@wendyhk@mastodon.green The Answer to point 1 is easy: everyone is welcome. Point 2: While I agree that monetization is surely helpful to incentivise the use of some platform over the other, I think it is not neccesary to have it. People can monetize other things like books and talks if they like. Currently what is holding back the fediverse is just bad reputation and the homogenity of its userbase. This will solve itself over time.
