have costs to offset. But literally paying someone based on what they say just feels alien to me. Maybe cuz I can’t think of it in terms of IRL interaction without imagining someone paying people to be friends with them.
I get so excited with someone sends me 3 cents. I know i’ll never use it most likely but I mean, you post lots of quality memes. To me it makes sense that people who enjoy it and want it to continue should start tipping.
I like to think of it less of a culture of paying to talk to someone and more of a culture of giving and celebrating each other and prosperity. As apposed to a communist fediverse where everyone complains about billionaires.
