A lot of youtubers have their own discord servers. I’ve seen 1 or 2 IGers with discord servers. We could try to get them to bridge to a matrix room? How do we go about this?

For IGers, we could also try to say something like, ‘put a link to a specific mastodon/pixelfed account that mirrors your content in your bio and i’ll manually crosspost material to that pixelfed’.

Other ideas? And how do we get them to reply?

    How did they end up on these platforms?

    Because their friends/celebrities are on them. The network effect.

    I guess my conclusion is that they need to be sold on the additional freedoms and benefits they get by using it, it being similar to use isn’t enough.

    IMO we don’t have to sell them on benefits - it’s not like IG sold them on the benefits aside from network effect.

    IMO
